Daydreaming and wishful thinking - 4.4.5>6, then 6.4.5>4

Hello, today I had a day off and spent most of the day pottering about and daydreaming. Once I realised I was doing nothing but fantasising about unlikely scenarios I checked in with the yi, which gave me 4.4.5>6 - and a warning from Wing about being consumed by fantasies. Later I was leafing through a self help book which advised allowing oneself to daydream about possibilities. I asked yi whether I'm just feeding myself with desire if I do that. I got the hex reversed, so this time 6.4.5>4.

Can anyone help interpret? I thought it was interesting that the cast came back in reversed form when the question was somewhat rephrased. I'm not totally clear on the conflict aspect, unless 6 can also be seen as stress - daydreaming perhaps as a response to stress? I enjoy daydreaming (especially about things like wedding parties, outfits and organised dance routines, which is an embarrassing admission) but I'm not sure how useful it is, especially when I'm lost in wishful thinking...
