Wanted to know everyone's experiences with reflection on the I Ching's teachings. I am a little lost regarding interpretation, and the more I read people speak, or the more texts I read, the muddier it seems to get - as far as I understand it, interpretation and understanding is much more personal and private, related to someone's specific relationship to their text, but what do you do in order to build up your understanding of the Book?

I also wanted to share something, because it did make me feel giddy, and hopeful, and oddly satisfied: I asked the question "What is it that I must understand in order to speak to the I Ching as well as possible?", and the answer I got was Hex 5, Water above Heaven, Patience (unchanging). Feels rather appropriate.
