House and family

She asked about a house she was interested in, via I Ching divination

29 June 2025Jinan, Shandong Translated by AI

She was considering an old apartment and asked for a divination. The reading matched details like a trash bin downstairs and ongoing drain repairs.

The screenshots were masked before they were posted. Names, avatars and birth details are covered in the originals; where a translated line reads [redacted], the source was covered too and nothing has been guessed.

Client
The kitchen could be converted into a master bedroom.
厨房可以改主卧
It can be moved to the southwest.
可以改到西南
The bathroom can be moved to the west.
厕所可以改到正西
Could you cast a divination for me? I'm kind of interested in this place.

A few notes: 1. The house itself is a second-hand, older unit. The internal hexagram is Water Over Heaven (Xu), which is passable, but the external environment is not good. It is not favorable for physical health. Also, the entire area has slightly sunken terrain, or there is a lot of standing water. 2. [redacted] hexagram, there is a sign of odors. It is likely close to trash bins, or there is a wet market, foot massage places, or it is untidy. 3. Water rises upward without restraint, so in terms of the floor plan, either the lighting is poor, or the relationship or directional relationship between the bathroom and kitchen has yin encroaching on yang. 4. The actual floor plan matches this too: there are windows on the north and east sides, the 'supporting mountain' hexagram is missing, and instead the south and west sides are walls. This is not favorable for living.
几个提示: 1房子本身是二手房老旧,内部是水天需卦,尚可,但是外环境不好。不利于身体健康。以及这个区域整个地势有点下陷,或者是积水多。 2 [redacted]卦,有味道的提示,容易距离垃圾桶近,或者有菜场,洗脚的,不整洁。 3 水往上生,没有制约,那么在户型上要么是采光有问题,要么是洗手间和厨房之间的关系或者方向关系上是以阴犯阳。 4 实际户型图也是如此,北边是窗户,东边是窗户,靠山卦缺失,反而是南边和西侧是墙,不利于居住。
Got it 😀
收哈😀

That's exactly right. It's an old community, and there's a trash bin downstairs.

The hexagram does not lie.
卦不虚
Client
Update: the building's sewer pipes are currently being renovated.
反馈:楼里下水道正在改造

If there's an odor, I won't look into it further for now. Let's talk again in a few days [emoji]
有味儿,就不看了 过几天再说[emoji]

Client
Also, it's the top floor, but someone is growing vegetables on the roof above.
然后顶层,但是楼上有人在这个楼顶种菜

Haha [emoji], that also causes odors.
哈哈[emoji],那也是有味
Client
So that's what 'water rises upward' means.
所以水往上生
It's really true. Teacher, your divinations are never wrong.
