Her son nodded constantly while memorizing lessons

17 July 2025Jinan, Shandong Translated by AI

A client asked about her son’s nodding habit when studying. I did an I Ching divination and listed home details to check.

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

Zongyuan, my son keeps nodding in class now. It’s not the kind of nodding from tics. He only does it when he’s memorizing texts, like a compulsion. He doesn’t do it when he’s not in class.

师父，我儿子现在上课总是点头，还不是抽动症的点头，是一开始背书就要点着背，类似于强迫症一样，但是不上课就不会这样

Zongyuan, is there a way to fix this?

师父看看这个有办法解决吗？

Zongyuan

I’ll take a look in a bit 😀

一会我看看😀

Client

Okay.

嗯嗯

A few notes: 1. Both the original and changed hexagrams show metal controlling wood. That means there is room for this situation to ease — it just depends on the relative strength of metal and wood. 2. [redacted] counters the metal, so the metal is out of balance. The metal here, in the lower position, represents supporting things in the home: chairs, tables, hinges on wardrobe doors that have come loose — like fallen screws, wobbly chairs. Tighten them up. 3. His hair or nails are a bit long. Trim them; give him a shorter haircut. 4. The houseplants have been growing new leaves lately. Either the soil is running low, or you just watered them recently so the soil is soft and settled. Prune the plants into a neat shape, add more soil to the pot, and put clay pebbles on top to hold the soil in place.

几个提示: 1 本卦和变卦都是金制木，说明这个情况本身有缓解的余地，只是金木的力量强弱对比关系。 2 [redacted]来逆金，金有问题，这个金在下是支撑的东西，家里的椅子桌子，衣柜门的铰链这些有松动，比如说掉落子，椅子摇晃等等，需要想办法给它拧紧。 3 头发或者指甲相对长了，需要修剪，给孩子剪个再短些的发型。 4 家里的植物最近在长叶子，土不够了，或者是最近刚刚加过水，土有点软了塌了。需要修剪植物，剪一个精神的造型，然后在盆里加上土质，最上层加上陶土粒，可以护住土层。

5. [redacted] is Yi You. By the end of this month, earth will have its root. Look around the house — in the last two months, did any rabbit or goat shaped figurines or stuffed toys come into the house? Find them and get rid of them.

5 [redacted]是乙酉，这个月末土通根了，家里找一找，在最近两个月里是不是进来了兔子或者羊造型的摆件，玩偶，找出来给它处理掉。

6. Something that shouldn’t be sprouting has sprouted — something bacterial, most likely mold. It’s near the bathroom or the shoe area, close to water. If you find it, clean it thoroughly. Also check for oil stains on fabric — oil stains on clothes that didn’t wash out. Or clothes with holes in them; you can throw those out too.

6 有一个不该发芽的东西发芽了，长了细菌类的东西，多数是发霉，这个位置在洗手间或者是放鞋子位置的附近，靠近水，有的化要清理干净，然后是检查是不是布料上有油渍，衣服上有油渍，没洗掉的，也可能是衣服裤子上有破洞的，这衣服也可以不要了。

7. Shoes are off. In the hexagram, shoes are metal, and right now the metal is being countered. So there’s a pair of shoes in the shoe cabinet with the sole coming unglued, or the heel is very worn down. Look carefully and throw them away directly.

7 鞋子不好，卦里的鞋子是金，现在被逆，那么在鞋柜里有一个鞋子是开胶的，或者根部磨损很厉害，仔细找找看，直接扔掉。

8. Then think back — did you buy anything with tassels, things that hang down strand by strand? Could be a clothing decoration or a home decor piece. Don’t keep those either.

8 然后是回忆下有没有买回来流苏状的东西，一根一根垂下来的，可能是衣服装饰，或者是装饰品，也不保留。

9. Someone in the family has skin issues, like itchiness, or scalp problems. That needs treatment too — it can affect the child.

9 家里人有皮肤问题，比如瘙痒，或者头皮问题，需要治疗，也会影响到孩子。

10. After making these adjustments, wait a while. In the Jia Shen month, when [redacted] — that is, when the Qian hexagram arrives — this symptom will get better. For short-term relief, when the child is reviewing or memorizing texts, he can squeeze two [redacted] or squeeze a [redacted] — it will help a little.

10 调整完之后，等待一段时间，甲申月，[redacted]了也就是乾卦到了，这个症状就能好。在短期内，可以让孩子在复习背书的时候捏两[redacted]者是捏个[redacted]可以缓解一些。

Got it?

收哈

As soon as you said it, I knew right away. There’s mold on the washing machine seal. My kid’s clothes are covered in oily fingerprint marks that won’t wash out. Tables and chairs have loose screws. I have a pretty expensive pair of shoes with the sole coming unglued — I couldn’t bear to throw them away, so they’ve just been sitting in the shoe cabinet.

您一说我立马就知道了洗衣机垫圈里有霉斑孩子的衣服上都是油的手指印洗不掉桌子椅子有掉螺丝的我有个比较贵的鞋子开胶了不舍得扔一直在鞋柜里放着

The kid’s hair is long, like a kiwi fruit. Haven’t cut it yet.

娃头发长了像个猕猴桃一直还没剪
