How does Hexagram 42 apply to my question?

Judgment: “INCREASE. It furthers one to undertake something. It furthers one to cross the great water.” Image: “Wind and thunder: the image of INCREASE. Thus the superior man: If he sees good, he imitates it; if he has faults, he rids himself of them.” Changing line 6: “He brings increase to no one. Indeed, someone even strikes him. He does not keep his heart constantly steady. Misfortune.” Through Shao Yong’s image-number lens, wind (巽) = 6 = early summer, southeast, 4‑5 months; thunder (震) = 3‑4 = spring, east, 3‑4 months. The overlap predicts delivery within 3‑6 months, most likely by late spring/early summer. The top line warns against forcing the outcome; maintain calm and let the logistics flow.

“我在咸鱼上买东西能收到货吗”

The Hexagram Speaks

The hexagram 42 (Increase) shows wind over thunder, signalling a gentle push that helps things move forward. Your purchase is poised to advance, yet the top changing line warns of mis‑timing if you force the outcome. Internally the thunder energy suggests a 3‑4 month readiness window; externally the wind points to a 4‑5 month window. Expect the package to arrive within the next 3‑6 months, most likely by late May or early June.
