I brought a 56 plot into a 62 configuration and try to make it evolve/change into a fruitful 55 through minor changes only and without addressing the major arcana to be cured, imposed by 49 and 51 across VC st.

Item 1 would be the invasive 葛, the kudzu in the yard/garden (YarG).

In the 62 configuration, 小過 (xiǎo guò), "Small Exceeding" or "preponderance of the small" & "small surpassing",
  • the inner trigram is ☶ ( gèn) bound = () mountain,
  • & the outer one is ☳ ( zhèn) shake = () thunder.
i.e. the derelict house @ 62 VC is the rock and the garden the image of smallness; whilein 56the inner trigram, ☶ ( gèn) bound = () mountain, is the assertive assumption creative of the mountainous ego, based on the turmoil generated as wintry 51 & icy 52 met and fought to be atop of each other.
Trying to remedy this occurrence through a footage modificationturning ☶ ( gèn) bound = () mountain into , the Clinging ☲ ( lí) radiance = () firewould have been and still be premature if the ongoing unmaintainance was not properly attended totackled and dealt with.

I.e. the bile/choler* & terror issue, a combination/precipitation resulting into 'nGsT**:
  • ''n' for Anneau*** (ring/sphincter/ the simplified & variant traditional form of )
  • 'G' for ♋ & GGᄁ(Gut/Gucci's 'TyGer' & double G [Guccio Gucci] bag/belt emblem)
  • 'sT' for ☶ ( gèn) bound = () mountain (स्तूप stūpa/stupefaction²/stone/stoned/StooGe/Standing)

and the quest for the Gra(y)al (Grail) & the elixir (at first the graying of GGG [1986]) it may contain, which is I as 1.

°°° elixir (plural elixirs) from Medieval Latin elixir, from Arabic اَلْإِكْسِير‎ (al-ʾiksīr), from Ancient Greek ξηρίον (xēríonmedicinal powder), from ξηρός (xērósdry” [cf. 乾]).

    • 2002, Philip Ball, The Elements: A Very Short Introduction, Oxford 2004, p. 59:

** angst (uncountable) borrowed from German Angst or Danish angst; attested since the 19th century in English translations of the works of Freud and Søren Kierkegaard. Initially capitalized (as in German and contemporaneous Danish), the term first began to be written with a lowercase "a" around 1940–44. The German and Danish terms both derive from Middle High German angest, from Old High German angust, from Proto-Germanic *angustiz.
  1. Emotional turmoil; painful sadness.
    • 1979, Peter Hammill, Mirror images:
      I've begun to regret that we'd ever met / Between the dimensions. / It gets such a strain to pretend that the change / Is anything but cheap. / With your infant pique and your angst pretensions / Sometimes you act like such a creep.
    • 2007, Martyn Bone, Perspectives on Barry Hannah (page 3)
      Harry's adolescence is theatrical and gaudy, and many of its key scenes have a lurid and camp quality that is appropriate to the exaggerated mood-shifting and self-dramatizing of teen angst.
  2. A feeling of acute but vague anxiety or apprehension often accompanied by depression, especially philosophical anxiety.

Angst f (genitive Angstplural Ängste)

  1. fear; fright; anxiety

Usage notes

  • A distinction may be made (or may formerly have been made) between Angst meaning “fear as an emotional condition” and Furcht meaning “fear as the reasonable reaction to a threat”.
  • In contemporary German, the two words are widely treated as synonyms, with Angst being preferred over Furcht.
  • The exception to this is that Furcht can also express a respectful fear, which Angst cannot. For example, Furcht vor dem Vater ("fear of one's father") may be an exceeding amount of respect, whereas Angst vor dem Vater clearly implies parental misconduct.

*** Anneau: from Latin ānellus, diminutive of ānus (ring), from Proto-Indo-European *h₁eh₂no- (ring). Cf. sphincter, from Middle French sphincter, from Late Latin sphincter, itself a borrowing from Ancient Greek σφιγκτήρ (sphinktḗrband, contractile muscle), from σφίγγω (sphíngōI bind tight). Possibly related to sphinx, "the strangler".

² stupefaction (countable and uncountable, plural stupefactions) from Middle French stupéfaction, from Latin stupefaciō (strike dumb, stun with amazement, stupefy), from stupeō (I am stunned, speechless) (English stupidstupor) + faciō (do, make).
  1. The state of extreme shock or astonishment.
  2. A state of insensibility; stupor.
