How the I Ching Approaches This
The I Ching views moving in together as a significant deepening of commitment that tests the relationship in new ways. Sharing space reveals dimensions of compatibility that dating cannot — how you each handle daily rhythms, conflict, and the mundane realities of life together. The Oracle helps you see whether the foundation is strong enough for this step, whether the timing is right, and whether you're moving in for the right reasons rather than convenience or fear of losing the relationship.
