Publisher's Synopsis

The "I Ching" is a powerful oracle or divinatory system with roots that go back over 3000 years. Its divinatory core, the oldest and most complex system to survive into modern times, consists of a set of 64 six-line figures, referred to as hexagrams. Each figure has a name and a group of short phrases associated with it, and the combinations of text and figures act as mirrors for the unconscious forces shaping any given moment, problem or situation and connecting it with unseen forces behind it.;This translation aims to re-present the work as a way of connection with the unconscious, and with the creative imagination that underlies all philosophies and systems.
