Inhaltsangabe

The ancient Chinese oracle known as the I Ching has survived millennia to become one of the most venerated sources of guidance in all matters of life-spiritual and secular. It is composed of 64 hexagrams with corresponding text that describes the hexagrams' significance. It has a fascinating history and contains a wide range of symbolism. In this book Kim-Anh Lim an experienced I Ching consultant gives a comprehensive overview of the I Ching's evolution in Chinese history and philosophy and explains how to cast and interpret the hexagrams. She also includes complete interpretations based on her exceptional insight into the ancient text for each hexagram and its changing lines. This book holds a wealth of information. Kim-Anh Lim takes you step-by-step through the components of the hexagrams so you can better interpret how the hexagrams you cast for yourself apply to your particular situation. If you are familiar with the I Ching you know how mystifying it can be to work with the symbolism when you try to apply it to your own particular situation. Kim-Anh Lim's explanation of the structure of the hexagrams will actually give you the ability to synthesize your own interpretations; you'll gain an understanding of why a hexagram means what it does rather than having to memorize its significance. She has also added a grading system for each of the hexagram lines so that you can tell at a glance how critical or fortuitous your situation is.
