Synopsis

This revised edition is the first complete translation of the classic Chinese Oracle of Change. The 3,000-year-old text is rich in wisdom and imagery that can still provide answers in today's troubled times. Inspired by C G Jung's insights into the psyche, and researched for over 50 year5s by the Eranos Foundation of Switzerland, this edition presents the I Ching as a psychological tool - a way of connecting with the creative imagination. The 128 page Concordance provides an invaluable tool for understanding the divinatory context of the words and phrases used in the book.

About this title

Synopsis:

This is the oldest Chinese divinatory oracle, with roots going back over 3000 years; its 64 hexagrams were devised to mirror the unconscious forces that shape events and moments in our lives. This English translation, based on 40 years of research, has six pages on each hexagram. It aims to help readers to recognize and resolve anxieties, fears and desires, and to connect with their unconscious and creative imagination.
