A round-up of readings from the run-up to the election, with thanks to Google. The earliest pertinent reading I found was from 24th May: “What will an Obama presidency bring to the nation?” Now, there’s some ambiguity around this reading: for one thing, by July the original poster was saying the question had been different;… Continue Reading

No time for the I Ching
Ever heard this? “I know the I Ching works, but I don’t have time for it.” Ever said it? I have… which is more embarrassing than I care to think about. Naturally I have endless time to work on readings for clients, and work out the best possible ways to help people learn the I… Continue Reading

But they… Continue Reading
The Quoteable I Ching
You’ll want to subscribe to the Quoteable I Ching blog, if you haven’t already. Despite the title, it doesn’t just contain quotations from the I Ching, but lovely lucid thoughts on how other things – poems, images, quotations – reflect the hexagrams. Or how the hexagrams reflect in other things. I enjoyed all the posts… Continue Reading
