The trouble with impetration

Jack Balkin (The Laws of Change) and Richard Rutt (Zhouyi) both explain the distinction between two kinds of oracle: impetrative and oblative. Since they give subtly different definitions, I’ll content myself with sharing what I’ve understood from them both. An oblative oracle is one that’s given to you: an omen or synchronicity, such as a… Continue Reading

Asking for awareness

In the past I’ve done a lot of readings, for myself and other people, seeking advice about what to do and how to do things. I expect I’ll do a lot more of them, too, because they are direct, clear, straightforward and massively useful. ‘How can I do this?’ ‘What’s my best path?’ ‘What if… Continue Reading

A reading for Jennifer

Because I’ve… Continue Reading

What Yi answers

It’s one of those FAYQ*: “Does the Yijing always answer the question you ask?” My standard answer is yes, almost always. And yes, it is always good to assume in the first place that this is what’s happened, and you’re looking at an answer to your question. The alternative – always wondering whether perhaps it… Continue Reading

Gifts of time from the I Ching

I wrote a few days back about how the I Ching unavoidably, undeniably, takes time. I also touched on how it gives time back, re-tuned and humming. Setting aside enough time for a reading means greater clarity, better decisions, and just a more grounded, fluent experience. Also, it makes for much stronger focus and attention:… Continue Reading
