Luis, I can't find prediction examples in the two books that I have of her, The I Ching and Its Associations and The I Ching and You. Or am I missing something?
Oh, I forgot. You ARE the boss.
Hi Harmen, Nope, nothing in "I Ching and Mankind," but, not sure if this is what you are looking for but go back to your copy of "The I Ching and its Associations". Starting on page 70, there are 25 case studies of readings and outcomes. Short ones and to the point but interesting, nevertheless.Luis, I can't find prediction examples in the two books that I have of her, The I Ching and Its Associations and The I Ching and You. Or am I missing something?
Hi Luis, the cases that she gives are not 'prediction' related, they are more insight and what-to-do questions. I need plain fortune telling examples, with the actual outcome.
Hi Jesed
Thanks for the inspiring post. If your questions are in electronic form (so easy to copy and paste), would you be willing to post some of them online along with the prediction and whether it was right?
There is a saying about papal elections : ' he who goes in a pope comes out a cardinal.' Ratzinger, a clear frontrunner, proved an exception to the rule.Hi Bostonian
I did the same for 7 years (more than 200 cases). In my case, every "predictive" question was phrased with time scope and clear circumstances, in order to easily judgment about right/wrong.
My results was interesting... they show less about Yijing and more about my learning curve
The % of rights against wrongs changed according with the method used to interpretation, and increased with time/practice.
From that, I got the conclusion:
a) najia method is more accurate for merly predictive questions (yes/no questions, will X happen..etc)
b) no basic/mayor contradiction between najia conclusion and text-based conclusion, but diferent level of details (more accurate for prediction with najia; more insightful for counseling with text)
c) andree's method is more accurate for calendar calculation.
The last year of this experiment, the % of "rights" was around 92% , with another 5% in doubt (I mean, you can understand it as right, but not as evident fact), and 3% of wrongs.
One of the "wrongs", Luis may remember it, was the name of the Pope elected after JPII. The answers clearly pointed to Ratzinger, but my interpretation say another one. In that case again, the case shows more about me than the Yi: it was my antagonism against Ratzinger what lead me astray in the interpretation.

Hi Peter
Ratzinger is not a benedictine.
The chosen name of Benedict is not because of Saint Benedict, but because of Benedict XV.
Benedict XV was one of the Popes on the antimodernist campaign in the Catholic Church.
Best wishes
In regard to the modernisation which took off in the 60's, look what it did to the church. The people voted with their feet & walked out.
Searching in vain for papers for two weeks. Then asking Yi and finding them within 5 minutes - does that qualify as 'prediction'?
The answer was 49.1 changing to 31. I had no yellow oxhide in my house, but a big chair of polished yellow wood which looked a lot like leather. The papers were between the lattice of the back and the pillow.
.Another one, that caused some discussion in the forum, was about hex 1 unchanging for prediction about one married man. I predicted conflicts and further divorce -when all the others readers predicted good fortune- 3 or 4 months later, he said they divorced
Another conflictive prediction I recall was about hex 23 unchanging for health of the mother's consultant. My prediction -seize the time you have left to help her pass away in peace- arose a lot of angry comments against me; some even said i was into black magic. That was a really sensible case, beacuse the consultant was clinical depressed and the deep issue was he thought he wasn't a good son to his mother. After some days, he said his mother did passed away, but the time they spend together help him to be in peace, because he did everything he could do to help her in her final days.
. The Yijing as a lost property office. Wonderful to hear.Searching in vain for papers for two weeks. Then asking Yi and finding them within 5 minutes - does that qualify as 'prediction'?
Maybe you've got the only Yijing that actually works?
I wonder whether your predictions would stand up to scientific scrutiny or would they be regarded as anecdotal evidence?
Bob
You claim to have studied the Yijing for several years. How can't you know -then- a) diferent readers usually arrive to diferent conclusions; b) there are many diferent schools to make a reading.
For the case of hex 1 unchanging: I was the only one in that case using the najia system. That explain why I arrive to a diferent conclusion than others.
diferent readers usually arrive to diferent conclusions;
