Hello Liquidity. I have a few questions:... I thought it might be a fun experiment to see if we can come up with links between judgments and images for all the hexagrams.
Hello Liquidity. I have a few questions:
- Is the connection you're looking at here between the hexagram images and the oracle (judgement) text?
- Or between the image text and the oracle text?
- And when you say the 'image' do you (or can we) include looking at the imagery of the trigrams as well as the hexagrams?
- Or ... am I being way too specific here? :bows:
Best, David.
I thought it might be a fun experiment to see if we can come up with links between the judgment text and and the image text for all the hexagrams.
In the spirit of the threads about unchanging hexagrams, and because of some of the discussion in this thread, I thought it might be a fun experiment to see if we can come up with links between the judgment text and and the image text for all the hexagrams.
Do you think it would be useful to clarify where in the Yi's history the Image appeared ? I am hopelessly ignorant about this sort of thing but have the idea that the Image is from the Wings, a later addition, a commentary on the Oracle. If the Image came much later that would explain why it often seems disconnected to the Oracle ?
I have read about it but it doesn't stay in my brain for some reason, the history of Yi I mean.
I think this might be good point to clarify, or a good starting point at least.Do you think it would be useful to clarify where in the Yi's history the Image appeared ?
