Editorial Reviews

From Library Journal

The Ling Ch'i Ching offers interpretations of patterns that result when 12 discs, each having one of three Chinese characters, are tossed. The discs are then arranged in three rows of four representing heaven, humankind, and Earth. Depending on which characters are visible and their position, an interpretation is offered as guidance for life decisions. The book's introduction explains in detail how the discs are interpreted, and the following 125 chapters give an oracle, verse, and commentaries for all possible patterns. For those who believe in the inherent power of such discs, the book offers a manual of interpretive guidance, though the translators offer strong cautions about such a use. For those who don't believe, the book is still recommended because it is an interesting and highly readable work in the Chinese divination tradition and will offer something in addition to the I Ching.

Product Description

For centuries, the Ling Ch'i Ching has been a popular source of wisdom and an oracle of fortune telling. The ritual for consultation involves throwing 12 disks that are said to be imbued with power. The disk would be arranged in rows yielding one of 125 possible trigrams. In the text, each trigram is represented by a core oracle describing a situation, problem, or event and its internal dynamic. Calligraphy throughout.
