The I Ching, the ancient Chinese oracle of change, has been answering people's questions for some three thousand years. It's clarified our daily human concerns, brought out the meaning of our experience, and patiently advised on decisions.

This book honours that unbroken tradition of divination, providing an accessible way to start your own conversation with the I Ching. Its introduction explains the historical background of the I Ching and how it works, and includes a complete, practical guide to both casting and understanding your own readings. An authentic translation is paired with clear, straightforward interpretation to foster your intuitive relationship with the oracle's imagery.

Drawing on her many years' experience as an I Ching diviner, Hilary Barrett has created an I Ching that's completely beginner-friendly, yet also rewarding for experienced users.
