Created over 4,500 years ago by Fu Xi, the mythical first emperor of China, the I Ching, or Book of Changes, has been used ever since as a venerated source of philosophical wisdom and advice. Now this beautifully packaged card deck makes it accessible to everyone, everywhere, and at every moment. Each of the 64 cards features an oracle from the I Ching, illustrated by Chao-Hsiu Chen's distinctive art and calligraphy, and an enlightening original interpretation to guide users to its meaning. Designed specifically for practical use, one can construct a personal hexagram by selecting two of the eight trigram tokens, find the card that applies to that hexagram, and carry it around to let the I Ching's silent presence provide guidance and comfort throughout the day.

Supportive, With Integrity

As the traditional 'I Ching' is one of my most respected divination tools, I was at first dubious about the value of these cards. After all, they can't match the complexity of the original. But I tried them at a seminar, and found them to be quite nice. No, they don't replace a full reading with cast coins and changing lines. But there is something about the single-card streamlined commentary that is clear and direct. Each card has an ink painting made especially for the specific hexagram, and the deck has a pleasant energy, as if it wants to help. The box is nice and sturdy, easy to access. Recommended as a card to draw first thing in the morning, etc.
