Synopsis

This book takes up the matter of the underlying reality, how to perceive it and how to participate in it authentically. It does so in the context of the I Ching’s symbology, particularly its eight trigrams. From this, the reader may safely assume that this is not a beginner’s book—however, the Introduction does carry readers all the way through the introductory philosophical and symbolic material of the I Ching, so the inspired beginner might feel equipped to track unfamiliar terrain. Those familiar with the I Ching may benefit from the Introduction as well, since my terminology and perspective may differ from the received version to which they are accustomed.
