Synopsis Chinese Mathematical Astrology by : Ho Peng Yoke

Though there are a number of well-written works on Chinese divination, there are none that deal with the three sophisticated devices that were employed by the Chinese Astronomical Bureau in the eleventh century and for hundreds of years thereafter. Chinese experts applied the methods associated with these devices to both weather forecasting and to the interpretation of human affairs. Hidden by a veil of secrecy, these methods have always been relatively little known other than by their names. The first work in any language to explore these three methods, known as sanshi (three cosmic boards), this book sheds light on a topic which has been shrouded in mystery for centuries, having been kept secret for many years by the Chinese Astronomical Bureau.

Synopsis When I Ching Has No Text by : Alfred Kee

If you are looking for an oracle system that can provide direct, precise, detailed, accurate, and straight to the point, no-nonsense answers. This book will serve you well! We will be discussing different examples (with real-life case studies) of questions that can be answered by WWG, such as employment and career, wealth (from personal to business and investment), health ( From general health to a professional application that not limited to Chinese and Modern Medicine), relationships (in any kind of relationships), property and feng shui, luck (including those that is intangible), and so much more. Wen Wang Gua is another I Ching practice that has a history of more than a thousand years. The accuracy of this system is extremely high. The designed framework of WWG adopts only the yin and yang to read the hexagrams and this makes deciphering so much easier. (i.e, if it wasn't yin, then it must be yang) Hence, there is no need for text during the entire deciphering process. Please be rest assured you will not need to pick up another translation of the I Ching again. This book simply does not copy just from the ancients. In fact, it has not much to do with the ancient texts. Despite saying this, this book is still using the basic and original designed structure, that was built thousands of years ago. It reveals many secret techniques and explains why some theories are not working. For the first time ever, I am revealing all those privately passed down techniques about this little known system of I Ching. I will lead the reader step by step through this fantastic and rewarding oracle from ancient China. To perform divination, it is absolutely not just about throwing coins and using one's intuition. It is a fully analytical system. That is why everyone can learn to read in the future. This book will guide you step by step with lessons (with proper listing and organising) from A to Z. I can assure you that this book is the one that you have been searching for a long time.

Synopsis Stalk Divination by :

This book presents for the first time a full translation and analysis of a newly discovered bamboo divination manual from the fourth century BCE China, called the Stalk Divination Method (Shifa). It was used as an alternative to the better-known Zhouyi (popularly known as the I-Ching). The Shifa manual presents a competing method of interpreting the trigrams, the most basic elements of the distinctive sixty-four hexagrams in the Zhouyi. This newly discovered method looks at the combination of four trigrams as a fluid, changeable pattern or unit reflective of different circumstances in an elite man's life. Unlike the Zhouyi, this new manual provides case studies that explain how to read the trigram patterns for different topics. This method is unprecedented in early China and has left no trace in later Chinese divination traditions. Shifa must be understood then as a competing voice in the centuries before the Zhouyi became the hegemonic standard. The authors of this book have translated this new text and "cracked the code" of its logic. This new divination will change our understanding of Chinese divination and bring new light to Zhouyi studies.

Synopsis The Complete I Ching — 10th Anniversary Edition by : Taoist Master Alfred Huang

A revised edition of the definitive translation of the world’s most important book of divination • More than 64,000 copies sold of the first edition • The first English translation from within the tradition by a Chinese Taoist Master • Includes translations of the Ten Wings--the commentaries by Confucius essential to the I Ching’s insights Translated by the eminent Taoist Master Alfred Huang, The Complete I Ching has been praised by scholars and new students of the I Ching since its first edition. A native Chinese speaker, Master Huang first translated the original ideograms of the I Ching into contemporary Chinese and then into English, bringing forth the intuitive meanings embodied in the images of the I Ching and imbuing his translation with an accuracy and authenticity not possible in other English translations. However, what makes his translation truly definitive is his return to prominence of the Ten Wings, the commentaries by Confucius that are essential to the I Ching’s insights. This 10th anniversary edition offers a thorough introduction to the history of the I Ching, how to use it, and several new divination methods; in-depth and easy-to-reference translations of each hexagram name, description, and pictogram; and discussions of the interrelations between the hexagrams and the spiritual meaning of their sequence.
