The I Ching is often treated either as an obscure classic or as a tool for prediction. LiaoHuishan takes a different path: each of the 64 hexagrams becomes a psychological situation that helps a modern reader identify position, timing, pressure, and the next judgment to make.
Bringing the traditional Images and Judgments into conversation with Jungian ideas such as archetypes and synchronicity, the book aims to develop a capacity no external adviser can supply for you: your own judgment.
