I Ching on the Web...

[m1thr0s]

I've got about a dozen or so balls in the air right now so I will have to plug away at this a bit at a time, but I want to start off with a good resource guide to I Ching information easily available to folks with computers...The I Ching is definitely not just a "divination system" for me...it is a whole way of life, a whole approach to magick and mysticism, a whole art and science that just flat out never quits. Just when you think you've about got the hang of it, it rolls out half a dozen new levels you never knew were there. And yet throughout it all it manages to remain spectacularly simple. I may never completely understand how it does that but it does...

(1). One of the very first sites I want to acquaint people with is Joel Biroco's site at: http://www.biroco.com/ Joel is a consummate artist and a hard thinking individual when the matter turns to eastern metaphysics. His site is both elegant and powerful and he will point you in the right direction with respect to the I Ching without exception. Do yourself a favor and check him out.

that's it for a start...I will return with a lot more little ditties you will want to bookmark or at least peruse fairly carefully...

Not that Joel needs an endorsment, but his work, both eastern and western (see Kaos) is top-of-the-line. His i-ching reading was the best divination i have ever recieved, period.

For a general place to start, http://pacificcoast.net/~wh/Index.html "I-Ching on the Net" has a lot of links.

One of those link stuck out for me, http://www.hermetica.info/ as the author has two streams of translations, one historical, and one through divinatory practice. That is to say, he speculated from the perspective of the I-Ching authors claiming that a strictly historical interpretation does not yield as much value. There are also a couple translations of the Tao Te Ching, and some essays drawing similarities between the I-Ching and the Qabalah.
