The YI-KING is both a
divinatory art
and a
book on wisdom
. The Taoist philosophers who conceived it and formulated its sentences dominated the culture of the east during the millennium which precedes the Christian era. But it was not until the 17th century that various translations made it known in the West.
Starting from the first principles of Taoism, the opposition / complementarity of
Yin
(
receptive, passive, feminine
) and
Yang
(
creative, active, masculine
), the inventors of YI-KING designed the figure which systematically combines all the possibilities of these two basic principles: it is the
hexagram
, combination of
two trigrams of 3 lines
, in total, 6 lines Yin or Yang. The developed octave of the two principles is therefore available in
64 possible hexagrams
which represent all of the possible archetypal situations, each consisting of two trigrams among the 8 possible.
"Treaty of mutations
", the YI-KING offers a catalog of changes that affect life, people and their relationships. In addition to the sixty-four simplified transitions described by the 64 hexagrams, it depicts the 384 transformations which affect in positive or negative the evolution of beings and situations.
The elliptical language of the YI-KING, which is poetic but also sometime impenetrable, opens the mind of the consultant to
new truths
.
