Understanding the I Ching
The I Ching is basically a tool for asking questions and getting answers used for over 5000 years by the Chinese civilization.
I Ching provides us present information about our future potentials.
This ancient knowledge is capable of revealing existing patterns in a determined moment. By clarifying these patterns (your present situation and future potential or tendency), it leaves your free will to decide whether to follow them as they are or let it influence your response to situation.
The beauty of I Ching is that it helps us to act. It starts a process which after we determine the best actions to take in the situation we are facing.
I am often asked when to consult the I Ching. I say that when we hesitate about a path to follow, a choice to make or we have a dilemma to solve then we can use it for what it really is: a tool to help making decisions. Since we are living in a world of profound changes it is a privilege to access such informations for better decisions.
