The Numerology of the I Ching: A Sourcebook of Symbols, Structures, and Traditional Wisdom

Rating:
Summary: very essential to I Ching comprehension.
Review: All I can say is read this book, one chapter at a time. Then After each chapter, go back and take notes. It is very well explained, and more than worth the time and energy. It has made my practice of using Master Alfred's Complete I Ching much smoother, and it demystifies a lot of nuts and bolts in the I Ching's stucture, while tracing the origins back to the He Tu and Lo Shu diagrams. Yet it is mainly a gateway, one that takes a lifetime to put into practice. One feels incredibly lucky to have discovered such wisdom in his/her own lifetime! I've seen many gimmicky packages of the I Ching that are unauthentic, but this version here rings true throughout.
