Studies in Crypto-Teleological Solipsism A Symbolic Key to the I Ching based upon the Insights of Analytical Psychology and the Western Mystery Tradition By “Michael Servetus” The I Ching is not magic; it is science that we don’t understand. -- Terence McKenna The I Ching or Book of Changes is one of the world's most ancient manuscripts. Although the original Chinese text has been in the public domain for more than three-thousand years, the present manuscript (the fruit of over thirty years of intense study) is currently un-publishable because most of the English translations and paraphrases (included herein solely for purposes of scholarly comparison) remain under copyright. The editor offers this, his personal study-guide, freely to those who wish to use and annotate it for their private, not-for-profit edification. Further annotations and commentary are encouraged.

I Ching ♦ The Book of Changes
According to the original meaning, the attributes [sublimity, potentiality of success, power to further, perseverance] are paired. When an individual draws this oracle, it means that success will come to him from the primal depths of the universe and that everything depends upon his seeking his happiness and that of others in one way only, that is, by perseverance in what is right. The specific meanings of the four attributes became the subject of speculation at an early date. The Chinese word here rendered by "sublime" means literally "head," "origin," "great." This is why Confucius says in explaining it: “Great indeed is the generating power of the Creative; all beings owe their beginning to it. This power permeates all heaven.”3 For this attribute inheres in the other three as well. The beginning of all things lies still in the beyond in the form of ideas that have yet to become real. But the Creative furthermore has power to lend form to these archetypes of ideas.

Les hexagrammes du Yi-King
Les hexagrammes du Yi-King Le terme "hexagramme" nous vient des traductions du XIXeme siècle (du Grec : hexa six, gramme lettre, écriture). En chinois on parle de "Gua", c'est à dire de "figure" sans qu'il soit précisé s'il s'agit d'hexagramme ou de trigramme. Les traits (Yao) d'un hexagramme peuvent être brisés (--) ou pleins (__). Ils représentent respectivement le souple et le ferme, l'obscurité et la lumière, le faible et le fort, le Yin et le Yang. 64 Hexagrammes Les 64 hexagrammes constituent la base technique du Yi-king. 6. A cela vont s'ajouter les relations des traits entre eux, leur sympathie ou antipathie comme par exemple un chef de personnel fort (trait plein au niveau 3) qui convoite la place d'un ministre faible (trait brisé au niveau 4). Considérant que les êtres humains, leurs sentiments, leurs motivations ne sont pas figés mais évoluent, les sages ont introduit la notion de changement, de transformation encore appelé "mutation" de l'hexagramme.
