Ralph D. Sawyer - Shambhala Pubns, 1995
Book description
For centuries, the Ling Ch'i Ching has been a popular source of wisdom and an oracle of fortune telling. The ritual for consultation involves throwing 12 disks that are said to be imbued with power. The disk would be arranged in rows yielding one of 125 possible trigrams. In the text, each trigram is represented by a core oracle describing a situation, problem, or event and its internal dynamic. Calligraphy throughout.
