Book Description
It's one of the oldest books on Earth, and it has a message for you. The I Ching is a mystical collection of ancient wisdom, generally explained as a simple look-up-the-answer method of fortune telling. Now, J.H. Brennan reveals to Western practitioners the magical spiritual techniques behind this most ancient oracle, in The Magical I Ching. This is a unique, exciting, and easy-to-use version of the ancient oracle. Using the information in The Magical I Ching, you will be able to contact the spirit sage waiting to tell you the inner meaning of any of the six-line symbols you bring forth (the hexagrams) and how that meaning can change your life. The Magical I Ching explains the history of the I Ching and how to develop the symbols by using several different methods, including using six sticks or wands, sixty-four wands, eight coins, or the popular three-coin technique. The book analyzes each of the possible sixty-four hexagrams that form the basis of the oracle, in clear, modern language anyone can understand. That is just the beginning. The I Ching has survived for so long because of its spirituality. You'll learn how to use the book to enter astral doorways to mystic realms of reality. It will allow you to create a new framework for operations of real magic. You'll probe the deepest mysteries of Eastern esoteric thought. It even shows you ways to put your life on a new and better course. After 5,000 years, the I Ching remains one of the most popular sources of spiritual wisdom in the world. If it puzzled you in the past, you'll be able to understand it at the deepest level possible when you read The Magical I Ching.

Book Description
Delve into the Magickal Side of I Ching Divination The Book of Changes (I Ching) is more than just an oracle--it is also an incredibly powerful tool for theoretical and practical magick and meditation. With this book, the magician can learn to use the primal elemental forces of the universe as they are revealed in the ancient Hexagrams. For the first time in a study of esoteric practices, Magick, Shamanism & Taoism provides the regular Chinese word-characters for the Hexagrams as well as representations of their archaic antecedents, based on the earliest known examples of Chinese calligraphy. This opens up the potential for creating interesting and authentic variants for talismanic magick. The I Ching is comparable to the well-known Qabalistic Tree of Life. Like the Qabalah, it comprises a "cosmic map" that seeks to define categories for all the possible permutations of elements and circumstances existing in the universal cycle of creation and destruction. Those familiar with the Qabalah will find this to be a perfect complementary system of universal symbols. This book is primarily concerned with the Book of Changes and its links to Taoism, the magickal practices of the Chinese Wu, and related schools of thought. My ambition has been to open up the I Ching so that it can be approached on several levels, all of which are important aspects of the overall whole. Whereas most books on the I Ching focus on the system's oracles as a means to divination, my work builds on that important base to include the potential for magickal rites and meditations, blending traditional ideas with contemporary experimentation. In this way, it allows for a greater personal appreciation and assimilation of the primal elemental forces that underpin the Trigrams and Hexagrams. In doing so, it not only describes the basic tools appropriate for Chinese-style magick, but also explains the symbolism and esoteric theory behind their use. Parallels that I have drawn between Taoism and other worldviews such as shamanism, Ninjutsu, Shinto, Thelema, and Tantra help to broaden and explain fundamental occult concepts. Hexagram correspondences bring together interpretations of the figures with related symbols, gods, ritual instruments, and appropriate magickal workings in a way never before attempted in a work on the I Ching. -Richard Herne

Book Description
I-Ching ( ), a.k.a. The Book of Change, a Chinese literary classic, is one of the oldest books known as talking magically about fortune from drawing lines so called Yang and Yin. A great number of books about I-Ching have been published in many languages, mostly in Chinese, and significantly in English, and always confined by the original I-Ching's literal interpretation treated this book more like a rare relic than a scientific treatise and wrapped with immense archaeological studies on both detailed historic chronicles and meticulous original textual understanding. As result, foremost logic elegance of I-Ching is hardly touched and never explored. This book, for the first time, will introduce you from a brand new angle by revealing I-Ching as a beautiful mathematical model followed by simple and elegant logic deductions, like a book showing the secrets of magic tricks performed by magicians.

Today, it continues to enrich the lives of readers around the world.

This edition of the I Ching is the most authoritative and complete translation available, preserving the spirit of the ancient text while providing a vital key for anyone who seeks to live harmoniously with the immutable law of change. The book presents the sixty-four hexagrams of the I Ching along with their texts and interpretations in a format especially designed for easy reference.

Book Description
The Magicians describes the experiences of the author, a sociologist-anthropologist, who spent six months as a participant observer in a black magic group. In the book, this California-based national secret magical and religious group is called the "Church of Hu", though it has become nationally known as the Temple of Set. Members of the group, mostly from the well-educated middle class, consider themselves an elect and seek to develop themselves magically to achieve power. The Magicians looks at the group's beliefs, attitudes, and values, and shows how its focus on power and magic affects the members in everyday life. The book also discusses the dynamics involved in the search for power and considers the danger to society of groups using black magic to achieve power.
