I Ching Tarot by Cheung Kwong Yin

It's not a tarot deck so I hope moderators don't move my thread.

I Ching Tarot by Cheung Kwong Yin
ISBN 9628602063
Slightly comic-type illustrations--supposed to closely mirror text of the Wilhelm I Ching translation in imagery.

I saw Pagan X mention in another thread that she owns a copy of this deck. I think I've got that right anyway.

There are no pictures of this online other than the box cover. I wonder if someone could scan 2-4 cards in and upload them here please?

It would be nice to actually see what the cards look like, both in illustration and in any titling/numbering.

Thanks.

Here's the snap of the cover.

I am assuming the illustrations look like this one? It's an expensive set not to have any examples of what the cards look like.

[Edited: I bought the set, so if no one else can post scans I will when I get it.]

Okay, I found some examples from the book. The cards themselves are brightly coloured.

One shows two cards and the way the titling is done. The other shows a card and the text and information layout from the book.

Thanks for posting that room. I've been chomping at the bit wanting to see what the cards look like. I almost ordered it earlier today. But these pics you posted will hold me over until you get yours and then I will decide. :)

They've shipped so maybe by Monday I'll have them.

I've been trying to find a few OOP and almost OOP I Ching decks before they get too expensive. It makes a nice comparison study to lay different cards out together, and then consult my different books.

I don't care for the arrogance of certain Western online cliques regarding the I Ching. The Chinese culture does not encourage such arrogance, argument, and snobbery in study or personal reflection, fortunately.

I have two large books of Chinese poetry that I also like to use with the I Ching cards. Gives me a quiet moment for reflection. China has a long and interesting history of poetry.

One of the members here got me interested in using yarrow sticks--I don't have those but I have Chinese fortune sticks, so can use 50 of those in the same manner. The classical way hurts my hands--arthritis and tendinitis--so I'm working out how to hold/count them in a less painful way.

Nice to tie it all together.

There is a site that offers online readings with the I-Ching tarot, excellent for seeing the cards. i-chingtarot.com

It must be a new site. I love this deck.

No, it doesn't work. I tried a few configurations and a web search and I can't find the site. Oh well.

It may be too new to show up on web searches. Moderators here on the forum have removed urls posted directing to other websites about the I Ching, so I'm hesitant to post a url. I don't want to seem evasive.
