I was wondering, how many of us use the I Ching, or Yi Jing or whatever transliteration your favourite author uses. The Book of Changes.
And, if you do consult it, how? coins? (real Chinese or your nation's currency?) yarrow stocks? cards? marbles? your own way you created?
To answer my own questions. I use it, often. I prefer Yi Jing since it is closer to the way it is pronounced (though likely would still make a Chinese speaker laugh). I use a modified version of the coin throw (Canadian pennies), which I read about in one of the books. It makes the coin throw have the same statistical odds as using the yarrow stalk method.
So, does the room just echo or are there others? It is so rarely mentioned. Marion
