Introduction to the I Ching
The I Ching is Chinese and the oldest of all the classical systems, from around 800 BCE. It is a great universal model and one of the oldest books in the world. It is based on simple binary (what our computers are built on) with 64 themes. In its original form it guides through the ways of nature, and provides wisdom for contemplation and insightful answers to questions.
The hexagrams that form the basis of the I Ching are from the Bagua, in Taoist Cosmology. It is the 8 symbols that represent the basic principles of existence. It is represented by the 8 trigrams, 8 elements of nature: Earth, Wind, Fire, Thunder, Mountain, Water, Lake, and Heaven. Each trigram has three lines, each line either “open” or “solid”, representing yin or yang, 0 or 1 forming binary numbers 000-111 (0 to 7).
Spectrum of Consciousness
The 64 hexagrams is a useful tool for exploring something as complex as the spectrum of human consciousness. Looking at the spectrum of consciousness through 8 primary themes makes it simpler to see a larger perspective while appreciating the subtle essence of each. Each hexagram has a name, theme, and number that is from an original sequence. For more information you can take a look at Wikipedia.
I Ching Astrology
I Ching astrology is a more detailed guide for self-development than traditional astrology. Astrological elements in the profile and birth chart include: Sun, Earth, Moon, North and South nodes, Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto. Each astrological element falls within one of the 64 I Ching themes, which represents the spectrum of consciousness, and the life lessons we come to master. Their position can help us identify the theme in our life, expand our awareness, guide us to self-mastery and self-realization.
These elements are energetic themes that are imprinted on our energy body, and include our Personality (traditional star sign from the position of the Sun), Design (from the incarnation cross formed by the positions of the Earth and Sun), emotional Influence from the Moon, our Destiny (North Node), our Gifts (South Node). Below is a detailed list of each astrological element, and what they represent.
Sun represents a personality trait we have come to learn to master. Personality is a key aspect of the design of your conscious awareness.
Earth represents the subconscious influence in your design. Design is a primary feature of your subconscious awareness.
Moon represents the subtle influence in your design. Influence is a key to your well-being.
North Node represents your destiny, the future, and the unknown. Destiny is a key theme to your fulfillment, and personal success.
South Node represents gifts, skills, and abilities we already have. Gifts are primary abilities that you can integrate, and rely on for your authentic fulfillment.
Mercury represents our mental theme, communication, and intelligence: Mind is a key aspect of your life path, and the way you are designed to interact with the world.
Venus represents attraction, relationships, love, beauty and harmony: Attraction is an aspect of your design that will draw others to you.
Mars represents our desires, courage and action. Passion is your soul’s desire and a key element to your authentic joy.
Jupiter represents our abundance, an area of growth, prosperity and potential. Abundance is a source of your inner wisdom.
Saturn represents responsibility, structure and aspiration. Task is the theme of your primary life assignments.
Uranus represents our uniqueness, an area for excellence and expansion. Uniqueness is one of your key areas for self-development.
Neptune represents imagination, possibilities, intuition, and creative power. This Secret Power is a hidden aspect of your design that wants to be uncovered.
Pluto represents power, transformation, evolution, life & death, cycles, change, expansion. Your Power is one of your powerful gifts that will help you succeed.
The Incarnation Cross
The positions of the earth and sun create the primary birth cross (color framed on the profile). The profiles contain both the conscious personality and design (dark grey icons on the profile and report) and the subconscious personality and design (light grey icons on the profile and report). The subconscious personality and design come from the location of the elements 3 months prior to birth when major brain development takes place, and usually reflect themes and lessons that may be more challenging to integrate.
The I Ching Birth Chart
The I Ching Birth Chart contains all the astrological elements from your birth date, time, and location. They are color coded to the I Ching and include the primary theme for each of the astrological elements. The birth chart, profiles, and reports are custom designed, personalized and therefore take up to 3 business days to complete. You will also receive the I Ching Astrology information booklet +-10 page PDF (3mb). View the I Ching Profiles and Products for sale here >>
The profiles, birth charts, and reports are compatible with the Human Design and Gene Keys systems. The placement of the hexagrams on the 360 degree astrological birth chart comes from the Human Design system developed around 1989 after Ra Uru Hu / Alan (Robert) Krakower had a mystical experience where he received the information from a voice over the course of a few days, and then studied and tested it before sharing the information as the Human Design system. The Human Design and Gene Keys system (developed by Richard Rudd) are great tools for self-development, they have helped many people, including myself, with self-discovery, and the process of deconditioning. It can be complicated for some, and take a few years to fully understand and apply it.
I believe working directly with the I Ching is a simpler way of integrating the information, and expanding our self-awareness. The profiles, birth charts, and reports are great as an introduction to the concepts. My personal journey has shown me the power that these systems and the I Ching has for self-discovery, it has affected my being, and every aspect of my life. My own process of transformation has inspired the Spectrum I Ching for Self-Realization system I developed.
