Links to Yijing Websites What a wealth of wonderful Yijing websites I discovered when I began to compile this page of links! And this is just those in English! How great to find such an ancient and venerable book so well represented on the internet. This demonstrates its timelessness, that it still has relevance in our lives after all these millennia. It is also great to find each website presenting Yijing from a different perspective, each with its own validity. This demonstrates its universality, that it truly does reveal a reflection of the person approaching it, a reflection deserving respect. With this in mind, we offer the following reviews. Jane Schorre Chinese Yijing Zhouyi Shouming English Translations Wilhelm/Baynes Translation James Legge Translation Wu Weifarer’s Yijing ************************************************************** I Ching with Clarity Hilary Barrett’s website is as friendly and generous as it is informative and easy to navigate. There is something for just about everyone: readings, courses, an I online community offering discussions, a newsletter, and I Ching resources, including articles, reviews and links. We are especially grateful for her wonderful review of Yijing Wondering and Wandering in her newsletter, Answers. It can be found in the archives, issues 71 and 72. Hermetica Bradford Hatcher’s site is a treasure of “mystical perspectives” of Confucian, Daoist, Jewish, Christian and Buddhist texts . His Yijing pages, demonstrating humor as well as wisdom, include the Chinese text and his translation along with studies of its history and symbolism, as well as a bibliography and links. It seems to be a life-time of learning presented in an understandable and balanced way. I especially appreciate his Lessons for Scholars and Humor in Yijng in the appendices. Yijing: Book of Sun and Moon LiSe Heyboer’s site is dazzling in design, execution and content. It includes her translation which aims at “a wide range of meanings”. Happily, her translation is based on an extensive study of the etymology of the Chinese characters, clearly presented. There is much here to explore, including essays, some work on paired hexagrams, sections on trigrams, origins and structure as well as a list of sources. Yijing Dao Calling Crane This elegant website by Steve Marshall, author of The Mandate of Heaven, is not only beautiful but also scholarly without being stuffy. His offerings include an introduction to Yijing, a transcription of the 1935 Harvard-Yenching Zhouyi, excellent book reviews, articles, animations of hexagrams sequences, scans of Chinese diagrams and links. Yijing Poetics Denis Mair’s web site is another one both beautiful and rich in content. Many of his works can be downloaded. Two things we found to truly appreciate are: 1.) his recognition of the importance of reading Laozi in studying Yijing, “because he was the thinker closest to the Changes who can still talk to us.” and 2.) his translation of Zhang Huang’s Ming Dynasty Symbolism in the Zhouyi which has to do with the paired hexagrams. Scott Davis Homepage An interesting and unassuming presentation of his ideas about the mystery of the hexagram sequence, considering the structure, the traditional two part division, and the paired hexagrams. He makes the case for a grand design there, based on an analysis of the moving lines of Ji Ji (63) and Wei Ji (64) (which echoes Carrin’s discovery of the “foursomes” connecting all sixty-four hexagrams) and his discovery of symmetries within. Wengu zhixin This superb site offers the text of numerous classics in French and English translations as well as the original Chinese. The Yijing translation used is the Wilhelm/Baynes version, presented with the Chinese characters, each linked to a page devoted to its definition and usage. Great Vessel Stephen Karcher and Kevin Sheffield have an impressive site, primarily devoted to showcasing Stephen Karcher’s many writings. It offers a selection of his articles, divination software, hexagram readings and an invitation to join a forum discussion. Two articles we especially like - his Basics in Brief offers a good discussion of paired hexagrams and the new Sources for the Decades presents his ideas on the hexagram sequence. Original I Ching Dan Stackhouse offers his unique approach to meaning in Yijing, based on the pictorial images making up the hexagram names, as we have done in our book. He has developed an intriguing way of interpreting the hexagrams by creating a mandala for wordless meditation using these ancient seal characters along with the trigrams involved . I Ching Plus Chris Lofting’s mind-boggling site is very impressive, but unfortunately most of it is way over my head. Just don’t have the brains to understand his writing. In spite of this, his Book of Structures, Traditional Pairs and Traditional 'Sequence' of the I Ching : its Source and Meaning (a code cracked) are calling me to spend the time and effort to try to grasp them. Center for Zhouyi & Ancient Chinese Philosophy Website of an academic institute associated with Shandong University and directed by Liu Da-jun. It is engaged in researching Yijing and its relationship to ancient Chinese philosophy. A chance to explore the scholarly approach in China. I Ching Bookmarks Lorraine Patsco's comprehensive link site, along with information about I Ching, An Annotated Bibliography, which she complied with Edward Hacker and Steve Moore. There is a lot to explore here. The I Ching on the Net Greg Whincup offers information about his own translation, Rediscovering the I Ching, and includes a taste of it with his interpretation of two hexagrams. His categorized selection of links is extensive. Also a lot to explore here. Dao House Yijing Links The Dao House website is a wide-ranging list of links to sites devoted to Daoism and related subjects. Each link is described and reviewed briefly. Some sources here may not be found anywhere else. It appears to be a labor of love.      I Ching Wikipedia Wikipedia is an evolving encyclopedia with good coverage of I Ching. The pages are open for editing by anyone, which certainly makes it unique. In addition to its I Ching article there are lists of translations, references and external links. Fun to explore. Yi-toons A light-hearted site by Luis Andrade, featuring his Yi-cartoons and an accompanying Yi-blog. The clever cartoons can certainly prompt Yi-wondering. The Yi-blog is that of a devoted Yi-afficianado. It is great to see someone having fun with Yijing and I say, “More power to him!” Yijing Algebra Andreas Schoter's site offers his papers on Yijing (including one on Boolean algebra and one relating Yijing to taijiquan), software tools he has developed, Yijing links, and an offering of the services he provides. The piece on Taijiquan resonates with me, but the Boolean algebra is way beyond me. Guess someone has to do it. You may love it!
