{ "item_title" : "I Ching Meditations", "item_author" : [" Adele Aldridge", "Katya Walter", "Adele Aldridge "], "item_description" : "I Ching Meditations, Volume 1 contains Illustrations and poetic interpretations for the first 16 hexagrams of the I Ching. All the illustrations are full color with a total of 120 images plus several more diagrams. The I Ching is a philosophy dating back to the origins of Chinese civilization that evolved along with Chinese writing and culture. This philosophy of right living is based on the premise that everything in the universe arises out of two forces, Yang and Yin, the Chinese words for creative and receptive energy or masculine and feminine forces. The concept is that if you follow the way of nature you will find the right way and right time for action or non-action in one's own life. This illustrated version of the I Ching is Volume 1 of a four-part series. It is glorious in its colorful representation of the first 16 hexagrams. The author illustrates not only each hexagram, but also each of the six lines in each hexagram. This makes such a substantial body of art that the effect is immersive and captivating. The result of this illustrative approach to the I Ching makes these hexagrams both beautiful and accessible. This illustrated format works so well because the I Ching is essentially a series of dynamic concepts that are offered as verbal analogies. An analogy is by nature a dynamic image at work in the mind. These pictorial images help the mind to understand the hexagrams better at a fundamental level below words. - From the Foreword by Katya Walter", "item_img_path" : "https://covers1.booksamillion.com/covers/bam/0/61/574/326/0615743269_b.jpg", "price_data" : { "retail_price" : "32.00", "online_price" : "32.00", "our_price" : "32.00", "club_price" : "32.00", "savings_pct" : "0", "savings_amt" : "0.00", "club_savings_pct" : "0", "club_savings_amt" : "0.00", "discount_pct" : "10", "store_price" : "" } }
