Hilary Barrett, I Ching

Harmen has just published a new article, which is always a wonderful thing (even if I wish he’d translate his Chinese sources for me!).

There’s an interview with Carol Anthony (author of Guide to the I Ching, Oracle of the Cosmic Way and so on) on BlogTalkRadio. It’s good to hear the voice after experiencing the books, and get some insight into the process that gave rise to them.

Cutting through hexagram 23 – Harmen’s Dagboek. One of those splendidly detailed articles from Harmen I need to read over and over again.
