| Psychic Readings from The
                Psychic Internet often feature images drawn from the
                I Ching Oracle. To offer supplementary
                information about these images for our clients,
                and for the public, we have provided this archive
                of brief articles. For general information on
                the I Ching Oracle, click here. The
                abstract images of the I Ching Oracle (usually
                called "hexagrams") symbolize all of
                the related and interacting aspects of reality.
                In the following excerpts from actual Psychic Readings, the images of the I Ching
                are discussed. Click here for links to all
                of the images. DeliveranceYou may
                take great encouragement from the appearance of
                the image of Deliverance today. It is an image of
                great beauty, showing the powerful combination of
                thunder and rain as they cleanse the earth in a
                sudden downpour. At such times, all tension is
                relieved. The ominous darkness of the clouds that
                hang over a situation are dispelled in electrical
                discharges and the precipitation of nourishing
                moisture. This image is closely related to
                another image called Progress, and it actually
                does describe the progress that is made when
                people are delivered from the dangers that assail
                them. Deliverance
                on the one hand shows how danger is avoided
                through movement. Quite simply, it is a
                forthright movement away from danger. You can be
                sure that you are moving in such a direction, and
                that success in your ventures will be the result.
                There really is no doubt on that score. But there
                is another aspect of the situation described by
                Deliverance that might be worth mentioning here.
                This aspect of the image demonstrates the
                underlying consistency and unity of human
                perceptions and consciousness across cultures.
                For, corresponding exactly to the Christian idea
                of salvation, the idea of Deliverance in the I
                Ching Oracle is connected directly with the idea
                of forgiveness. As the central verse associated
                with this image says, Thunder and rain set
                in: the image of Deliverance. Thus the superior
                man pardons mistakes and forgives misdeeds.
                This general idea may be a good subject for
                meditation for you during any tranquil moments
                that you are able to set aside for yourself. The
                question to ask is: Do I have feelings of
                resentment, judgment, anger, and even enmity for
                people who have disappointed me in one way or the
                other in the course of my business dealings, and
                are these feelings getting in my own way? It may
                be that the root of the depressed condition that
                we sense in you can be found in such feelings.
                Forgiveness has magic. It is cleansing and
                reinvigorating by nature. More
