About this listen

The I Ching with Clarity podcast dives into real I Ching readings, relishing the way the oracle dissolves barriers between spiritual connection and ordinary life. Once a month, I’ll explore a new reading, aiming both to make interpretation accessible to beginners and to share some rich imagination food for more experienced diviners.© Hilary J.
