The Classic of Change (the I Ching, pronounced ee- ching) is the oldest and most respected oracle book or divinatory system in the world. It originated in ancient China approximately 4,000 years ago, and was compiled by shamans and spirit mediums who devised a form of writing in order to record magic phrases. In SYMBOLS OF LOVE, author Stephen Karcher has selected parts of the I Ching hexagrams which specifically apply to relationships, and he provides simple instructions on how to consult this ancient oracle and interpret its answers to learn the ways in which you can most successfully interact with friends, family and partners. By using the book the reader can find out which of the 22 'models of relationship' is at work in their lives at that moment, ask questions of the Relationship Model Oracle and use the answers to help understand what is happening in their interaction with others, avoid painful moments and the more obvious mistakes and recognise when something or someone is truly significant.
