I work as an I Ching diviner and teacher at I Ching with Clarity - both interpreting personal readings, and providing reliable information and guidance to enable people to develop and deepen their own relationship with the I Ching.

Since I founded Clarity at the turn of the millennium, it's brought me an extraordinary flow of gifts...

There's the opportunity to get to know my own intuitive voice, and to help people to recognise and trust their own.

There's the deep, constant, reliable relationship with the oracle itself.

There's the community of people who've joined my site, and there are the enduring friendships with the people I've helped. People tend to come back for further readings over the months and years, so I get the chance to see how they embrace the oracle's guidance and use it to change their lives in truly inspiring ways.

And then there's the way people's relationship with the I Ching develops, from the very first reading, maybe through taking the I Ching Course or a Class, to a powerful ongoing practice and force for transformation.

Seeing and receiving so much, I know that divination with the I Ching is absolutely not limited to prediction. The old misconceptions about futures writ in stone somewhere, of divination as just 'having your fortune told' so you can sit round passively and wait for it to arrive - these are illusions born of a rationalistic culture, and I'm delighted to play a part in dispelling them.

Divination is a way of understanding the present. That means real understanding, complete awareness: having both the eagle's eye-view down over paths that are branching out before you, and the deer's sense of everything around you in the landscape. It offers a way to engage with your immediate experience - with all its choices and challenges - and see through it to deeper patterns of meaning and purpose.

Other Programs & Highlights

I also provide personal, in-depth I Ching readings and I Ching mentoring. This is like enrolling the 3,000 year old oracle as your spiritual coach - quite an intense experience!

You can also use your own readings as the foundation for your study of the I Ching through taking the correspondence version of the I Ching Course, which includes personal feedback and guidance through a series of nine assignments that you explore in your own time. (Unlike most courses, this one has no time limit.)

I suggest you start with the abundance of free resources available with free membership, and then get in touch whenever you'd like to chat about what comes next for you.
