Satya Byock, Three Pennies and a Journal Event Graphic

This salon provides space for consultation with Satya on the I Ching and the meaning of individual readings. The group will learn from each response and questions on personal practice. All participants are also invited to engage with one another.

Following some brief remarks, Satya Doyle Byock will begin by guiding all participants through the simple ritual practice of consulting the I Ching. All questions are welcomed as people learn how to use this ancient system of divination. However, the focus of this salon is on responses and community discussion. This salon is primarily for those who already have a basic working knowledge of how to consult the I Ching.

While Satya will not be teaching the mechanics of how to use the I Ching, she’ll provide insights into the greater nuance on best practices for consultation as well as how to receive its guidance.

There will be plenty of space for questions and answers to make sure everyone is finding their way.

Recordings: Given the focus on personal sharing in these salons, recordings will only be available for one week following the live gathering for those unable to attend live.

If you have yet to learn the basics of consulting the I Ching, you can purchase the recording of Satya’s salon on “How to Use the I Ching”, which makes this material accessible and prepares you for these community gatherings.

Materials: You’ll want your journal/notebook, copies of the I Ching, and three pennies for practice. Satya encourages all registrants to purchase at least one or two translations of the I Ching, if you don’t already own one.
