Please I respect you, yet the reference to the man thing is about complemenary energies, i am sure you have found that harmony, my love it talking about the God Man and God Woman in us all. If you read the work of ra Un Nefer Amen, he shows a really powerful interpretation of how male and female energies complement and are expressions of God not as competition but love. I love your visuals for 11........i am meditating on hexagram 11 and found your work just what i needed to also explore healing a romance, focusing on harmony, union, co operation beginnings and women on top!

That way you can get some idea of what I have been doing. I have three of Jose's books here. "The Transformative Vision," "The Mayan Factor," and "Earth Ascending." I am also recently studying the works of Christopher Hills. I find the I Ching to have been very important to his work and see in his work new ways of understanding and applying the I-Ching. I look forward to visiting. Glen I will bring my book with me when I come to Princeton. That way you can get some idea of what I have been doing.

That's wonderful that you are using my I Ching Record Book for teaching. Keep in mind that the PDF version - see my link on www.ichingshop.com - is the same book with an added chapter and can be printed to keep. I use this now myself and have filled a note book already. I look forward to seeing your book. Adele Hi Glen,

I also have two of Jose's books - it must have been remarkable working with him. The best book for an overview of all of Rowena's work and her life is: "The Golden Echo - The Life and Art of Rowena Pattee Kryder, 1935 to 2007" I have recieved your "I Ching Record Book" today and will begin using it myself and also introduce it to my classes in the upcoming sessions. The book I am working on now is tentatively called: "The House of Opposites" and is a study of the idea and inplications of opposites in the I-Ching. It is takimg me lots of time - but I am enjoying it. (It is also helping me heal from Lyme Disease - where much of the damage was in the area of pattern recognition - and this book I am writing is all about pattern recognition!!).

I was living in Marin Country for 23 years and constantly came across her name but unfortunately we never met. I looked up her book on Amazon and while it has a "Look inside this book" I wasn't able to see her illustrations. On that subject - I have taken on a task of hubris in my graphic interpretation because I am making a picture for each "Image" and one for each of the six lines for all the hexagrams. I have had to start from scratch several times for various reasons so this is taking me FOREVER to complete. I see that José Argüelles wrote Rowen'as forward. I worked with him on getting my PhD (1981) when I was also creating images for my I Ching Meditations. José also wrote a lovely forward for me for my first 16 Hexagrams which I published in a very limited edition which was all pen and ink drawings. I just finished my I Ching Record book. Check it out on Amazon or a PDF version just posted on my new I Ching Shop. I have to post something about that today. To be continued. Wishing you the best in "changes."

I took a look at your web page and your images. How I wish I could see your I Ching panels "in the flesh!" Wonderful! I also looked at your bio and have so more to discuss with you - will do in an email. We have much in common. Love, Adele Hello Kendra,

For you, Adele, to create an image for every single line is a wonderful gift for yourself and anyone who witnesses the process. Bravo. For ten years I painted the I Ching hexagrams on doors (36x80). On one side of the door I would explore the interaction of the elements (earth over heaven) and on the other side I would paint a personal experience of the hexagram. I chose the large surface because I needed a format that literally had me on my toes to reach the top and on my knees to work with the bottom. It took another ten years for me to process the material and to be able to articulate my experience. I invite you to take a look at some of the I Ching doors on my website artempowerment.com or to see a sample of the book that I published. Go to Blurb.com and look for "Visual Framework for Change". Adele, when you are ready to publish your images the Blurb (publish on demand) approach may be a place to start. The publications are true to the original colors.
