By means of divination, cultures past and present have sought to obtain knowledge from the realm of gods, spirits, and cosmic forces, either by personal (inspired) communication with spirits (e.g., in possession trance or prophetic utterance) or by technical mantic methods such as the casting of horoscopes or the interpretation of omens. China is no exception to this universal phenomenon. In twelve chapters by expert authors, this new volume examines the major types of divination within the context of China's religious traditions, with a focus on the use of the famous Book of Changes, spirit-mediumship, astrology, and prophecy.
