Early Chinese Beliefs

Early beliefs centered around the earth, nature, localized spirits, ancestors, and divination. The I Ching provided guidance and stimulated thought among the Chinese. Confucius, kings, and scholars studied and wrote interpretations of these sixty-four hexagrams. This hands-on lesson can involve students in using the I Ching, which has lasted thousands of years.
