Only if you apply the idea of the Winter Solstice to it in the first place. It's still all down to your interpretation of whatever it is you're reading, sort of like tarot cards in a sense (the Death card doesn't mean you're about to die). So you can make the I Ching predict or show the winter solstice, but it doesn't inherently talk about the winter solstice, if that makes sense.

Did this book really make a reference to the winter solstice?

Great joke. Use it in that thread on "Off Topic". That one of the jokes.

Actually, "I Ching" is the sound of cash registers as 2012 scammers rake in money from the gullible.

"The time is with the month of winter solstice, when the change is due to come…" I'm not saying I believe in it, but this to me seems to relate to 2012.

Yeah. Does this chapter mention 2012? Because I'm not seeing any date. And every year we have winter solstices. So, why 2012?

Is it just stupidity or is it something else?

I'm going with stupidity.

P.S. WHY are people talken in by these total fruitcakes? Is it just stupidity or is it something else? An averagely intelligent person upon reading McKenna's material will very quickly see it for the drivel that it is. How can anybody not?

Oh please, not Terence McKenna. What a loon. He took parts of real science, from fields such as Fractals, Chaos Theory, Complexity, etc, and rolled them all together (with lots of drugs) to create one massive fruitcake-fest.

Fractals, Chaos Theory, etc, are absolutley fascinating subjects. It's a damn shame that whackos like McKenna (and Nassim Haramein also springs to mind) misunderstand and mis-apply them.

Does the I Ching even have chapters? I thought it was a device of some sort. Not a book?

Because bands haven't ripped off material before to make songs. This is NEWS!

…

Wait…

Regardless, the I Ching is also up to the whims of the reader to decide what exactly it's saying. Keep that in mind, which is /exactly what Pink Floyd did then/.

You say the I Ching doesn't predict anything, but I happen to be quite a big fan of the band Pink Floyd and they have a song recorded in 1967 called Chapter 24, based on text from the 24th chapter of the I Ching. And one of the lines is "The time is with the month of winter solstice, when the change is due to come…" I'm not saying I believe in it, but this to me seems to relate to 2012. Does anyone know more about this, or whether it's worth mentioning on the I Ching page?

what exactly happened?

If you cant explain the fractal time theory better than this, at least link the Terence Mackenna explanations and give people the chance to judge by themselves.
