「易經諮商」神諭議題研究——神諭轉銜自諭的可能性

How does I-Ching Counseling face the issue of the authority of the divination――The possibility of oracles becoming self-awareness

傳統卜筮中，神、人階層指示的關係，以及神諭預測的目的，相較於後現代諮商強調平等合作的關係，以及「不知情」的晤談歷程，在理論上是牴觸的。故當「易經諮商」——以《易》占作為晤談媒介時，有必要加以釐清與設定。首先，本文藉由對傳統筮例的梳理後發現，卜筮的重點在於審占。卜筮結果一旦由神諭吉凶回歸到人意占釋，那麼《易》占作為諮商晤談媒介是可行的；其次，若將卜筮中，神靈議題以「存而不論」的態度加以懸置。諮商師在運用《易》占時，不作召喚神靈的儀式。如此一來，問卜的對象將不再是神靈，而是《易經》，且由案主完全主導占卦的詮釋權，於是占卦歷程，就成了案主與《易經》文本之間互為主體的平等對話；而「易經諮商」將成為諮商師藉由《易》占為案主創造並提供敘事空間的晤談歷程。

In the divination, the class and instructional relationship between gods and people, and the purpose of oracle predictions, are theoretically contradictory compared to the post-modern consultation emphasizing the relationship of equal cooperation and the“not-knowing position”interview process. For this reason, when Counseling and divination are integrated, the issues of“God Existence”and“Oracle Destiny”need to be clarified and set. After analyzing and researching examples of traditional divination, this article finds that although divination is an oracle, the focus is on the interpretation of people’s will. Once the result of divination is returned to human interpretation from the good or bad of the oracle, then divination as a medium of Counseling is feasible; furthermore, if the issue of divine existence in divination is suspended in the attitude of“Epoché”. Counselor does not perform actions or rituals to summon gods when using divination. In this way, the object of divination will no longer be Gods and Counselors, but“I-Ching”. At the same time, the operation process of divination and the interpretation of the results are completely delivered to the client, which will enable the client to fully participate in the interview process. The narrative of the divination becomes an equal dialogue between the client and the“I-Ching”text, and the two are the subjects of each other. It can be seen that I-Ching, as a medium of Counseling, is available. As for the abuse of the authority of oracles by traditional fortune tellers. With the above clarification and setting, coupled with the professional training of Counselor and the norms of workplace ethics, it should not be easy to produce. As a result, I-Ching Counseling will become the process that counselors will create and provide a narrative space with (healing) interviews for clients by divination.
