    I Ching Oracle

    Three Thousand Years of Counsel

    I Ching Oracle

    The Book of Changes — consulted by emperors, sages, and scholars since the Western Zhou dynasty. Three coins, six casts, one of sixty-four answers — and, where the lines change, a glimpse of where the situation is moving.

    Say your question out loud — to the room, to the coins, to no one.

    Nothing is typed, recorded, or stored. The Book answers the intention you carry, not the words you enter. When the question is clear in the air between you and the coins, cast.

    The Method

    Three coins are cast six times, building a hexagram from bottom to top. Each line is yang (solid) or yin (broken), and may be a changing line — a moving line that points to a second hexagram, the situation's likely transformation.

    Step by Step

    How to cast an I Ching reading

    Use the three-coin method to consult the Book of Changes and read the hexagram plus any changing lines.

    Approx. 5 min

    1. 1

      Form a clear question

      Phrase the question openly. The I Ching answers situation and movement, not yes/no.

    2. 2

      Cast six times

      Tap to cast three coins six times. Each cast builds one line of the hexagram from bottom to top.

    3. 3

      Read the primary hexagram

      Study the resulting hexagram's judgment and image. This describes the present situation.

    4. 4

      Note any changing lines

      Lines marked as 'old yin' or 'old yang' are in motion. Read their individual texts as guidance on the dynamic.

    5. 5

      Read the resulting hexagram

      If there are changing lines, a second hexagram emerges. It indicates where the situation is moving.
