I Ching Information

The I Ching has two distinct functions.

The first is as a compendium and classic of ancient cosmic principles.

The second function of divination text.

As a divination text the world of the I Ching is use as guidance and it can be used as an oracle.

 

The text of the I Ching is a set of oracular statements represented by 64 sets of six lines each called hexagrams.

Each hexagram is a figure composed of six stacked horizontal lines , each line is either Yang (an unbroken, or solid line), or Yin (broken, an open line with a gap in the center).

With six such lines stacked from bottom to top there are 26 or 64 possible combinations, and thus 64 hexagrams represented.

 

Casting the hexagrams used to be done with the yarrow stalk method, but this was gradually replaced with the three coins method.
