I CHING [pronounced 'Yee Jing'] means "THE BOOK OF CHANGES".
For over 5000 years the I-CHING has been used to explain present circumstances
and to predict the outcome of future events. The uncanny precision stemming
from these prophesies form sound advice to those who seek an answer...
The predictive principle stems from the fact that the entire universe is undergoing
continuous change.
Yet, at any given moment, the pattern fits a cosmic
holistic design.
I-CHING reveals this truth to the wise listener and the seeker of truth.
Be aware, however, that the advice is relevant only for that particular instant of time!
Selection of the tiles is the key process of the inquiry.
Several techniques emerged in antiquity by casting wooden sticks or coins.
The outcome of the casting selects several of 64 "TILES".
The method used in this program exactly simulates exact ancient selection rules.
The prophesy provided in this program has been carefully prepared to match
the readings from many expert books.
The I CHING answer comes from using 64 TILES, each of which is composed of six lines.
A line on a tile will be either broken or unbroken.
The program used on these web pages graphically represents each type of line as follows:
BROKEN 
OR UNBROKEN 
Six of these lines appear on each tile.
Two complete TILES are generated
One TILE represents the PRESENT
And One TILE represents the FUTURE.
Each TILE has an official name and number which this program also displays.
An example of two complete TILES follows:
PRESENT |
FUTURE |
|
|
The lines are numbered from the bottom upwards with
Line 1 being on the bottom.
In this case, Line 1 is the same for both the Present and the Future.
This is an UNCHANGING line.
Line 2, however, is CHANGING between the Present and the Future.
These are examples of :
UNCHANGING
UNCHANGING
CHANGING
CHANGING
The important aspects of reading this information depend upon noticing
which lines change and which don't.
