Consult the I Ching Oracle!

I Ching (易經), The Book of Changes, is one of the oldest Chinese classic texts. It defines an intricate divination system based on six lines, where each line may either be broken (- - = yin) or unbroken (--- = yang). The resulting 64 hexagrams are each one associated with text of great wisdom.

The process of consulting I Ching as an oracle involves determining the hexagram by a method of random generation and then reading and contemplating the text associated with that hexagram.

How to use the I Ching Oracle App:

After stating your question, two hexagrams are created based on the outcome from the casting of three coins in the app; the first Hexagram describes the present situation and the second the future or the developed situation.

This app hence gives the user a simple way to consult the I Ching Oracle and can also be used as reference to determine the meaning of any hexagram or trigram of choice according to I Ching.
