I encourage you to read up on other sources of knowledge for the I Ching, because I’m sure there are I Ching experts who would quibble with mine. I’ve based it on three sources I personally own. I’ve never sat down to calculate all the possible potential throws you could get with the I Ching, but it’s probably way more than 448.Īttached below are my list of the 384 changing lines and their meanings. And that’s assuming you get only zero or one changing line to the hexagram you throw you could get more than one, or none. Added together with the hexagrams themselves, that’s 448 possible answers. There are 384 changing lines attached to the 64 hexagrams. When each person flips over the changing lines they threw in Hexagram 63, the resultant hexagram, which shows what their situations will change into, are also going to be different hexagrams. But the specific message of Hexagram 63 to each person will differ because their changing lines are different. They both get the same essential message: culmination, achievement, a day that starts out well and deteriorates later. Its inherent flexibility allows for ‘tailoring’ the specific message to you.įor example, a person who throws Hexagram 63 and gets changes in lines in 2 and 4 is not going to get quite the same message as another person who throws the same hexagram and gets changes in lines 1 and 3. I know of no other divination method, period, that has a changing feature like this. Across the top line of the table the upper trigrams are listed. The bottom three lines, the lower trigram, are all solid. The top three lines, the upper trigram, are all broken. No other Symbolomancy method I’ve covered in this blog has separate meanings for each component of a card’s picture. To find out which hexagram it is and where the information about it is, Go to the Find Hexagram table to find the Hexagram Number. The distinguishing feature which separates the I Ching from all other Symbolomancy methods is the ‘Changing Lines’.
