YiWord — Word of Modus Operandi
The Yijing (Book of Changes) uses yin and yang lines, trigrams, and 64 hexagrams with 384 line positions to describe how to recognize situations, choose actions, and bear consequences in a changing world. This site provides original text, translation, and commentary in three languages: Traditional Chinese, Simplified Chinese, and English.
64 Hexagrams
Each hexagram represents a complete situation; each line represents a position and stage within it.
Ten Wings (易傳十翼)
Tuan, Xiang, Xici, Wenyan, Shuogua, Xugua, and Zagua — ten chapters developing Zhouyi symbols into discourse on cosmic change and human action.
Introduction
What is the Yijing? Content, formation, authors, trigrams, reading method, and modern usage boundaries.
Usage boundary: This site positions the Yijing as a classical cultural, philosophical, and structured reflection tool. Divination is a historical and cultural function, but obtained hexagrams should not be claimed to have scientifically verified predictive accuracy.
