What is the I Ching?
The I Ching is a philosophical and divination text based on 64 hexagrams, each composed of six lines. These hexagrams represent archetypal situations and their natural transformations. The system recognizes that:
- Change is constant - All situations evolve and transform
- Patterns repeat - Similar circumstances arise in cycles
- Balance is key - Yin and yang forces seek equilibrium
- Timing matters - Knowing when to act or wait is crucial
