The I-Ching, or Book of Changes, is the world's oldest
book and earliest known intuitive decision-making system. Based on the
binary logic of yin/yang, it is used to derive personal strategy and
insights based on natural wisdom -- as pertaining to human problems that
logic alone cannot handle.
The I-Ching is the oldest and wisest oracular system in the world. Some
3000 to 4000 years old, it is also the oldest known book. Used for
centuries by sages and emperors of China, it is a profound system that
tracks some 322,560 possible permutations of 6-line (hexagram) yin/yang
combinations. Each one of these represents a particular kind of human
characteristic or situation
An I Ching interpretation is performed by making six binary decisions (a
hexagram). This is called 'casting the I Ching'. These are written down
as a stack of six solid or broken lines. This was traditionally done
either by tossing yarrow stalks or coins, although there is no reason why
the hexagrams can't be generated by some other means (such as a computer
program).
