I Ching Online for DummiesVery short instruction:


You are visiting the online version of the I Ching, the classic Book-of-Changes.
Any vital question you may have, ask it here.
(Ask advice, about your health, your relation, your career, or even how to fix your TV set that is broken.)
Enter your question in the available textbox, if you want.
(You don't need to, but it helps you concentrate on the issue.)
Click "Continue", and throw the coins six times.
"Throw coins virtually" (the program throws for you), or "Throw coins by hand" (and fill in the result yourself).
Click "Read", to read the answer.
The different aspects of the answer to your question are given in four different tabs:
The "Cast Hexagram" explains the situation you are now in, or what has gone before.
The "Changing Lines" (if there are any) are the lines that move into their opposite.
Only one of them applies especially to your question.
The "Transformed Hex" describes the future situation, after the lines have changed, and if you follow the advice the I Ching has given.
In the "Trigram Symbols" you can read the interpretation of the two Trigrams that the Cast Hexagram is made of.

At the bottom of every tab there is a button "Read original text".
Click this button to read the original Richard Wilhelm translation for that Hexagram or Changing Line.
When you entered a real question (did not leave the textbox empty), at the bottom of the last tab appears a button "Custom search".
Press this button to generate a Google custom search for the literal question you typed in, and be surprised by the results you get.

Enjoy it!
