The universe is constantly in change and Yin and Yang must change in order to create balance. In order to understand the philosophy of I Ching, the understanding of the hexagram must be made during its cast. There are a few ways this is done. Traditionally 50 yarrow stalks were used but in modern times dice, beads, and coins are used to cast the hexagram symbols.

I designed a simple game to let people understand I Ching Prediction easily. A coin is flipped for a total of 6 times in order to gain the six lines. And from these six coin tosses, a hexagram will be calculated according to its number.

It is important to understand that each symbol is neutral and has neither a good or bad meaning. Instead, the possibilities of events can be either favorable or unfavorable. Each 64 hexagram has a different meaning and sometimes can be difficult to read or to understand the divination. Be receptive, read between the lines, and allow connections to become clear.

Bruh, you know when you flip a coin to decide and then you know you wanted the other choice? This is that. A way to think things through.

I would say the I Ching is just as consistent and coherent a model of spacetime than general relativity, if not more accurate.
