I Ching · Manual Cast
Manual I Ching Cast
Enter a known six-line structure directly, or choose a primary hexagram and the lines that move. Manual Cast is useful for studying a paper cast, checking a transformation, or returning to a saved structure without introducing new randomness.
Question · optional for a free cast
What would you like to reflect on?
A question can give this free reading a useful frame. It is optional and does not change the casting method or the six-line facts.
Up to 500 Unicode characters. A question is optional.
Two equivalent input modes
Mode A accepts six explicit values—6, 7, 8, or 9—from line 1 at the bottom through line 6 at the top. Mode B accepts a primary hexagram plus zero to six moving positions, then maps stable yin/yang to 8/7 and moving yin/yang to 6/9.
One shared result
Both modes use the same deterministic primary/changing/relating calculation and the same rich result. With no moving lines, no relating hexagram card is created. Nothing is sent to an AI service just to form the hexagram.
