I Ching

The I Ching (Yijing) — the Book of Changes — is the oldest of the Chinese classics, a text that has shaped East Asian thought for over three thousand years. Far more than a divination manual, it is a profound philosophical system centered on one simple yet infinite idea: everything changes, and wisdom lies in understanding the patterns of change.

This series explores the I Ching in depth — its legendary origins with Fu Xi, the eight trigrams and their symbolism, the structure of the 64 hexagrams, the philosophy of yin and yang, the historical layers added by King Wen and Confucius, the practice of divination, and how this ancient text remains relevant in modern life.

Whether you are a student of philosophy, a seeker of wisdom, or simply curious about one of humanity’s oldest books, this series will guide you through the luminous depths of the Book of Changes.
