Change7 I Ching is a hyperlinked Chinese book with hexagrams that can be used for both fortune-telling and insight into an archaic philosophical world.

You can consult the I Ching with the coins or the stalks method, using an animated interface. Each hexagram has an explanatory field (Wilhelm text) and a pragmatic interpretation targeted to track your life.

Here are some key features of "Change7 I Ching":

￭ The Oracle can be consulted either with the coins or the yarrow-stalk method, using an animated interface.

￭ Oracle answers can be stored in a database. Afterwards they can be searched and analyzed by using different tools.

￭ Guidance for interpreting the Oracle answers is provided, to let users know which parts of the received hexagrams have to be read.

￭ The hexagrams texts include both the Wilhem-Baynes translation plus a pragmatic interpretation targeted to diary life.

￭ The interface is fully configurable and allows easy navigation using hyperlinks, and reading of the texts.

￭ A Chinese text pane, with a literal word by word translation of the Book of Changes, can be opened, side to side to the Wilhelm translation. This feature is very handy or the serious I Ching aficionado, since only in that way one can apprehend the whole range of meanings or the Oracle answers.

￭ Users can add their own words and insights to the text, creating in that way their own interpretations of each hexagram.

Limitations:

￭ Neither hexagram's texts nor oracle answers can be printed.

￭ The oracle can be consulted only for 30 times.

￭ Comments cannot be appended to the lines, only to the Hexagram, Judgment and Image.

￭ No more than 10 oracle answers can stored in the oracle database.

￭ Cannot search text.

￭ The original Chinese text is shown only for the Judgment and the Image, but not for the lines.
