About.

A plain-language edition of a very old book.

The I Ching has been read for three thousand years, usually through layers of commentary. This edition keeps the layers thin: the received text, a plain rendering, and a short editorial note where the text needs context.

It is built for people who want to think with the book rather than be told what will happen. The cast is random by design; the reading is fixed by the text. Nothing here is personalized by a model, and no question is stored.

Editorial policy

• Prefer the plain meaning of the text over clever readings.
• Mark interpretation as interpretation.
• Do not promise outcomes, diagnose, or give advice that belongs to a professional.
• Show the passage behind every claim.
