I-Ching (I-C) - The Book of Change
I-Ching is the ancient philosophy of mathematical projection on daily matters. In ancient times, I-Ching, astrology and palmistry were all listed as parts of healing art.
I-Ching - The Book of Change is an ancient record of the Chinese mathematical projection on daily matters. Presently, people try to use these records as examples in their daily life matters which are still acceptable. However, the actual calculation or application of the I-Ching is always neglected. Some people claim they also use the coin method. Nonetheless, not very many of them understand the relationship between the hexagram, the moon and date, as well as the six clans or the six animals.
