Hi PH! I studied the Yijing (I Ching) at Peking University in Beijing, and I’ve kept up the practice for years. Friends often asked me to help interpret their readings.
Most online tools do a fine job generating hexagrams and changing lines. Where they often stop is the reasoning: why does a given outcome lead to a particular interpretation? And how should the interpretation adapt to the way you asked (self vs. other, internal vs. external, stage/position)?
So I built Ask Yi. It keeps the classic 3-coin method, then applies a structured logic layer: a 4,096-outcome map, hexagram and line texts, and context cues extracted from your question. An AI-assisted writer turns that into plain English, and you can open “Show Work” to see the path from result → reasoning.
Why this matters: consistency and clarity. The same outcome should follow the same steps, while still reflecting how you asked. If you’re curious, try a reading and open “Show Work.” I’d love feedback on clarity, edge cases, and where the logic could be tighter.
Pricing: free web reading for now; more to come. Thanks for taking a look!
I Ching reading — free online, tailored to your question.
It combines the traditional I-Ching coin method with AI, giving clear and thoughtful interpretations. What impressed me most is its transparency—you can see the reasoning behind each reading, making it insightful and easy to understand.
Disclosure: I’m a friend of the maker and tested early builds.
What stood out was explainability. The Reasoning panel shows exactly how the advice follows from hexagram → line texts → question context. It felt more like a decision journal than a “fortune.” My ask for v1.x: Notion/Markdown export and a way to tag readings (career/relationships).
