Hexagram Dreams is an I Ching app for people who want more than a quick answer. Build a divination journal, use the question coach to ask better questions, and get a custom divination interpretation for every I Ching reading. Track your patterns over time with advanced analytics no other I Ching app offers, and build a consistent practice you will actually keep. Use the I Ching as a daily reflection practice. Cast with intention. Explore the meaning. Make decisions with perspective. Whether it is a relationship, a career crossroads, or a feeling you can not quite name, the I Ching helps you slow down and see your situation from a wiser angle. HOW IT WORKS ◆ Focus on your question - write down your concern. The quality of your question shapes the quality of your hexagram reading. ◆ Cast your hexagram - use the traditional 3 coin toss method line by line. ◆ Interpret your I Ching reading - explore the primary hexagram, changing lines, and the resulting hexagram. ◆ Reflect and save - add personal notes, save your reading in your spiritual journal, and revisit it later to see how things unfolded. STATISTICS FOR YOUR READINGS JOURNAL Once you have a few readings logged, Hexagram Dreams turns your journal into a quiet mirror. Here is part of what it shows you: - Total number of readings you have cast - Your average pace (readings per week) - Your best streak of consecutive days - How many of the 64 hexagrams you have encountered, and which ones come up most - Pro adds advanced stats: reading rhythm heatmap, recurring transformations, changing lines by position, five elements balance and trigram distribution. QUESTION COACH Try question suggestions for inspiration. Try rephrase question feature to change the question. Try follow up questions for more ideas. CUSTOM READING Hexagram explanations are sometimes cryptic, try the Custom interpretation feature. PRACTICE REMINDER Set reminders on the weekdays and at the time you choose to build a consistent I Ching reflection habit and maintain your streak. Configurable from settings or from the app sidebar. BACKUP Login if you want your history to be synced to cloud. That way you're safe if you change phones, or want to use it from another device. Same can be achieved with exporting the database, but you have to remember to do it manually. You can also export your readings to pdf or csv (top right menu from diary screen) ARE YOU A TRADITIONAL I CHING PRACTITIONER? If you prefer to use yarrow stalks or your own coins for casting, and prefer to read original Zhouyi, or Wilhelm-Baynes translation? You can still use this app solely for keeping a journal of your readings (use manual input to enter your hexagrams). One benefit is keeping track of your readings, so you can reflect on them later on. Other benefit is the Statistics that Hexagram Dreams offers you. ABOUT THE I CHING Also known as the Yi Jing, Yijing, or Book of Changes, the I Ching is an ancient Chinese divination system built around 64 hexagrams, each representing a unique state of transformation. Rooted in Taoism, it does not tell you what to do. It helps you see how things are shifting and what attitude leads to the best outcome. The goal is not future prediction for its own sake, but perspective, timing, and alignment. All feedback is welcome at support@hexagramdreams.com.
