An online coin divination tool for the study and entertainment of I Ching culture. Each click tosses three simulated coins, completing all six lines from bottom to top, starting with the first line, and then viewing the original hexagram and the moving lines that form the hexagram.
For research and entertainment purposes related to the I Ching. The hexagrams do not possess predictive power and should not be used as a basis for investment, medical, or other major decisions.

Each time, three independent coins are generated simultaneously. Heads result in 3, tails result in 2, and the total is either Old Yin, Young Yang, Young Yin, or Old Yang.

HOW IT WORKS
Each click generates three coins in the browser, with only one new line added.
The front side is 3, the back side is 2; a total of 6 or 9 indicates a moving line.
After completing the sixth line, immediately form the original hexagram and the corresponding hexagram; no further confirmation is required.
The results of this coin toss, hexagram divination, and divination are stored only in the current page's memory and are not saved using cookies, browser storage space, or databases.
The methods for determining multiple moving lines follow the rules listed in this tool, but do not represent the only method used by all schools of Yi studies. See the rules reference source. .
IMPORTANT NOTICE
This is for academic research and entertainment purposes only and does not constitute investment advice or a buy/sell signal. The divination results do not generate buy/sell signals, target prices, stop-loss prices, return guarantees, or individual stock recommendations.
The following six coin tosses are examples for easy manual calculation and are not guest records. The tool above generates coins randomly each time you press a button; you cannot specify which set to toss. Your actual results will usually differ. This demonstrates how to obtain the same hexagram from recorded coins.
The sum of heads is 3, and the sum of tails is 2. The sum of one head and two tails is 7; the sum of three heads is 9. 7 is Lesser Yang, which remains unchanged, and 9 is Greater Yang, which changes. The sums of the other two are 6 (Greater Yin, which changes) and 8 (Lesser Yin, which remains unchanged).
| Order/position of lines | Three coins | total | nature |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1/chuyao | Positive, Negative, Anti- | 7 | Shaoyang |
| Second line/Second hexagram | Positive, Negative, Anti- | 7 | Shaoyang |
| Three/Three Lines | Positive, Negative, Anti- | 7 | Shaoyang |
| Fourth line/fourth hexagram | Positive, Negative, Anti- | 7 | Shaoyang |
| Fifth/Fifth line | Positive, Negative, Anti- | 7 | Shaoyang |
| Six/Upper Line | Right, right, right | 9 | Lao Yang |
All six lines in this hexagram are yang, therefore both the upper and lower trigrams are qian (☰), resulting in the first hexagram "qian" (☰). Only the sixth line is 9, so the only moving line is the upper line. If we turn it into yin, the lower trigram is still qian, and the upper trigram changes from bottom to top to yang, yang, yin, becoming dui (☱). The upper trigram dui and the lower trigram qian form the forty-third hexagram "guai" (☤).
According to the usage method of this tool, when a moving line appears, the main interpretation is based on that line in the original hexagram. In this example, it is the ninth line of the Qian hexagram, "The dragon soars too high and regrets." The screen will display the text of that line and the modern reflections on the original project, without fabricating a second interpretation. This sentence is the original classical text, not the system's evaluation of you.
You can rephrase it as your own observation question: "Am I pushing myself too hard on a small matter, and where can I leave room for maneuver?" This is an original question from MOOSSin, and it doesn't deduce your actual situation from the divination. Don't use it to assert what will happen next, or treat cultural symbols as trading signals.

The hexagram and line texts, along with the imagery, are from the classical text of the *I Ching*; the analogies and the paragraphs marked "Market Reflection" are modern interpretations of the original project. Reflection serves as a general behavioral reminder and should be understood separately from the classical text. Different schools of thought may use these terms differently.
