Understanding the 64 Hexagrams: A Beginner's Guide

The I Ching consists of 64 hexagrams, each composed of six lines that can be either broken (yin) or solid (yang). These hexagrams represent the fundamental patterns of change in the universe. For beginners, it's important to understand that each hexagram carries multiple layers of meaning - from personal guidance to philosophical insights about the nature of reality. Learning to interpret these symbols is a journey of self-discovery and cosmic connection.
