Explore an interactive English version of "The I Ching or Book of Changes" by Richard Wilhelm, edited by Hellmut Wilhelm, and translated by Cary F. Baynes, using a coin oracle or yarrow stalks, and an integrated journal. NOTE: The text is only in English. The I Ching, or Book of Changes, a common source for both Confucianist and Taoist philosophy, is one of the first efforts of the human mind to place itself within the universe. It has exerted a living influence in China for 3,000 years, and interest in it has been rapidly spreading in the West. “Princeton's Bollingen edition—still regarded as the best and most authentic by I Ching aficionados.” The complete work is available in three books. Book I is included with the I Ching or Book of Changes app. Book I includes Judgments pertaining to the diagrams as a whole, the line texts, and the Great Images. Book II and III are available for additional in-app purchase. Book II: The Material Contains the Shuo Koa and the Ta Chuan from the Ten Wings, plus The Structure of the Hexagrams. Book III: The Commentaries Contains passages from the Ten Wings considered commentary to the texts, and On Consulting the Oracle. Text © 1950, 1967, renewed 1977 by Princeton University Press.

Since I found this app I have been reading the text more infrequently and have learned so much more from Wilhelm’s writings than any other translation available. The app allows a deeper understanding of the trigrams and is a real treasure to own. The ease of use and clarity is so important to me and has made the study a daily joyful experience. -- BH tv, 2024-01-22 ### ***** "Love the original text and multi- method throws" Only thing I’d want is easier text formatting. I love the way it serves as a journal, and you can even export. -- MissDlishus, 2022-11-14 ### **--- "Was wonderful; now it’s very glitchy with “coins”" Was a wonderful app. Used for almost ten years. My dependable friend is now consistently glitchy and stuck and the forced use of the “coins” is performative, slow and annoying. Simplicity is good, useless ornamentation is not. Very disappointed. Sad, even. -- maggieweathers, 2022-10-14 ### *---- "I use this everyday." Updated: With the recent update my entire journal history was wiped away. Years of readings. Moments of profound contemplation, crucial turning points in my life and my realizations relevant to them. It was a huge loss for me. My previous review This is a really great app. It is a way to cast the Yi Ching, with some other great features. But it also includes a translation of the Yi Ching that is very good. Wilhelm's translation is my favorite. Reading the book feels like sitting with a wise old granddad that instructs you in what to be careful of as you navigate the world. It is exactly the type of wisdom our modern culture has eliminated from our character. The text alone is worth the price of the app. But that it includes statistically accurate casting makes it a really great value. It is easy to use. Really, get this app. Great product. -- Epikierian, 2021-11-23 ### ***** "I Ching Whilhelm" Nothing better, period -- Crowman92, 2021-05-19 ### ***** "Thanks" Impressive collection clearly presented and emanates potential. Excellent and helpful. -- dayweeks, 2021-04-25 ### ***** "Ancient Wisdom is needed to guide us today" The ancients used wisdom tools Such as the I Ching to build great civilizations of high moral character. It’s because the counsel received pointed to elevating the character of the one asking the I Ching the question. Today this same guidance is needed more than ever. Imagine if the leaders of society consulted the I Ching before they made important decisions. You can create a culture of living by wisdom now. Learn the I Ching and make a better present and better future for yourself and family. -- M for evernote, 2020-09-28 ### ***-- "text" Love the Wilhelm I Ching ap for readings. The only thing I would improve on is that it’s very tiny text and you can’t make it larger or stretch it out with a touch to make it larger and more easy to read -- Ltb35, 2020-07-19 ### ***** "Online Wilhelm I Ching" I’ve consulted this I Ching book for decades. It is my favorite. I usually use the coin method, but I enjoy the yarrow stalks in the app too. I usually meditate on my question at least the night before consulting the oracle so that my question is already to go when I consult the app. Then in just a few shakes, the Universe lines up and answers my question. To me the I Ching Is not a plaything, but a serious way of looking at my life. I consulted the Book of Changes at the beginning of the pandemic. My hexagram? Number 5, changing to number 17 with lines 2, 3, and 4. It as all came to pass. I also enjoy printing my hexagrams, even though they are located in the convenient journal. I’ve been using this app ever since it was released. This is my favorite version of the Book of Change, and it’s good to always have it on my iPhone, close by. Thank you -- Zzzzzzzzzzzz!!, 2020-07-01 ### ***** "Glad I found this" Using other apps, I've had to make do with questionable modernised summaries of this great text. I've been looking for an app that uses the actual text, and now I've found it. -- Transparentes, 2018-09-23 ### ***** "A brilliant app" I have carried around the Wilhelm translation of the I Ching for 30 years but no longer. This is the 'must have' app for serious students of the I Ching who wish to experience the profound wisdom this book has to offer. It does everything I need, question the oracle, lay out the hexagram for the present, lay out the changing lines and resultant hexagram for the future. It also has a journal function and an option to buy Book II and Book III. I cannot recommend this app too highly, an excellent app. -- Rupert4444, 2014-12-09 ### *---- "a frozen mess with latest OS update" Great program seemingly not maintained by its developers. What a pity as this is the I Ching to have. Until they get the fix up, my advice is buy the book. -- JustDucks, 2014-10-23 ### ***** "They did it right ! The original." Well I was waiting for this, the original translation of R. Wilhelm. I have carried this book around the world for 25 years for the infinite wisdom it provides to who wants to listen. It is a classic. I do still like to throw the coins myself but what is important is that this is the real thing, the real book. The I Ching book of mutations is a strange world and at the same time familiar. Self knowledge is the ultimate goal here, the work has to do with a careful search for our character, attitudes and motivations in life. A mysterious spiritual book with enough Mystery that can make you wonder why one loves this book so much, it is like life: a miracle. It is an action book that never gets old and to have it in the iPad is a beautiful thing when one knows it is a cultural treasure. Get this study it you will be studying yourself and the workings of the soul of the world and your own. Thank you for the quality of keeping to the original translation version from Chinese to German by Richard Wilhelm. Before this iPad version my printed 25 year old book would stay home being too heavy to carry in my travels, now I will go with this magnificent source work everywhere. In my opinion this work the is inexhaustible. -- Pablo Marquez, 2013-08-01 ### ***** "40 year student of the Wilhelm / Baynes translation" The old worn yellow book has been once around the globe on my back. It has been a constant companion thru love and marriage, loss and regret, births and deaths. It had wisdom to offer whenever I was able to listen. My book is over 40 years old, my yarrow stalks are younger, probably only 30 years old <grin> Now my life runs on an iPad. Where else can you keep thousands of names and addresses, calendars for several family members a few different businesses, tasks accessible by project and context, instant communication and research? Now I can consult an old Chinese friend and record our conversations.. Here comes the important part, how did Flat Earth do with this application? If I could give it more than 5 stars, I would. The attention to detail is amazing. For example, they recognized the different probabilities between coins and stalks, and when throwing the stalks they describe where they are being placed in your fingers. Yes, to the unfamiliar--it all matters. The better the question; the more present you are as you discern the answer; the more truth comes out. Are there things that can be improved? Yes. in a perfect world, I would be able to import old journals, consult any translation, look at patterns in receiving certain hexagrams, trigrams, lines, or even asking the same questions. I believe they are adding some of these capabilities in future versions. But don't wait buy it now! Consider getting the Yi Jing version by the same author. Soon I hope we will be able to bring over the in app purchases of the Princeton Press version. I am quite willing to pay for different translations, but I would actually be even happier if they only had one engine for the casting of the stalks, throwing the coins, and capturing the journal entries. This is a great program, a wonderful source of wisdom. Buy it right now! -- CastIronFoody, 2011-10-05 [View all The I Ching or Book of Changes reviews and detailed analytics on AppTail](https://apptail.io/account/signup?utm_campaign=ai-crawl&utm_content=reviews) ## The I Ching or Book of Changes In-App Purchases | Item | Price | |------|-------| | Book III: The Commentaries | $4.99 | | Book II: The Material | $4.99 | ## The I Ching or Book of Changes Store Rankings | Chart | Country | Category | Rank | |-------|---------|----------|------| | Top Paid | Greece | Entertainment | #300 | | Top Paid | Ireland | Entertainment | #315 | | Top Paid | Israel | Entertainment | #355 | | Top Paid | Singapore | Entertainment | #360 | | Top Paid | Czechia | Entertainment | #369 | | Top Paid | Romania | Entertainment | #376 | | Top Paid | Poland | Entertainment | #376 | | Top Paid | Argentina | Entertainment | #381 | | Top Paid | Brazil | Entertainment | #394 | | Top Paid | Chile | Entertainment | #403 | | Top Paid | Italy | Entertainment | #409 | | Top Paid | South Africa | Entertainment | #412 | | Top Paid | Portugal | Entertainment | #427 | | Top Paid | Türkiye | Entertainment | #435 | | Top Paid | Mexico | Entertainment | #442 | | Top Paid | Spain | Entertainment | #444 | | Top Paid | Indonesia | Entertainment | #448 | | Top Paid | South Korea | Entertainment | #448 | | Top Paid | Russia | Entertainment | #461 | | Top Paid | Egypt | Entertainment | #473 | | Top Paid | Philippines | Entertainment | #475 | | Top Paid | Canada | Entertainment | #491 | | Top Paid | Denmark | Entertainment | #491 | ## The I Ching or Book of Changes Discovered Keywords -
