It presents a philosophy of life based on nature's way, providing universal principles of human conduct to follow. I Ching is also an ancient method of divination for predicting the future or for receiving direction for a course of action. Found within the text are the sixty-four hexagrams that represent all the phenomena in the universe with continual interaction of all forces and elements in the universe. Each hexagram serves as the medium for interpreting nature's way.
