Buy The I Ching 3 Coin (Mini Album) Online
The I Ching, or Book of Changes, is an ancient Chinese divination text. Originally, yarrow sticks were the method of consultation. Over time, three cash coins like these Song dynasty examples, were used instead. The coins were cast, values tabulated, and the process repeated to form a specific hexagram, which could be consulted in the I Ching.
This mini album includes three authentic Song dynasty cash coins. These coins were once used to seek guidance from the I Ching, a practice that involves casting the coins, recording their values, and repeating the process to form a hexagram. Each hexagram carries a specific meaning, offering insight and advice based on ancient wisdom.
