About I Ching Living
Education, reflection, and spatial wisdom for curious readers in the West and beyond.
I Ching Living is an independent project dedicated to making the I Ching and feng shui accessible to English-speaking readers. We believe these traditions offer rich frameworks for thinking about change, balance, and the spaces we inhabit without requiring belief in fortune-telling or superstition.
Our Approach
Every article is written in clear, contemporary English. Classical Chinese texts appear as quoted references with pinyin and translation, never as a barrier to understanding. We draw on respected translations and scholarship while offering modern, practical interpretations you can apply to daily life.
What We Cover
- Philosophy - I Ching philosophy - the book of change and its core ideas
- Hexagrams - 64 hexagrams - situation archetypes with modern readings
- Feng Shui - Feng shui - spatial harmony for homes and workspaces
- Glossary - Glossary - definitions for key terms
