The Free 7-Day I Ching Practice
One short letter a day, from Adam Bauer. By the end of the week you'll know how to cast, read, and act on your own readings.
Start the practiceWhat you'll learn
- Day 1
What the I Ching actually is — and your first reading
Set aside the mystique. Cast a real hexagram before the day is out.
- Day 2
How to ask a question the oracle can answer
The reading is only as good as the question. Learn to shape one that returns something useful.
- Day 3
Reading a hexagram without drowning in the book
A simple way to find the heart of a reading instead of getting lost in commentary.
- Day 4
Changing lines: the part of the reading addressed to you
The most specific guidance the I Ching offers — and where the situation is already turning.
- Day 5
From insight to commitment — one action, one restraint
Turn the reading into a single thing to do and a single thing to hold back from.
- Day 6
The review: where the practice becomes real
Return to what you committed to. This is the day the practice starts to compound.
- Day 7
Going deeper — practicing in company
Where to take it from here, and how the I Ching opens up when practiced with others.
Who it's from
Adam Bauer has been practicing the I Ching since he was sixteen — forty-five years of daily consultation, and twenty-five of teaching it to others. The letters are written the way he teaches: plainly, one small step at a time, with nothing assumed.
