Results for "384 cards"

Why does Khổng Minh Thần Toán have exactly 384 cards?

Because 384 equals 64 hexagrams multiplied by 6 moving lines. Each hexagram in the Bát Quái (Eight Trigrams) has six possible moving lines, and each combination of hexagram with moving line is assigned its own card with a verse, a translation, a commentary and an interpretation. The person seeking a reading casts a combination and then looks up that exact card, rather than interpreting it themselves from the line texts of the Chu Dịch (I Ching).
