Description
The Yi Jing Library allows you to consult the Yi Jing and supports your interpretation with technologically advanced tools.
The Library of the App contains an extensive database of various authors’ authoritative works. The exact text passages relating to your question are displayed at a glance upon a single movement of your finger. You can also compare the texts of different authors side by side. Today, the library already contains more than 12 books with over 4,000 pages of comments, each of which can be downloaded for a fee. Leafing through thick tomes to get your information will be a thing of the past.
The same probabilities are used to determine the answers as if you were querying the oracle in the traditional way with yarrow bars and coins. The structure of each hexagram and its trigrams and lines are explained with images (answer hexagram, trend hexagram, core hexagram, counter hexagram, anti hexagram, constituent and dominant lines). The dynamics of the individual signs are explained in a commentary published for the first time from the point of view of Western system theory. This commentary offers completely new views on the Yi Jing.
The Yi Jing library does not contain advertising texts or use cookies. Once downloaded, the app works without a connection to the Internet. Only you have access to your stored questions and answers.
The basic version of the Yi Jing library contains all the necessary elements for working with the Yi Jing. In the premium version you have more tools at your disposal (a comparison function, selection of fonts, downloading of books, collection of general questions to the Yi Jing, etc.).
Currently, you find the original Yi Jing text in the app, combined with translations and interpretations of Hexagrams 1-64 of the following authors: Richard Wilhelm (German and Russian Editions), Cary Baynes (English Edition), J-B. Régis (Latin edition from the 17th century, accessible to the public for the first time), J. Legge (new in the Wilhelm structure), H. Barrett (English), K. and R. Huang (English), S. Karcher (English), D. Schilling (German), R. Simon (German), A. Stahel (German, English), Yang & Zhang (Chinese), Bradford Hatcher (English).
The number of available works is constantly growing.

Ratings and Reviews
For serious Yi Jing connoisseurs
This app has a complete feature set (direct hexagram access, hexagram derivations), and it lets you buy a couple of hitherto-unavailable Yi Jing commentaries quite cheaply, such as the Régis in Latin, or the Wilhelm in Russian.
All commentaries are cleanly structured. You don't see them as regular books, but all of them in the original Yi Jing arrangement. This makes comparisons between different commentaries easier.
Sehr schön und gut gemacht
Leider sind aber die recht wenigen Bücher in der Bibliothek zum Verstehen der Hexagramme nur bedingt hilfreich. Die Interpretation von Herr Stahel sind sehr gut geschrieben, aber gehen meiner Meinung nach nur bedingt auf die Deutung der Hexagramme ein. So werden zB Wandlungslinien nicht behandelt. Die App sonst ist wirklich sehr gut gemacht - ausser, dass die App sich nicht über weitere Geräte synchronisieren lässt. Ich bin aber gerne bereit, die Kritik zu überdenken und zu ändern.
