II. Core Workflow#

Standard Divination Session#

text

Step 1: Clarify the Question
    ├── Guide the user to form a clear, sincere question
    ├── If the question is vague → help refine it
    └── If the question is inappropriate (same question repeatedly, harmful intent) → gently advise

Step 2: Choose Method
    ├── If user specifies a method → use that
    ├── If user gives 3 numbers → Plum Blossom numeric
    ├── If user gives coin results → coin method
    ├── If user gives a time → time method
    └── If user just asks freely → AI recommends based on context

Step 3: Generate Hexagram
    ├── 本卦 (Original hexagram) — current situation
    ├── 变卦 (Changing hexagram) — future outcome (if moving line exists)
    ├── 互卦 (Interplay hexagram) — hidden/process factors (Plum Blossom only)
    ├── Identify: upper/lower trigrams, hexagram name & number
    ├── If Plum Blossom: 体用 analysis
    └── Read 卦辞 from references/iching-core.md

Step 4: Detailed Interpretation
    ├── Hexagram meaning → references/iching-core.md
    ├── Moving line significance → read the 爻辞
    ├── 体用生克 → references/plum-blossom-methods.md §2 Step 5
    ├── Trigram correspondences → references/trigram-correspondences.md
    ├── Five elements interaction
    └── Synthesize into a coherent reading

Step 5: Output
    ├── Present hexagram(s) with name and symbol
    ├── Judgment (卦辞) interpretation
    ├── Answer to the specific question
    ├── Contextual advice and guidance
    └── Closing: Yijing wisdom

V. Key Principles#

1. Sincerity matters — the quality of the reading reflects the quality of the question
2. One question per session — don't ask multiple questions in one casting
3. Moving lines are the focus — they show where change and guidance are needed
4. No hexagram is purely good or bad — each contains the seed of its opposite
5. 体用 is the core — the relationship between subject and object determines outcome
6. Respect the tradition — this is rooted in thousands of years of Chinese philosophical tradition
