The Yijing Hexagrams depict 64 images of life, each with 6 Liners for societal strata. A total of 384 human situations are covered with predictions and advice for actions. Life is never static, Yijing basic tenet are Changes with inter-conversion of Hexagrams. A total of 64x64 or 4096 combinations, covering any imaginable situation variations. Hence the Yijing has been popular for oracular consultation down the centuries. Herein are topical discussions of what can be learned from the Yijing in its entirety. Examples of consultation are also documented to illustrate enjoyment of using Jijing. For teaching morals and counselling, the Yijing's full potential has yet to be realised.
