Random I Ching Hexagram Generator

 
Hexagram drawn locally in your browser with the Web Crypto API.

One of the 64 hexagrams

Draw a single hexagram from the complete I Ching set of 64, in King Wen order, with its Unicode glyph, number, English name, and pinyin name (e.g. ䷀ 1 · The Creative (Qián)). Useful for daily oracles, journaling prompts, story ideas, and quick decisions.

Fair random selection

Each cast picks one of the 64 I Ching hexagrams uniformly at random. Rangdom uses the Web Crypto API for random generation so the next hexagram is not predictable from previous casts.

King Wen order

Hexagrams are numbered 1 to 64 in the traditional King Wen sequence, from The Creative (Qián) and The Receptive (Kūn) through to Before Completion (Wèi Jì).

When to use it

Use this generator for quick single-hexagram oracles, daily draws, journaling and writing prompts, teaching the I Ching, and games where one random hexagram is enough.
