Liuyao (六爻) — Based on the Huǒzhūlín Classic

Choose what you want to divine, then actually toss six coins to cast a hexagram. We match it against the text of the classics Huǒzhūlín (火珠林) and Zēngshān Bǔyì (增刪卜易) and show you the judgment — together with the source passage, nothing hidden.

What is Liu Yao

A na-jia (納甲) method systematized by Jing Fang of the Han dynasty, assigning a heavenly stem and earthly branch to each of the six lines of a hexagram. We cross-checked this assignment against the original text of the Jingshi Yizhuan — seven of the eight pure hexagrams matched the text character for character; the eighth we have honestly left unmatched for now.

The judgment is based on two classics, the Huozhulin and the Zengshan Buyi. We look at where each line’s five-element phase falls among the four seasonal states, and show the classical passage behind the conclusion alongside the result itself.

This is what sets it apart from Tarot (linked below on this page) — Liu Yao cites the classical text directly, so the same hexagram always gives the same conclusion. It does not change with the querent’s mood or a diviner’s condition on the day.

This is a different kind of question from Saju (四柱) — Saju reads your whole-life structure (chart pattern, useful god, luck cycles) from the moment of birth, while Liu Yao answers one specific question you hold right now (will this marriage happen, will this illness heal, will this pregnancy come, can this lost item be found). Choose Saju if you’re curious about your life’s overall flow, and Liu Yao if you’re curious about something happening right now.

What would you like to divine?

You toss three coins, six times — exactly the classical coin-casting method (擲錢法). Heads count as 3, tails as 2; each toss sums to 6, 7, 8, or 9, and those six numbers stack from the bottom line upward into a hexagram. We show you the actual toss.
