" "Divination" is to predict the development of future events, and the "Book of Changes" is a book that summarizes the laws and theories of these predictions.

The "Book of Changes" covers everything, outlines the rules of society, and is the core of Chinese culture It is an outstanding representative; it is vast, subtle, and all-encompassing. It is also the source of Chinese civilization. Its content covers many fields such as philosophy, politics, life, literature, art, science, etc. It is the first of the group of classics and the most common classic of Confucianism and Taoism. .

Its sutra hexagrams all have eight, and its different hexagrams have four out of sixty." That is to say, in the Zhou Dynasty, the three Yis "Lianshan Yi", "Gui Zang Yi" and "Zhou Yi" were controlled by diviners to predict national events, military wars and sacrificial activities.
