I want to learn Zhouyi, especially divination, and what books to read is better. Some experts in research gave some suggestions.

First, skim the Book of Changes. Although this book doesn't teach you how to divination directly, skimming can help you get familiar with the words and phrases of the sixty-four hexagrams. It doesn't matter if you don't understand, just skip it. Just be familiar with the composition of hexagrams. For example, Dazhuang is the name of a hexagram, indicating that this hexagram is composed of shaking hexagrams and dry hexagrams (Lei uses shaking hexagrams to indicate that the sky uses dry hexagrams)

Next, I began to see some special divination teachers. Beginners usually learn plum blossom easy number first. Plum blossoms can teach you the core theories of divination: Yin and Yang, Eight Diagrams and Five Elements. Because you are a novice, plum blossom doesn't need you to learn too advanced. Just learn to tell good from bad. Although plum blossom is simple, the simplest kung fu is also the deepest. Except for genius, it is generally difficult for beginners to reach the realm of taking plum blossom as god.

In the third step, plum blossoms can only simply break good or bad luck, but people are often not satisfied. They also want to know what will happen, the process and the result. But beginners obviously can't solve this problem with plum blossoms. Therefore, it is a good choice to learn six tricks (also known as the nail biting method). In China, more than 80% people like to use six hexagrams to break divination. I recommend reading Liao Moxiang's Book of Changes Prediction Guide. Although Shao Weihua's I Ching Prophecy can also be read, I personally think it is not as good as the former. If you want to study further, you must read ancient books. At this point, you are an introduction to the Book of Changes, and you can go on your own.
