How it works
- 1. You type one question. It is usually a decision, not a feeling.
- 2. The cast gives you a hexagram, a moving line, and a direction.
- 3. You get one answer — go, wait, or look again — and the reason it points that way.
No account is needed. There is no chat history to manage, no dashboard, no streak to keep.
Where YUBAO sits
- · It is not a prediction service. It will never tell you what will happen.
- · It is not therapy, coaching, or a diagnosis.
- · It is not a productivity framework or a journaling app.
- · It is a cultural reading — three thousand years of Chinese practice, applied to the moment you are in.
