I-Ching

Chinese astrological studies have their roots in the I-Ching (易经), the most important book containing the fundamental truth of how the universe operates. Its philosophy has influenced various fields such as biology, medical science, and computer coding. However, to avoid boring you, let's not delve too deep into it just yet.

For I-Ching newbies, the book was commissioned by Emperor Fu Hsi around 3,000 BC. It's known as 'The book of Changes' and explores the relationship between all things created through a variety of trigrams and hexagrams, as well as the relationship between Yin and Yang (such as female and male, hard and soft, life and death).

The 8 Trigrams of the I-Ching

While some view the I-Ching as a book of Oracles, it's much more than that. It's a book of life, literally. DNA, the genetic instructions used in the development and functioning of all known living organisms, is often compared to a set of blueprints, a recipe, or a code.



​​The basis of DNA is + and -. This is also binary code. Computer language operates on this philosophy and so is the basis of all human language.

So, lets look at the similarities between the I-Ching and DNA. In his 1979 book Martin Schonberger (the author of The I Ching and the Genetic Code: The Hidden Key to Life) explained as simple as one can when creating a bridge between science, genetics and oracles.

Firstly you need to know that the I-Ching contains 64 Hexagrams – made up of 8 trigrams each having a relationship with themselves 8 x 8 = 64.
  1. DNA contains the vital processes, structure, heredity and form of all living things. The I-Ching contains the philosophical, moral, physical and psychological makeup of us.
  2. The basis of DNA is the double helix (+ & -). The basis of the I-Ching is Yin (- -) and Yang (-).
  3. Four Letters (ATCG) label the double helix joined in pairs (adenine, thymine, cytosine, guanine). Four combinations make up the combinations of the I-Ching. (Resting Yang -, moving Yang -0-, resting Yin – -, moving Yin ><)
  4. In DNA, three of the (ATCG) make up a code word for protein synthesis. In the I-Ching three letters form a Trigram or primary image
  5. The direction of reading is distinct in both DNA and the I-Ching.
  6. In DNA there are 64 triplets that provide the information power. In the I-Ching there are 64 hexagrams that give us the information.
  7. In DNA two triplets are called beginning and end. In the I-Ching two hexagrams are called before completion and after completion.

Is this co-incidence? If you believe so then I feel you may wish to explore just a little further. G.W. Leibenz created a chart where he compared the binary code with the I-Ching. Every part coincided. But here is what he found…

There are only four combinations of Yin and Yang, with the first two bars of the I-Ching. EG: If we said Yin was represented by 0 and Yang by 1, then the possible combinations are 00, 01, 10, 11. These four choices align with T, C, G, A, which then when multiplied make up the exact number of Amino acids that are part of DNA.

So, what does it all mean?

Here are some food for thoughts for you:
  • Assuming that the 64 hexigrams do relate to DNA, that means our bodily conditions, morals, personality, behaviors and traits are pre-programmed.
  • If DNA can describe and predict an individual inherent biological characteristics and future health conditions, the 64 hexagrams, although is a metaphorical, moral and philosophical representation of life, can also be used to predict life phenomena with high accuracy.
  • By studying I-Ching in-depth, it can reveal to us the hidden or unconscious factors that may be impacting our current or future situation. At the same time, it offers a way of looking at one's current and future circumstances with the right perspective and wisdom, and allow us to unlock some creative energy to solve our problems in life.
