Sit Down, and Read
The classics, on a screen — five arts, each in their own place; readers, each at their own pace.
What this place can do for you
Classical 术数 (the arts of divination), brought to a screen — from casting a chart to reading it, from understanding yourself to asking about the matter in front of you. It’s all here.
Cast a chart in five arts
八字 (Ba Zi) · 六爻 (Liu Yao) · 紫微斗数 (Zi Wei Dou Shu) · 梅花易数 (Mei Hua Yi Shu) · 奇门遁甲 (Qi Men Dun Jia) — five traditional arts. Fill in your birth details (or the question on your mind) and you get a professional chart: Ten Gods, the favourable element, structures and classical citations, all of it.
A plain-language reading
Don’t know the jargon? Every chart comes with a plain-language reading that turns its key points into ordinary words — no background needed to follow it.
Forecasts ahead
Once the chart is cast you can look forward — a day-by-day forecast for the next 21 days, plus monthly, annual and ten-year luck cycles, with the turning points laid out clearly.
A library of classics
A digital study comes with it — the Zhouyi, the Di Tian Sui, the Bu Shi Zheng Zong… every classical line a reading quotes links straight to the source text to read alongside.
Hand your chart to the AI for an in-depth read
A lot of people don’t realise this is here — want to dig into one specific matter? Hand your cast chart to 笺记 (the AI): a whole-chart read-through, a single-topic deep dive, or a back-and-forth Q&A that talks your chart through with you.
A Book — Not an App
We took 八字 · 六爻 · 紫微 · 梅花 · 奇门 — five Chinese mantic arts — and laid them out under one disciplined frame. The classical text stays verbatim; modern plain language sits beside it as a gloss. A tap-to-expand note here, a chart that locks to the prose there. Read the classical, or read the gloss. Go deep, or skim.
Not a divination app. Not a fortune-telling SaaS. A digital library — built to be sat in and read. Readers come here to see, not to be told.
Five Arts, Each in Its Place
Each art has its own origin and its own boundary — pick what suits the question. You need not believe everything; nor dismiss it all.
How We Build, and Why
Classical text, kept verbatim
Verdicts, judgments, and 古诀 stay in their original zh-CN form — no forced poetic translation. Where context aids the reader, a parenthetical gloss sits beside, never in place of.
排盘 (chart view) and 简本 (brief) — two depths
Chart view shows the full board for scholarly depth; brief mode condenses to a modern verdict for everyday use. Same system, two ways in — never blended into a watered-down middle.
Free / paid boundary, declared up front
Free pages and paid pages are drawn at the start — never retrofitted. What is free today will not be retracted tomorrow. We say it plainly so you don't feel hooked.
Content as data
Every verdict line and every gloss is a single D1 row that can be reviewed and corrected. Easy for us to maintain; easy for outside scholars to flag mistakes. Corrections welcome.
About This Project — and Its Readers
We are a small team that would rather do five systems well than chase a broader catalog. We do not comment on living public figures or political matters; case studies are drawn only from deceased international business figures. The readers we have in mind are the Chinese diaspora, scholars of cultural traditions, digital nomads — and anyone who wants to re-read their inherited wisdom on a screen far from home.
On the Words Herein
All material on this site is offered for cultural study and reference. It is not professional medical, legal, financial, or psychological advice. Weigh, decide, and act for yourself — as the saying goes, to wholly believe a book is worse than to read no book at all.
Browse First, Decide Later
The five arts are open to read without an account. Consider a paid plan only when you wish to stay.
