I'm curious about how often people using this forum consult Yijing.
There might be for some two levels of useage - the run of the mill every day usage frequency and the OMG life's giving me a real hard time at the moment frequency.

Just as a starter I'll share that I have done 8 in the last 30 days. I'd consider this period to be in the run of the mill category.

The first few years that I was learning,
I probably casted 1/day.
Mostly that was to learn, by doing daily general readings like "what's up today?"
"What's good to do today?"
and there were a few crisis that found me casting 5 or more times.

Now I only cast for important things that I have trouble deciding about.
So, maybe once every few weeks.

Yes, learning is a category of usage I'd overlooked. I was very much into the Meng Frequency range for a lot of those early times. I think you did well to get away so lightly at 1 / day.

I consult on average, for all areas of my life, less than 10 times a year. Each consultation has a lifetime of many months. I see the readings as an active contemplation of each area that led me to make the consultation. For example, in my work I have a consultation that helps me to focus the best of myself to perform my function. The main hexagram showed a time of 8 months, so I bring with me, in the form of "background music", the contemplation of this reading, during this time, in my work schedule.


Cheers, :)

I love the idea of the reading being 'background music' to our life.
Would you be able to share a little more to explain how you worked out that the main hexagram's influence lasted 8 months.

I don't really know, it varies. Right now possibly once a week or less

Hi, my_key

"....explain how you worked out that the main hexagram's influence lasted 8 months"

The method has everything to do with Ricardo Andreé's work on measuring time in hexagrams, published here in the forum.
I use the simplest approach possible to avoid the problems that sometimes appear in the reading of time.
I use only the outer trigram to mark the end of time of the contemplation.

Cheers, :)

From 7-8 times a day, to 15-16 more or less, depending on the day.
That is not always ,though, there can be periods where I don't ask at all for weeks, depends on health and stuff.
