Follow-up sessions are for continued support after a previous I Ching reading. Often, more is revealed in the hours, days, and even weeks following a divination. These sessions support your ongoing insights, help you integrate the guidance from past readings and can also provide space to nurture the intentional changes you feel called to make as a result of the initial reading. Over time, follow-ups can become a space for reflection, integration, and growth. They help nurture an ongoing relationship with the guidance already received, and with yourself.

Follow-up sessions don’t include a new divination reading with the I Ching. If a new question arises or you feel it’s time to consult the oracle again, a full I Ching Divination Reading is more appropriate.

Please note that follow-up sessions are only available to those who’ve had a prior I Ching Divination Reading.

I encourage you to bring just one main question or line of inquiry to each session. The I Ching works best when we approach it with focused intention—it allows us to go deeper, uncover more meaningful insight, and truly explore the heart of the matter. If multiple concerns are present, we can often touch on them through the lens of your central question.

Not necessarily. While a more specific question can sometimes lead to a more specific answer, that isn’t always what’s needed—especially depending on the kind of clarity you’re seeking. It’s helpful to take a moment before your appointment to reflect on what you’re asking guidance about, and why. But don’t worry about finding the perfect wording—the oracle knows what’s in your heart. We can always clarify your question together when we meet.

Yes, you’re welcome to do a divination reading with another person—especially when your question involves both of you.

When approached with openness and shared intention, these sessions can offer powerful insight into the dynamic between you and support meaningful relational healing. The I Ching can help illuminate what is seeking balance, clarity, or deeper understanding, and offer guidance for how each of you might move in alignment with the greater unfolding. It’s a chance to listen together—to yourselves, to each other, and to the wisdom of the moment.

With the exception of parents asking questions about their young children, I prefer doing readings for people regarding their own situations. If you have a question about another person, I would encourage you to ask yourself why it is that you want to ask a question about this person, i.e. how does this other person’s situation relate to something that may concern you? 

The I Ching offers more than insight—it is a profound tool for healing.

In traditional Chinese medicine, the most influential healing is preventing illness before it takes form. Rather than waiting for symptoms to appear, practitioners listen for subtle imbalance, sometimes beneath our conscious awareness.

This is how divination with the I Ching is so powerful. The oracle reflects subtle misalignment before it hardens into pain and disease—helping us recognize when we are out of rhythm with ourselves, with others, or with the larger movement of life.

Through its guidance, we can come back into alignment with Heaven’s will, also the truth of our highest selves. The I Ching helps us hear our inner knowing, understand how to move with Nature, restore harmony within, and feel more clearly how we are in relationship with everything around us.

For some, the oracle also becomes a way of remembering where we come from. It can reconnect us with ancestral wisdom and living traditions that have guided people for thousands of years.

For those who carry ancestral ties to the culture from which the I Ching emerged, being in relationship with the oracle can also serve as deep ancestral healing—reconnecting with a powerful practice used since the birth of the Yellow River civilization.

Yes, it’s not uncommon to feel called to return to the I Ching for ongoing guidance—especially if you're using it to support your healing journey or a period of transition and feel a deep resonance with its wisdom. The oracle meets you where you are, and each reading offers new insight that reflects your current moment.

The I Ching is a living oracle; the more you reveal to it, the more it reveals to you. Many find that returning to the oracle with evolving questions over time deepens not only their inner knowing but supports in healing and understanding the greater unfolding of life.

There’s no fixed schedule—it depends on your needs and rhythm. Some people return regularly during times of transformation and/or in support of ongoing healing, while others come only when a question clearly arises. Trust your timing. If you're unsure, we can talk about what cadence might support your journey.

Divination with the I Ching and tarot cards are similar in that responses are not definitively yes/no—they invite exploration and often encourage personal growth and intuition. Tarot cards were originally used in Europe as playing cards and got adopted for divination in the last several hundred years, and the I Ching was used for divination from its inception in China in the Zhou dynasty several thousand years ago.

The I Ching has a specific ethos which, in its observation of change through yin-yang, guides us back to making choices in interconnection and oneness, in harmony with Nature, the Dao. If you’re a descendant of the Yellow River, and/or if this ethos otherwise resonates with you, the I Ching’s guidance may very well work well for you.

The I Ching is most often regarded as a cosmological framework that describes the changing patterns of Nature through the principles of yin-yang, forming the foundation of philosophical and religious Daoism. Confucian scholars also adopted the I Ching as a guide for moral cultivation and discerning the proper actions of an upright, ethical person within the context of social harmony. In fact, some parts of the I Ching were added by these scholars and reflect core ideas from Confucian philosophy. Elements of the I Ching have also been incorporated into certain schools of Chinese Buddhism. Meanwhile, divination with the I Ching—and divination more broadly—has played a fundamental role in Chinese folk religion and traditional practices since the beginnings of Chinese civilization.

The I Ching has shamanistic roots, so divination with the oracle implies the Divine and connection with the spiritual realm, but it does not adhere to a specific religious doctrine. It functions as a reflective tool—like a mirror that brings inner clarity—rather than as a prescriptive or dogmatic system. Rooted in the principles of yin-yang and natural balance, it can harmonize with a wide variety of spiritual or religious paths. That said, the oracle is alive and, as a mirror, shows itself in relationship to the needs of the diviner. So if the diviner feels called to convene with spirit guides, goddesses, deities, and mythical beasts abound…
