Question 1

What does the I Ching API return?

Accepted Answer

It casts I Ching hexagrams, identifies changing lines and the resulting transformed hexagram, and returns daily guidance, relationship and AI readings as structured JSON in 12 languages.

Question 2

How does the hexagram casting work?

Accepted Answer

You can request a cast and the API returns the primary hexagram, any changing lines, and the secondary hexagram those changes produce, along with the interpretation for each.

Question 3

Are the I Ching texts free of copyright restrictions?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Vedika's I Ching readings use public-domain source text, so you can embed the guidance in commercial products without licensing concerns.

Question 4

Which languages are supported?

Accepted Answer

I Ching readings are available in 12 languages, including 14 Indic languages with native script output.

Question 5

Can I try the I Ching API live?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Every endpoint has a free sandbox you can call without an API key, and this page renders the live reading. Paid plans start at $12 per month.
