Yi Ask is a private, local-first reflection tool inspired by Meihua Yishu and the I Ching. It is intended for reflection, not prediction or professional advice.
What is Yi Ask?
A structured reflection tool that combines one question, two trigrams, and the current China branch-hour.
Is it fortune-telling or prediction?
No. It offers symbolic prompts, not prophecy, certainty, diagnosis, or professional advice.
How does a reading work?
Ask one question, press Stop twice to choose the upper and lower trigrams, then compare the primary and changed hexagrams.
Should I repeat the same question?
Usually no. Ask once, reflect, and return only when the real situation has materially changed.
Can it give a definite yes or no?
It can suggest directions such as begin, test, wait, or protect your options, but it cannot guarantee an outcome.
Do I need an account?
No. Email verification is optional and helps restore credits and selected reading history across devices.
Is my question sent to the server?
Anonymous reading content stays on your device. Saved history is synced only after you verify an email and choose to save it.
What happens when I share?
The question and result are carried in the link fragment. Anyone with the complete link can view it, so avoid sensitive information.
Can I use it for high-stakes decisions?
No. Do not use Yi Ask for medical, legal, financial, gambling, self-harm, or emergency decisions.
Which languages are supported?
English, Simplified Chinese, Spanish, French, Portuguese, Indonesian, Bengali, Hindi, Arabic, and Urdu.
