Have You Ever Consulted the I Ching?
An Ancient Chinese Text is Reborn Online at iFate.com
05.28.2009 – The ancient Chinese oracle known as the I Ching, or “Book of Changes” is one of the most famous and enduring texts in history and originated in China in approximately 2800 BC. The book centers around 64 different symbols known as “hexagrams” — each with a specific meaning.
In modern China, the I Ching is extremely popular as a form of psychic divination, and as a framework for self-analysis and personal insight. Users typically ask a question of the I Ching Oracle, and then flip 3 coins to construct one of the 64 hexagrams. By interpreting the resulting hexagram, one’s questions are answered — and insight into the question itself can be gained.
Now iFate.com, an extremely popular Internet destination for web-based divination and psychic tools — has launched a 100% free virtual “I Ching” which allows novices and experts alike to consult this ancient source of wisdom and insight.
iFate.com’s I Ching experts have created an easy to read, modern translation of the ancient text, which doesn’t take a Chinese scholar, or gifted psychic to understand.
Jennifer Katz, a spokeswoman for iFate.com says, “For such an ancient book, the I Ching is already amazingly modern in many ways. When you read the texts you suddenly realize that the issues we have today are remarkably similar to the issues people were having thousands of years ago in ancient China. For every generation, the I Ching seems equally important. Today, people are asking questions about love, money and more modern questions about the stock market, or the economy.”
While the individual passages within the “Book of Changes” are quite brief, the philosophical interpretation of these passages can take a lifetime to appreciate. Most users are stunned by the amazing accuracy of the responses, and often profoundly moved by the insight the I Ching can offer to the most confounding of questions. Every year, more and more western psychics incorporate I Ching readings into their work.
If you’ve never experienced the wonder of one of mankind’s most ancient oracle’s, stop by iFate.com today with your toughest life-question and consult the I Ching.

Hundreds of Thousands Learn Tarot Cards Online
The rise of free online tarot cards has sparked a wave of self-reading and self-analysis
05.27.2009 – Tarot cards have long been an esoteric form of self-analysis and fortune-telling (and for some perhaps: a “parlor trick”). Deeply mysterious and intimidatingly complex, Tarot has long been an art form which requires patience and dedication to master.
Now, free tarot reading websites are taking the historically popular past-time to entirely new levels of popularity. Free tarot sites like iFate.com re-create the tarot experience directly in the web browser and make the practice extremely easy and accessible with entertaining graphics, animation and 1000′s of pages of help text.
Detailed interpretations of the tarot, written by tarot-masters, are provided alongside the readings — allowing even novice visitors to read the meaning of the cards.
Tarot cards do not belong to any particular religion or culture. Instead, they tend to incorporate ideas and philosophies from a wide range of cultures. There are conceptual and graphical references to ancient Egypt, Jewish mysticism, New Testament Christianity, and Asian philosophies.
Jennifer Katz, a spokeswoman for the extremely popular tarot website iFate.com believes it is this blend of spirituality which is responsible for tarot’s 21st century comeback.
“People don’t want to subscribe to any particular religion right now. We’re a global world, and we’re all very aware that there are different cultures and philosophies out there. People are looking for a more global form of spirituality and insight. People are looking for answers. They’re looking for something they can practice on their own without an institution. Tarot cards are giving people a lot of what they’re looking for right now.”, says Katz from iFate.com’s New York offices.
iFate.com’s success has grown rapidly. The site boasts millions of pageviews per month and attracts visitors from all over the world.
