The I Ching book consist of 64 hexagrams.
A hexagram is a figure composed of six stacked horizontal lines (爻 yáo), where each line is either Yang (an unbroken, or solid line), or Yin (broken, an open line with a gap in the center).
The hexagram lines are traditionally counted from the bottom up, so the lowest line is considered line 1 while the top line is line 6.
