A digital instrument for symbolic contemplation

Every state has its doors.

A ritual cast sets you down in one state of an ancient symbolic tradition — a hexagram, a rung of the planetary ladder, a station on the Tree of Life. You receive the classical reading, and a view the classical texts never had: every neighbouring state you could step into, seen at once.

An instrument for contemplation, not prophecy. No claims about fate, health, finances, or law. Read the book

Six Doors · 六门Sixty-four hexagrams, six doors each

I Ching

Six Doors六门

Sixty-four hexagrams, each a single line-change away from six neighbours. Cast by three coins or by yarrow stalks, land on one hexagram, and see all six doors of your moment at once.

Hermeticism

Septem Portae七重门

Seven planetary heavens in the old Chaldean order, each either still binding or already refined. Every cast places you on the ladder between matter and the Ogdoad — and ascent and descent are both the great work.

Kabbalah

Lamed-Bet三十二径

On the Tree of Life, not every station opens the same number of ways: Malkuth has three doors, Tiferet eight. Where you stand determines how you can move — and that is the teaching.

Western esoteric

Tarot塔罗

Seventy-eight cards, drawn three at a time without replacement — past, present, future, each upright or reversed. The future position is read as tendency, never as forecast.

How it works

  1. 1

    Ask

    Bring a question — or none. A moment of stillness before the cast, if you wish.

  2. 2

    Cast

    Coins or lots. The outcome is sealed before your first toss — and your own touch takes part in it.

  3. 3

    See every door

    The traditional reading — primary state, changes, arrival — beside a view of the whole neighbourhood: every single-step transition available from where you stand.

  4. 4

    Reflect

    An AI reading anchored to the structural facts of this cast — never generic, never a prophecy — ending in one actionable reflection.
