The second row features Hexagram 31 at the right read leftward to reach Hexagram 64. In this linear version (above), Hexagram 1 is in the upper right of first row. This “condensed view” (as it is called by Larry Schulz) has been used to show how the I Ching’s uneven division into Part One (Hexagrams 1-30) and Part Two (Hexagrams 31-64) can be reconciled into eighteen “seats” each.
The eight symmetrical hexagrams each have their own figure.
Received Order “condensed view” (linear)-The hexagrams in the traditional order, but with invertible hexagrams sharing one figure with its pair (e.g., Hexagrams 3 & 4). (Note in the circular chart, a few situations in which two hexagrams are jammed into one position also, the axes drawn in the middle do not appear to line up or divide the order in any significant way.) The circular format (left) reads from “twelve o’clock” clockwise. The linear format (above) reads from left to right. However, beyond the pairs, the logic behind the hexagram order is a mystery. In it, each hexagram is paired with its inverse, except in eight cases where the hexagram is symmetrical those are paired with their opposites. Traditional Hexagram Order - The “King Wen” or “received order” of the I Ching hexagrams, in use for at least 2300 years, and used in most I Ching books.
