Since 2013, I have been developing, testing, refining and living the Nourishing Destiny Model. Through thousands of observations, consultations, workshops and real-life applications, it has continued to evolve.

At its core the ND Model integrates the wisdom of Nine Star Ki and the Yijing, revealing the invisible patterns that shape our lives, decisions, challenges and potential.

But just like the Yijing states: everything is in constant motion. Things change.

Over the last years I have been deep diving into the system of Wenwanggua and now we’ve starters integrating this model into the ND model.

What we are discovering is simply mind-blowing.

Many students and clients can already testify to the value of this work. So many more can not even imagine what is possible.

It’s been an incredible journey so far. And somehow it feels as if the most exciting times are still ahead of us. When the world finds out what we did….

Have you ever felt completely lost? As if nothing makes sense anymore?

That may not be a bad sign at all.

Sometimes confusion is simply a sign that you're growing. Sometimes things need to fall apart.

* The beliefs that gave you certainty.
* The goals you thought truly mattered.
* The career that once seemed obvious.

And that's exactly where doubt appears - when the ground beneath you starts to shift.

Personal growth isn't really about finding more certainty. It's about remaining grounded in your own power while certainty disappears.

As Eckhart Tolle beautifully puts it:
"The new is already here. The old is simply making a lot of noise as it dies."

Can you listen to what is emerging behind that noise, in the silence?

A common mistake in Yijing practice:
People interpret every trigram separately.

But trigrams are not isolated symbols. At least not in the context of the hexagram. They work together to create one living image.

Fire above Mountain.
Wind above Thunder.
Lake above Heaven.

These are not abstract concepts. They are scenes. Movements. Dynamics.

The moment you stop analyzing the trigrams separately and start seeing the image they create together, the hexagram comes alive. That is where real interpretation begins.

Can you imagine there are still people out there that think you need the book to read the Yijing?

Even worse: they engage in never ending debates about which translation is best, but still can’t figure out themselves what a hexagram actually tells them.

If you’re one of them.

I got a place for you:

One of the biggest misunderstandings in modern Yijing practice:
People think the relating hexagram is “the future.”

But that’s not what early Chinese sources suggest something.
The movement between hexagrams works both ways.

Not:
A → B
But:
A ↔ B

The two hexagrams are connected through movement and relationship. The ancient diviners often treated them as two sides of the same coin.

That means the relating hexagram is not just “what comes next.” It also helps explain the present situation itself. That opens a much deeper way of reading the Yi.

Most people consult the Yijing like this:
Throw the coins.
Open the book.
Start reading.

But the original answer of the Yi is not a text.
It is a hexagram.That is the actual answer you receive.

The ancient Chinese already worked with the trigrams and hexagrams long before the Yi became a “book to read.”
The hexagram itself carries the answer you are looking for

Western Yijing culture became obsessed with reading.
Daoist Yijing culture became obsessed with structure.

That difference changes everything.

One asks:
“What does the text say?”

The other asks:
“What is the hexagram doing?”

That’s the question we ask at the Academy

Most people think the Yijing is a book.
Ancient China didn’t.

When you cast the Yi, the first thing you receive is not text.
You receive a hexagram.

Six lines.
Broken or unbroken.

The text came later.
For more than 2000 years Daoists worked with the structure itself:
• trigrams
• numbers
• wuxing
• calendar cycles
without reading the text at all.

The West inherited mostly the Confucian version of the Yijing.
But that is only one side of the story.

The biggest misunderstanding about the Yijing?
That the answer is hidden in the text.

The answer is already present in the hexagram itself.
Ancient practitioners knew this.

That is why systems like Wenwang Gua and Meihua Yishu exist:
methods that barely use the text at all.

The hexagram IS the oracle.

This is what we study at the Nourishing Destiny Academy - not the text but the oracle itself.
