THE WENBU WAY

About Wenbu

Free, transparent tools for BaZi, I Ching, tarot and Zi Wei, built to make cultural reflection accessible without turning symbols into verdicts.

Ask thoughtfully. Act with care.

Wenbu, pronounced wen-boo, comes from the Chinese phrase 问卜: to ask an oracle. We want old symbolic languages to be accessible in modern life, with their methods and limits kept visible.

Built by Gene Dai, Wenbu offers four tools and an exportable local journal. You can begin without a name or an account.

What matters to us

Calculations should be reproducible. Interpretations should be labeled. Uncertainty should remain visible. We do not invent credentials, testimonials or accuracy rates, or use frightening claims to push purchases.

The content and code are AI-assisted; interpretive material has not been certified by a professional practitioner. The engines use public libraries and explicit conventions. When something is wrong, the response is to fix the calculation, source or wording.

Help improve the tools

Source code and issue reporting are on GitHub. A useful report includes steps, settings and a specific discrepancy. Use synthetic examples and do not post birth details, private questions or credentials.
