This page groups hexagram lines by whether each one is a broken yin line or a solid yang line. Wikipedia notes the hexagrams have "often acquired cosmological significance and been paralleled with many other traditional names for the processes of change such as yin and yang and Wuxing." Browsing by yin-yang lets a visitor find every line sharing the same polarity.
