Read here:

Irrelevant reply, as the person asked about the Chinese I-Ching, not the Norse Runes. Just because he used the word "runes" doesn't mean he is asking about them.

Don't mean any offense, but I often see people link a page from ToZ in a reply to a question about something entirely different and unrelated to it. This is one example.

The hexagrams do have names, but I'm not sure if vibrating them has any power. Chinese pronunciation is much more complex so you have to learn how to pronounce them first.

Runes can be used in various ways, including divination, and other things explained in ToZ.

Runes represent the power of the gods. Why use other different, and unsafe, forms? To achieve the same purpose?

Because the poster, presumably Chinese or East Asian, feels a cultural connection to his own script and not Norse runes. How are they unsafe?
