The book comes with a large fold-out containing a wheel sectioned into 64 parts for the 64 hexagrams it uses with numbered questions inside the circle, forming a square. The beginning sections instructs the user to pick a question and choose a figure at random while concentrating on it. Once a figure is chosen, a chart is consulted which reveals the page to turn to in order to find the answer. The number of the answer on the page is the same as the number of the figure chosen. | The book comes with a large fold-out containing a wheel sectioned into 64 parts for the 64 hexagrams it uses with numbered questions inside the circle, forming a [[magic square|square]].

A [[Cartomancy|cartomantic]] method is also given, instructing the user to make a deck of 64 index cards bearing the hexagrams and, while thinking about the question, the user is then to pick a card from the shuffled deck at random. The rest functions the same way. | A [[Cartomancy|cartomantic]] method is also given, instructing the user to make a deck of 64 index cards bearing the hexagrams and, while thinking about the question, the user is then to pick a card from the shuffled deck at random.
