Summary: - you can even use 'pocket change' to generate them !
Comment: _____Within the book, it speaks well about the many ways to 'generate' one of the sixteen characters. This is basically neccessary, in order to see what kind of 'ELEMENT' and 'DIRECTION' a certain response is going to go. _____In a natural setting, let's say your outdoors which magic works well... the ancient method of poking marks in the sand and adding up the sum to determine an even or odd number to reach a character. Some folks, perhaps would rather stay in doors during chilly nights all together and just have a small box with a lid, with sand in it as well. The same principle but smaller. _____The one system that seems to work well, is most definately the coin work. Yet keep in mind, that although 'this' and the 'I ching' come from the same type of divination --- they differ from each other 'mathematically' where a character is basically produced by four coins only once... as opposed to flipping three of them twice. _____In reading those little 'buggers' - your often reminded how they look like domino characters... what I usually do with em is to connect the dots, so they look like actual symbols for better interpritation. _____ Finally, keep in mind as well, there's a little handbook which was written in medevil period on how to interprit slight nunances in a shield or square reading. --- it's worth getting.

Summary: A traditional form of divination revived!
Comment: The most complete book published on the lost art of geomancy. Geomancy is one of the oldest forms of divination from the Middle Ages. This book is clearly written and easy to understand with a layout of progressive steps that one can easily follow as a beginner as well as an advanced student. The author has included several charts and diagrams that can be reproduced for your own readings.
The book is divided into two parts: the first part is an introduction to geomancy, how to develop the characters, interpretation and reading of the characters. The in-depth interpretations for each of the sixteen figures are extensive and include: names, image, keyword, basic divinatory meaning, quality, planet, zodiac sign, outer and inner element, anatomy, appearance, character, colors, and what other figures they are complementary to.
The second part part deals with geomancy and its uses in magick. There is a chapter on sigils and talismans, their empowerment, and rituals. Highly recommended for those student of the Craft who are looking to add to their divination skills.
