1. Remember to stay focused on your dilemma or subject or question when casting.

2. Hold the lines loosely in your hands, shake them briefly, and then toss them, all the while contemplating your query. The line you record is determined by assigning numerical values to heads and tails, then adding the total.

3. Collect the lines and toss another n times, recording the numerical values and the corresponding line each time, building your n+1-line hexagram from the bottom up.
