Hi,

Yes, I use geomancy regularly. I find it a clear system of divination, 
with the added advantage that it is easy to learn by heart and you can 
use it without any special attributes. To determine my sixteem start-
values, I draw a 4 by 4 grid on paper, put a pen in the middle and with 
eyes closed randomly scratch around that middle point. Than I count the 
number of crossings in every square of the grid. This works well, and 
there's almost always pen and paper at hand. As to assigning the 
tetragrams to the houses, I put the mothers in houses 1, 4, 7 and 10, the 
daughters in 2, 5, 8 and 11 and the cousins in 3, 6, 9 and 12.
Have you been using geomancy for long now? It seems very hard to find 
anyone on the net who uses geomancy, it's not very popular. But then 
again it's not very well known...

Bye,
Edwin
