A method and device for determining the secondary attributes of a symbol by chance comprising a holder having a partition, relatively short magnets, and an elongated magnet. The relatively short magnets have a smaller length than the elongated magnet. The I-Ching is consulted by placing two relatively short magnets in a random position on a first compartment of the holder and the elongated magnet is retained on a retaining surface in the second compartment of the holder. The sides of each of the relatively short magnets adjacent the elongated magnet and the sides of each of the relatively short magnets adjacent each other form three pairs of interacting magnetic poles. The user assigns a predetermined state to each of the eight magnetic interactions, records the state represented by the magnetic interaction, and repeats these steps until one or more I-Ching hexagrams are constructed.
A method for determining by chance the state for each of a plurality of lines having more than one possible state said plurality of lines together forming an I-Ching symbol comprising the steps of:
