Jung's 3 and 5 are meaningless.
Wilhelm 'supernumaries' and number conversions must be very confusing to anyone new to yarrow.
So to clarify :
Split the 49 with right hand to get Left Pile and Right Pile.Take one stalk from RP and put between lower fingers of left hand.
Count off LP by fours and put remainders 4 or less between middle fingers of left hand.
Count off RP by fours and put remainders of 4 or less between upper fingers of left hand.
Put the 5 or 9 remainders aside and start again with 44 or 40 stalks to get remainders 4 or 8.
Put these 4 or 8 aside and start again with 40 or 36 or 32 stalks to get remainders 4 or 8.
Add all the remainders to get the first line OR
Just count the bundles of 4 left over at the end of every third operation to get the lines 6, 7, 8, 9 = moving yin, static yang, static yin, moving yang.
Start again with 49 to get the second line.And so on upwards to the 6th line.
Pretty soon you will be able to do it eyes shut without thinking.It becomes a motor memory.In a short time you will become effortlessly familiar with the remainders :
544 ( =13 + bundles 9x4 = 49)
548,584,944, (=17 + bundles 8x4 = 49),
948, 984, 588, ( =21 + bundles 7x4 = 49),
988. ( = 25 + bundles 6x4 = 49).
You can get coin odds if you prefer them by splitting 48 stalks instead of 49.The bundles at the end of every third operation are the same, 6,7,8,9. And the remainders will be all 4 and 8.
You dont have to perform the traditional rituals associated with yarrow, but its a good idea to know them.
