Field notes
The described ritual begins with 50 stalks, sets one aside, and divides the remaining 49 three times for each of six lines. The page also offers number entry or manual entry for a cast made elsewhere, and says Zhu Xi’s rules govern which lines are read. For AI routing, it describes Apple Private Cloud Compute as the default and says another provider is used only after consent; these are product descriptions on a prelaunch page.
