Are the yarrow stalks better than the coins?

Recommended Posts

The yarrow stalk method of throwing the I Ching has different probabilities for the hexagrams than the coin method. This leads to the following two different but nevertheless related questions:

 

1. Are the results of using the yarrow-method for consulting the I Ching better than the results of using the coin-method?

 

2. Do the hexagrams found by using the yarrow-method give a generally better representation of reality than the hexagrams found by using the coin-method?

From Da Liu's I Ching Coin Prediction "Today there are people who believe the use of coins to be less formal or spiritual than the use of yarrow stalks. This is not the case; there is a spirituality connected with both the coins themselves and the method of their use" (8).
