The Daughters
Once the four Mothers have been generated, the Geomancer must determine the
four Daughters. The Abacus Worksheef5 7 provides the easiest method for generating
these figures. Transfer the first Mother into the vertical column labeled M1 on the
Abacus worksheet. The four divisions of the column are for the separation of the
Head, Neck, Body and Feet. The second Mother is placed in column M2, while
Mothers 3 and 4 fall respectively into columns M3 and M4.
The first Daughter (01) is formed fromthe Heads of all the Mothers from 1
to 4. placed on top of one another:
Heads ofMothers 4 3 2 1

This is the first Daughter, or figure number 5.
Do the same with the Necks of the Mothers:
Necks ofMothers 4 3 2 1 ••
• • •• •• = •• ••
This is the second Daughter, or figure number 6.
Do the same with the Bodies of the Mothers:
Bodies ofMothers 4 3 2 1

This is the third Daughter, or figure number 7.
