Start with paragraph 5.
Why this work matters
That matters because it demonstrates the numogram's portability across symbolic systems and explains why later experimenters keep returning to it.
Then and now
Why this mattered then
On 11 July 2012, Vauung opened a provisional comment-space because an "oddity threshold" had been crossed [c10][c3]. The thread turned Yi Jing hexagrams into routes through the Hex circuit [c3]. Northanger and MrLitch then tested line order, binary notation, and zone assignments in public [c0][c2]. That mattered in the post-CCRU aftermath because numogrammatics shifted from lore to demonstrable procedure, where "systematic coherence ultimately trumps tradition" [c6].
Why it matters now
July 2012 records the numogram as a live procedure, not a settled emblem [c1]. The dispute over whether "Hexagram 23 = 000001" turns on binary sequence [c10]. One line states the rule without ornament: "Compliance with numerical consistency overrides all other considerations" [c8]. That bears on the present because Urbanomic now recirculates the numogram as "numerical methodology," alongside CCRU conceptwear and the return of CCRU Writings 1997-2003 [https://www.urbanomic.com/event/doin-it-for-the-gram/][https://www.urbanomic.com/event/urbanomic-conceptwear-ts/][https://www.urbanomic.com/book/ccru-writings-1997-2003/].
How to read this
For Numogramming the Yi Jing Vauung's Lair, follow the mapping procedure step by step instead of leaping to the metaphysical implications too early.
For Numogramming the Yi Jing Vauung's Lair, read it alongside the zone entries. The page is strongest when the abstract map is linked back to individual numerical traits.
Argument map
Primary claim
The page matters because it shows numogramming as a live practice rather than a closed doctrine. Divinatory pattern and decimal routing are made to interlock.
The work's mechanism
Mapping is the mechanism. Hexagram values, line structures, and digital reductions are translated into zone positions and currents.
What this work claims
That matters because it demonstrates the numogram's portability across symbolic systems and explains why later experimenters keep returning to it.
Style and mode
Essay / text work
Numogramming the Yi Jing Vauung's Lair works best when read as compressed scene-writing: argument, terminology, and style arrive together rather than in separate academic stages.
Publication context
Vauung’s Yi Jing diagramming sits inside the CCRU numogram complex later described by Urbanomic as part of the recovery of the Numogram and Lemurian time-sorcery [w4]. Its procedure, routing hexagrams through numerical passages, matches later accounts of the numogram as a constructed methodology with occult and diagrammatic functions, rather than a literary ornament [w5].

Definition · paragraph 5
The hexagram is the linear model of a circuit — or double circuit (1,2,4 … 8,7,5), twin trigrams — which comprehends time even as it excludes the outer zones (0,3,6,9) as a hyper-temporal triadic Abomenon. (The tacit assimilation of zero to trinity is itself a substantial occult discovery.) Thus, the Yi Jing clearly demonstrates that the Chaotic Xenodemons do not participate in time.

change and then relate those to the geomantic figures for each trigram, giving 2 geomantic figures for each trigtram and 4 for every hexagram(of course that’s unnecessary cluster fucking and it wouldn’t help, but it might be fun) Sorry, I’m no expert on the Yi-Jing, in fact my initial reasons for pestering northanger was that I wanted to learn it through it’s interaction with the numogram. Reply vauung says: 2012/07/16 at 09:14 That’s really helpful.
