This
is the Way I Roll
This
is a selection of 9 dots in each of the 9 areas of the Bagua Map each
a different colour for each number. In this instance it is a TGC or
1/7/8 Nine star Ki positioned at the centre. All dots are facing
South West in direction.
Lets
us now create aspects for each section of the nine. Each section has
its own numbers plus the number of the usual position of that square.
e.g.
TGC 1/7 is positioned in the north east number 8 square facing south
west. So it is a 1/7/8 but I am putting in the number of the usual
square for that position it is in now, so as 1/7 is in the centre it
now becomes 1/7/5.
The
lines denote the aspects the three numbers in each square create.
Then
you drop a ball in the top and see which way it rolls and into which
of the 8 slots below that they fall because of the aspects shapes
that prohibit its movement. That becomes the way you roll. Now I have
made of these so I don't know where the balls might fall for me.
There is a name for this distribution of the balls which I don’t
actually know but I thought it interesting that there are 108
variations on this theme, this one is mine.
You can see from the image below that a ball coming in from the left and another from the right might end up landing in 3 which number 1 creates and 6 which supports number 1 so that would be a pleasant landing. Of course they can bounce off other balls and shapes and create all manner of things.
Have fun working yours out x

The bean machine, also known as the quincunx , is a device invented by Sir Francis Galton[1] to demonstrate the central limit theorem, in particular that the normal distribution is approximate to the binomial distribution.
The machine consists of a vertical board with interleaved rows of pins. Balls are dropped from the top, and bounce left and right as they hit the pins. Eventually, they are collected into one-ball-wide bins at the bottom. The height of ball columns in the bins approximates a bell curve.
Overlaying Pascal's triangle onto the pins shows the number of different paths that can be taken to get to each bin.
Of course for us the aspect patterns and therefore the shapes change when the numbers at the centre change the whole 9 squares so no two will be the same.
