The text highlights two versions of the major hexagrams, contrasting an initial hidden dragon state with a later moment when action can arise naturally. It also provides a structured system for oracles, including methods for using yarrow-sticks and coin divination, and includes a reference chart followed by the hexagram-by-hexagram
