Xor Rotation Group Index

The rotation of the symbol rings always flips the bit. This operation is defined as follows:

P _X> n = (P >> n) x

That is, after an ordinary rotation, the bottom line of the result is changed.

Period = 4

P _X> n =

Period = 12

P _X> n = Waxing and Waning of the Seasons

P _X> n =

P _X> n =

P _X> n =

P _X> n =

Mondo Secter refers to these groups of hexagrams as "evolutionary cycles" of hexagrams. See pages 61-63 of his book The I Ching Handbook. Here I arrived at them via the formal algebraic description of the traditional seasonal cycle of hexagrams.
