Dear Cecil & Robert: For the metal cure if you don't have coins, I thought you could also cut out quarter shaped aluminum foil circles and tape them directly to the beam without red paper. Is this correct? Thank you!

Dear Elena,
Yes, this is acceptable:
Either:
1. Cut the aluminum foils into 6 circular discs each without the red paper or
2. Cut the aluminum foils into 6 stars i.e. to `5 pointed star' without the red paper. This option is less advisable as the pointed star is considered `sha qi' to some practitioners.
But both are a `cheap' alternative to the 6 i-ching coins.
Warmest Regards,
Cecil
