First, the concept of "gossip"

The so-called divination is actually a means for the working people of Han nationality in ancient China to know the seasons and record the labor laws by measuring the position of the sun.

The word "Bu" on the right side of the hexagram is pictographic, indicating that the pole stands on the ground and the point on the right is the shadow of the sun. The word "Gui" to the left of the word "Gua" is a ruler used to measure the length and position of the shadow.

Through long-term measurement, the working people of the ancient Han nationality mastered various seasonal laws of spring ploughing and autumn harvest.

The so-called gossip should be a record of the measurement results in all directions of the earth.

Second, the origin of gossip

There are three main theories about the origin of gossip:

1, Fuxi painted eight diagrams in Guatai Mountain, and later there were Fuxi painting tables in Tianshui, Gansu and Henan. Guatai Mountain, also known as Guatai, is said to be the place where Fu began to draw gossip when observing astronomy and geography. Located at the northern end of Sanyang in western Sichuan, it now governs Weinan Town in Maiji District. Of course, many modern scholars do not believe that future generations entrusted some inventions to ancient celebrities; In addition, it belongs to the Qingdun site in Hai 'an County, eastern Jiangsu Province in the late Neolithic period, and 1979 unearthed eight hexagrams. In the ancient environment with sparse population, numerous tribes and backward communication tools, it takes a long process for culture to spread to distant eastern Jiangsu.

2. Zhang's divination theory evolved into eight diagrams in multiple steps: his article "A Trial Interpretation of the Yi Gua in the Early Zhou Dynasty" studied a number of digital divination unearthed in the 20th century, and thought that there were a large number of divination (digital divination) at first, and then it was simplified into several divination numbers, and then it was simplified from these specific values to this theory and some ancient books (represented by one or six numbers in the Warring States period).

3. Liu Linying's astronomical hexagrams evolved into the Eight Diagrams Theory: His "A New Solution to the Mystery of the Origin of the Book of Changes" expounded the six-hexagram system theory and thought that hexagrams originated from the prediction activities of astronomers' measuring tools. The original hexagram was a six-hexagram system, without divination and deviation, and later evolved into a gossip system. The important evidence is that the six-hexagram system (such as Yin San Sanyang) is the backbone theory of traditional Chinese medicine, which cannot be explained by gossip, but the moon divination in the six-hexagram system exists ". Later, the paper "A Textual Research on the Use of Six Images in Digital divination in Shang and Zhou Dynasties" denied that Yi divination originated from divination theory, and demonstrated that the four images divination method before the Eastern Zhou Dynasty was based on six images. The complicated divination figures are only the figures of six images and their changes, while the six images of Yin and Yang are essentially

These three statements all have strong argument power, and there are many viewpoints. For example, Liu Jue put forward Guiying theory in 1946, arguing that gossip originated from the sun shadow recorded by Tugui; Feng Youlan believes that gossip comes from imitating the tortoise omen of divination and is a standardized "omen". Similarly, Qu Wanli's Yi Gua comes from the theory of tortoise divination; Li believes that the ancients used knotted ropes to record divination figures, which later evolved into gossip. The source of this statement is speculation about the name of Basso, an ancient book. Ningsheng Wang's gossip originated from Lei Fuzi of Yi nationality. Some guesses are completely unfounded. Comparatively speaking, Huang Yilu believes that Yi Gua originated from Zhuang culture in Ji Bu, and is a descendant of the people of the Yue Dynasty, although there are several key links.

Third, the value of "gossip"

Eight trigrams is the basic philosophical concept of the ancient nationalities in China, which can be summed up in eight words: "Doing things for people is good luck". This is an ancient theory of yin and yang. The so-called eight diagrams were painted by Tai Hao's surname Fuxi. Eight diagrams are actually the earliest characters and symbols of writing. Gossip represents Yi-ology culture and permeates all fields of East Asian culture. According to the folklore of the Han nationality, gossip originated from Fuxi, the head of the Three Emperors and Five Emperors, and Fuxi Xishi began to draw gossip in Tiantai Mountain, Tianshui. Gossip represents the yin and yang system of things' own changes, "one" represents yang, and "-"represents yin. Three such symbols are combined in parallel into eight different forms according to the changes of yin and yang in nature, which is called gossip. Don't be too mysterious about gossip. It is a tool to interpret the relationship between various things in the world's time and space, just like the yin-yang and five elements in Chinese culture. Each six-pointed star represents something. Dry represents the sky, Kun represents the earth, Xun represents the wind, earthquake represents the thunder, ridge represents the water, far represents the fire, gen represents the mountain, and right represents the ze. Gossip is like eight infinite invisible big pockets, which put everything in the universe. Eight trigrams are matched with each other to become sixty-four hexagrams, which are used to symbolize various natural phenomena and personnel phenomena. Based on all kinds of people and things in today's society. The eight diagrams in traditional Chinese medicine refer to the eight parts around the palm.
