What is the attribute of the word "zi" in the five elements?

Kim, look at the following literature.

Dental pronunciation belongs to the golden pinyin of five elements: Z, C, S, zh, ch, sh, R.

First, the five-element method of glyph

The so-called shape is shape, which refers to the physical composition of words. Many Chinese characters contain wood, fire, earth, gold and water, which can be directly seen. For example:

Wood: Ben, Pu, Shu, Ji, Bridge, Ficus, Forest, Barrel, etc.

Fire: energy, decay, inflammation, torch, standard, light, etc.

Earth: Earth, hard, Kun, Tan, Pei, Zeng, etc.

Gold: sword, steel, buttons, copper, tin, etc.

Water: spring, ice, sink, river, river, school, pottery, etc.

This is the oldest, most reliable and most widely accepted method for dividing the five elements of Chinese characters. The principle stems from the pictographic characteristics of Chinese characters, but the biggest drawback is that many Chinese characters do not include the five radicals of wood, fire, earth, gold and water, so it is difficult to clearly divide the five elements.

Second, the meaning of the five elements

The so-called word meaning is the meaning of a word. Many Chinese characters can determine the five elements from the word meaning, and Chinese characters are ideographic characters. Judging from the word-forming methods of Chinese characters, whether pictographic, ideographic, ideographic or pictophonetic, their glyphs are closely related to the meaning of words, especially the radicals of Chinese characters, which are actually symbols expressing meaning. Therefore, through the radicals of Chinese characters, we can find out the five elements of their meanings more simply and accurately. For example:

Art, fragrance and Chinese can be classified as wood.

Light, brilliance and brilliance are classified as fire.

Mountains, rocks, peaks, etc. Be classified as soil.

Liu, Lie and Li are classified as gold.

Fresh, thunder, paper, expenses, etc. Be classified as water.

By dividing the radicals of Chinese characters into five elements, the meanings of most Chinese characters can be accurately divided into five elements. However, due to the complexity of Chinese characters, although there are radicals representing some five elements, the meaning of words has changed greatly through "borrowing notes", and the five elements must be divided according to new meanings. However, some words without radicals are the same as those with radicals but have great changes in meaning, which should be divided according to the situation.

In the theory of five elements, it is generally believed that there are five kinds of behaviors of charity; People who are civilized and polite and give off heat and light will act like fire; Honest and tolerant people have five behaviors; All intelligent and active people act like water; Those who are brave and hard in texture pay five acts of gold. The following points should be paid attention to when dividing the five elements of Chinese characters according to the method of meaning and five elements:

1. In principle, all words or radicals involving the Five Elements Theory should be divided into five elements according to the Five Elements Theory.

If benevolence is wood, blood is fire, dragon is earth, Chen is earth, north is water, black is water, mouse is water, etc.

2. Each polysemous word is divided into five elements according to the meaning chosen when naming.

Such as gold, if the meaning of the word is a tool for cutting things, the five elements of the word should be classified as gold, and if it is a unit of measurement, the five elements of the word should be classified as water.

3, where there is a big difference between ancient meaning and modern meaning, divide its five elements according to modern meaning.

If handsome, it means shawl in ancient times, and the five elements should be wood. Now under the guise of being a general, the five elements should be water.

4. If there is a contradiction between the glyph and the five elements of the word meaning, the five elements shall be divided according to the word meaning.

For example, the radical of the word "new" comes from "gold" and also has "wood" parts. In ancient times, it meant logging, so the five elements should be gold. But now the word "new" mainly means something new, which corresponds to the old, so the five elements should be classified as weak five elements.

5. For words with double radicals and five elements, the five elements are divided by doctrine and doctrine when naming.

If you smell it, the "door" on the side generally indicates a certain range, the five elements should be "earth" and the five elements of "ear" should be water. Because the sense of smell is mainly hearing, the five elements of smell should be divided into water. Another example is Mu, which has two parts: "residence" and "wood". Because the meaning of wood is mainly related to washing, the five elements of wood should be divided into water.

The five elements method of word meaning is actually an extension of the five elements method of glyph. They are homologous and divergent, but in the end they achieve the same goal by different routes. The five-element method of meaning is also the five-element division method that can best reflect the level of naming people. Because of the large number and complex structure of Chinese characters, the word is often polysemous. To correctly divide its five-element attribute according to its meaning, judges need to have profound knowledge of Chinese studies, especially philology.

Third, the five elements of phonology

In name phonology, the most complicated thing is the definition of five elements. The theory of five elements defines sound as five elements, which plays a role in tonifying diseases and medicines in naming. As we know, the oldest culture in China divides everything in the world into five elements, namely, gold, wood, water, fire and earth, and because of the division of Yin and Yang, they are collectively called "Yin and Yang and Five Elements". The theory of five elements and the theory of "Yin-Yang and Eight Diagrams" refer to each other and complement each other. * * * together constitute the most basic structure of ancient metaphysics in China. The so-called five-tone classification standard of the ancients refers to the five tones of Gong, Shang, Jiao, Qian and Yu, and phonologically refers to laryngeal sound, tongue sound, dental sound, dental sound and lip sound. There are many contradictions in ancient books about the corresponding relationship between five tones and five elements, and today people are unable to agree. The biggest possibility is the difference between ancient and modern pronunciation and today's dialect. Because of the variability of pronunciation, it is difficult to fix the five elements of pronunciation. In fact, the five elements of pronunciation should be pronounced from the throat, tongue, teeth, teeth and lips, so there is no need to subdivide the five tones (Gong, Shang, Jiao, Qian and Yu, there are many definitions in ancient books, which are contradictory in different times and difficult to understand at present). We only need to know the five elements of throat, tongue, teeth and lips. In other words, as long as the definition of the five elements of the pronunciation organs is clear, the trouble of defining the five elements with five tones can be saved and the pronunciation can be directly divided into five elements. According to the theory of traditional Chinese medicine, soil governs muscles, fire governs blood vessels, wood governs qi, and gold governs bones, teeth and water. Therefore, compared with the five internal organs, soil governs the spleen and stomach, fire governs the heart, wood governs the liver, gold governs the heart, and water governs the kidney. For the mouth, it's a little more complicated. First of all, it must be clear that lips are muscle tissue, so lips must belong to the land of five elements; In addition, it should be clear that teeth belong to five elements of gold. However, the ancients separated "tooth" from "tooth". "tooth" specifically refers to incisors and fangs, and "tooth" specifically refers to bicuspids and molars, so the ancients had the distinction between "tooth sound" and "tooth sound" in pronunciation. However, what the ancients said was not the sound made by the molars, but that there was relatively more air flow through the molars. If the airflow passes through the molar part more, the mouth must open its cheeks and move out some space, which depends on the strength of "tendons", so "tooth sound" belongs to the wood of five elements; Neijing says that "the heart governs the tongue", and Lingshu pulse degree says: "The heart and qi communicate with the tongue, and the heart can know five flavors". Because the heart governs the fire, the tongue belongs to the fire of the five elements. The throat is in the back and lower part of the mouth, and the water is afraid of dryness, so the throat belongs to the water of five elements. See the table below for details:

Lip sounds belong to the local five-element pinyin: b, p, m, f and w.

Tongue sounds belong to the fire pinyin of five elements: D, T, N and L.

Tooth sounds belong to the five elements of wood pinyin: j, q, x and y.

Dental pronunciation belongs to the golden pinyin of five elements: Z, C, S, zh, ch, sh, R.

Laryngeal sounds belong to the five elements of water pinyin: G, K and H.

The five tones belong to the five elements, which is also proved by the classics in the theory of Chinese medicine guidance (qigong). The orthodox Taoist temple says, "The word' mow' governs the lung, and the lung is connected with the five internal organs. When you have wind, your nose is blocked. If you have a disease, you can spit it out for treatment. Oh, words, heart, heart and tongue are connected, heart is hot and tongue is dry, and disease is treated by vomiting. Shout words, shout spleen, spleen is connected with lips, spleen is hot, that is, lips are burnt. If you have a disease, you can treat it by exhaling. Hush word, hush governs the liver, and the liver is connected with the eye. On intense liver fire and red eyes, if there is a disease, it is treated by asking for help and vomiting. Laugh at the word, laugh at the triple energizer, and spit it out if you are sick. " The above is the "six-character formula" in Qigong, which is a method of self-cultivation by exhaling and vocalizing. Although its method is not so simple, its remarkable feature is the use of pronunciation.

But don't be overly superstitious about the five elements of phonetic information. Compared with word meaning, the most important phonetic information is homophonic content. * * * The meaning of the five elements is second only to word meaning and glyph.

Four, mathematics five elements method

The so-called mathematics is the number of strokes of a word, the mantissa is 1 and 2, and the attribute is wood; If the mantissa of each number is 3 or 4, the attribute is fire; If the mantissa of each number is 5 or 6, the attribute is soil; If the mantissa of each number is 7 or 8, the attribute is gold; If the mantissa of each number is 9 or 0, then the property is water. There are two points to pay attention to when using the mathematical five-element method:

(1) The number of strokes of Chinese characters should be calculated in traditional Chinese characters.

(2) Some special radicals are calculated according to the prescribed strokes.

(1) Four drops of water make four paintings. Such as: clear, clean, etc. ; (2) Number of four paintings by hand. Such as picking, dialing, etc. (3) The "moon" counts as six paintings beside the meat. Such as clothing, fat, pulse, etc. (4) "Damn" is six paintings. Such as English, Apple, Rong, etc. (5) "Gang" counts as seven paintings. Such as stretching, striding, fast, passing, etc. ; (6) Left "Lu" is eight paintings, including Yang, Yin, Chen and Lu. (7) The right "30" counts as seven paintings, such as Yi, Deng and Kuang. (8) "Wang" is considered as five paintings, such as Wan, Po, Mei and Rose. (9) Water (indication), which is indicated in the Five Plans; (10) autumn (clothes), with clothes as six paintings; (1 1) "Zi" is four paintings. Such as virtue, fierceness and independence. (12) You (the heart), standing beside the heart, take the heart as the four paintings; (13) The words "one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine and ten" in the name should be 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 and1respectively.

Mathematical reasoning and the method of five elements originated from the "five-grid anatomy" (also known as "the study of Qi Jian's surname") introduced from Japan in the 9th century. This is the most criticized method of dividing the five elements of Chinese characters. According to this method, the word "wood" often belongs to fire (four paintings), and the word "water" belongs to fire (four paintings) and the word "earth" also belongs to fire.

The division of five elements of Chinese characters is very important for naming. According to the traditional naming method, anyone who is born with unbalanced numerology and five elements should be added when naming. The most reasonable, reliable and effective way to make up for these five elements is to make up for them according to the shape and meaning of words.
