Types of divination

Possession is a divination system. Occupation is to predict with certain tools (physical objects or graphics, divination belongs to graphics), and occupation is the principle and method of occupation.

Different angles have different classifications.

1, from the perspective of the times

It is divided into primitive divination and rational divination. The primitive professional law is low in level and only pays attention to opportunities, such as throwing stones to decide good or bad luck and so on. The rational occupation method is a theoretical system, such as the three trillion occupation method and the three easy occupation method in ancient China, and the astrology in Indian and western countries all have developed theoretical systems.

2. From the perspective of mainstream occupations in world cultural regions.

East Asia occupied France, India occupied France, and Europe and America occupied France. French occupation in East Asia is characterized by eight diagrams, nine palaces, five elements of yin and yang, and heavenly stems and earthly branches, which is popular in Chinese communities in China, Korea, Japan, Vietnam, Singapore and Southeast Asia. India's occupation of France is characterized by superb astrology. It is said that India's "Nadi" is no less than China's iron plate technology, and gypsy crystal divination originally belongs to Indian culture. The occupation of France by Europe and America mainly inherited the astrology of the East (Egypt and India).

3. From the perspective of Yi Gua, it can be divided into two categories: Yi Gua and Non Yi Gua.

Exhibition is an occupation method based on gossip. In addition, the astronomical form of six hexagrams in the six hexagrams system (that is, the sense of existence in the theory of six qi in Huangdi Neijing) is also an easy occupation. See the entry "Tactics" for more details. There are many non-easy-to-occupy methods, such as Liu Ren, Guagua, Dream-to-occupy method, Lingqi method and Bird-to-occupy method. For example, the chicken divination of ancient Vietnamese and the crystal divination of gypsies.
