Can I really predict the future? If so, how is it predicted?

Zhouyi and its Yi-ology include all the knowledge of heaven, earth and man, and are the general names of ancient social science and natural science. It is the first of the Five Classics of Confucianism and one of the Taoist San Xuan.

The profound influence of Zhouyi on later generations lies not in its so-called predictable future, but in three aspects:

1. Profound ideological content. The opposition between Yin and Yang is the most typical thought in Zhouyi. It reflects the idea of confrontation and change.

2. It is the particularity of his thought expression and method. The Book of Changes, in the form of Shinto teaching, puts witchcraft, which is superstitious by the general public, into the content of natural philosophy and social philosophy, and combines the superstitious form with the content of philosophy, which is easy for people who are not interested in philosophy to accept.

3. The special history of this book. The Book of Changes experienced the ancient gossip, the sixty-four hexagrams in the middle ages and the ancient Yi Zhuan. Eight trigrams were written by Fu Yi, sixty-four hexagrams were played by Zhou Wenwang in Russia and Japan, and the Book of Changes was written by Confucius.

It can be seen that the future prediction of Zhouyi lies not in its superstition, but in its scientific philosophy! People who are interested in Zhouyi should not be superstitious!
