What is the eight characters?

The eight characters refer to: Xin, Mao, Ding, You, Geng, Wu, C and Zi respectively.

The eight-character birthdays are arranged from top to bottom in heavenly stems and earthly branches according to the year, month, day and time of a person's birth. The eight characters refer to: Xin, Mao, Ding, You, Geng, Wu, C and Zi respectively. These eight children represent the year, the month and the day respectively, such as: Xin Mao is the year, Ding You is the month, the day and Bing Zi is the time.

The eight-character "image" and the image of Zhouyi are different in composition. The Book of Changes uses Yin and Yang and the hexagrams composed of these two hexagrams as "images", and the eight characters are symbols composed of Chinese characters. From this perspective, the eight-character image is more similar to the "image" of traditional Chinese medicine.

Although it is composed of Chinese characters, this Chinese character is actually just a symbol here, not a general language or sentence. It's just an elephant. The eight characters are essentially the same as the hexagrams in Zhouyi, except that they use Chinese characters instead of Yin and Yang symbols to form hexagrams.
