Five lines of gossip

Friends who like traditional mysterious culture often come into contact with divination methods such as Zhouyi five lines of gossip's fortune telling, so what is the relationship between the five elements and Zhouyi's eight diagrams? First of all, we should understand what the Eight Diagrams of Zhouyi are: The Book of Changes, also known as the Book of Changes, is the first existing work of human beings to express the algebraic thinking of the universe with symbols. It is profound and all-encompassing, and later became the first group classics in China and the source of the avenue.

From Fuxi's divination to Wang Wen's divination, from Duke Zhou's divination to Confucius' Ten Wings, this masterpiece of Chinese culture embodies the overall wisdom and great potential of the Chinese nation represented by Fu, Confucius and is the theoretical source of natural philosophy and humanistic practice in China's traditional ideology and culture.

Gossip, also known as scripture. * * * There are Gan, Kun, Zhen, Xun, Kan, Li, Gen and Dui Bagua. The sixty-four hexagrams in the Book of Changes are all composed of eight diagrams. Gossip originated from the divination of primitive religion. The author of Yi Zhuan believes that the eight diagrams mainly symbolize eight natural phenomena: heaven, earth, thunder, wind, water, fire, mountains and rivers, and each letter symbolizes many things. He also believes that the divination of Gan and Kun occupies a particularly important position in the Eight Diagrams and is the source of all phenomena in nature and human society.

Five lines of gossip of Zhouyi

Zhouyi has five elements of heaven and earth, giving birth to gossip, and gossip has yin and yang poles. The way to balance heaven and earth goes round and round in harmony with each other. The concept of traditional Chinese medicine is also harmony, so that the yin and yang in the body can be reconciled and in a balanced state. Human nature comes from the five elements. In ancient times, Huangdi Xuanyuan was invented in Neijing, and Zhou Wenwang wrote Yijing, and the theory of eight diagrams was also consistent with the five elements. Later, it was deeply created by Mr. Wang of Chaoyang County, Jehol Province, and advocated the operation of the five elements, which is the key to monasticism.

Introduction to five lines of gossip

Five elements is a systematic view of ancient Taoism in China, which is widely used in traditional Chinese medicine, geomantic omen, numerology, physiognomy and divination. The meaning of the five elements includes five basic trends in the evolution of yin and yang: water represents moistening, fire represents inflammation, gold represents convergence, wood represents stretching, and soil represents neutralization. Ancient philosophers in China used the theory of five elements to explain the formation of all things in the world and their relationships. It emphasizes the whole and aims to describe the movement form and transformation relationship of things. Yin and Yang are ancient theories of unity of opposites, and the five elements are primitive system theories.

The Book of Changes contains eight diagrams and five elements, and everything in the Book of Changes is interrelated and functional. Only by combining them all to analyze things is the most comprehensive.

Judging from the relationship between the five elements, the theory of the five elements came into being relatively late, which may be related to the appearance of bronzes.

Fuxi lived in the Neolithic Age, so it is impossible to have the theory that the five elements coexist. This can be seen from Fuxi's innate eight diagrams. Innate gossip embodies the theory of Yin and Yang, but there is no theory of five elements.

The order of innate gossip is: Cognac, Duier, Li San, Zhensi, Xunwu, Liu Kan, Genqi and Kunba. According to this order, its trend happens to be an S-shape, that is, the yin and yang in the Taiji diagram, in which yang flourishes, yin declines, yang in the yang, and yang in the yin. If innate gossip also has a mutual relationship, then there is only a reciprocal relationship between Yin and Yang. Therefore, the innate gossip number, that is, the order of Gan Yi, Dui Er, Li San, Zhen Si, Xun Wu, Liu Kan, Gen Qi and Kun Ba, is an important basis to embody the thought of transforming Yin and Yang.

As can be seen from the gossip the day after tomorrow, Wang Wen has greatly improved the status of various pictures in innate gossip. Obviously, Wang Wen's acquired gossip has introduced the concept of five elements, and every gossip in the gossip has been endowed with the attributes of five elements.

The attribute of acquired gossip not only retains the attribute of innate gossip, but also adds the attribute of five elements.

Specifically, because gold produces water and rain falls from the sky, the dry divination is endowed with the attribute of gold; For ze, ze contains water, and it seems that water is produced by ze, so changing hexagrams is also given the attribute of gold; Kun is the land, and the landlord is mainly composed of soil, so Kun hexagrams are endowed with the attribute of soil. Similarly, because the Western Zhou Dynasty is located in the northwest of China, the surrounding mountains are basically earth mountains, so it is also endowed with the attribute of earth.

Although the earthquake was thunder, the spring thunder moved and plants began to sprout and grow. According to the Book of Changes, thunderstorms did occur, but all plants and trees were covered with armor, so the earthquake was endowed with the attribute of wood. Similarly, Xun is the wind, and trees begin to grow in the wind. Trees are difficult to grow in windless and unventilated places, so Xun has also been endowed with the attribute of wood. In this way, each gossip is endowed with five elements.

In terms of graphic arrangement, because Chinese mainland is located in the north of the equator and the south is hot, divination from fire is put in to symbolize summer; It's cold in the north, so putting water in it symbolizes winter. The east is the place where the sun rises and is full of vitality. Put wooden hexagrams in it to symbolize the spring when crops and trees grow. The west is where the sun sets. Putting gold divination in it symbolizes the autumn of Xiaosha collection. From then on, the four seasons are distinct.

This is just to use the Book of Changes to classify some things, master their laws and imagine them, so that we can apply the Book of Changes to anything to analyze problems. To understand five lines of gossip's profound knowledge, we must keep learning. Learning is an accelerator of success, which allows us to have a deeper understanding of traditional culture and knowledge such as Zhouyi, Five Elements, Eight Diagrams and Numerology.
