Basic knowledge of the Book of Changes II

Last time we talked about idioms, let's talk about the idiom "intricate". In fact, it also comes from Zhouyi.

We also take Qianshan divination as an example. Modesty is divination, which is also called correct divination.

The wrong divination is the basic divination, and the yin and yang change each other. After the change, you get the wrong hexagrams, and the modest hexagrams come true.

Comprehensive hexagrams are hexagrams obtained by rotating the original hexagrams by 180 and upside down. The comprehensive divination of modest hexagrams is Yu hexagrams.

This is the origin of "complexity", which actually refers to wrong divination and comprehensive divination. Comprehensive divination includes not only wrong divination, but also variable divination and mutual divination.

Change a person's mind to change a person's mind, and what you get is to change your mind. If modesty moves, it means that yin and yang change each other, and the wind rises to divination. It is from here that we often say that a person's change of heart begins.

Mutual divination is a combination of the second, third and fourth hexagrams as the lower hexagrams, and the third, fourth and fifth hexagrams as the upper hexagrams. The mutual divination of modest divination is thunder hydrolysis divination.

Seeing this, I believe you have been "confused". In fact, these changes are all about seeing things from different angles and dimensions. This is the meaning of change in Zhouyi, because the only constant in the world is change.

Let's talk about "nine" and "six" in Zhouyi.

In Zhouyi, Yang is called Nine and Yin is called Six. How did nine and six come from?

When we talked about Hutuluo earlier, we knew that the numbers one, three, five, seven and nine were positive numbers, and two, four, six, eight and ten were negative numbers. The number of yang is extremely expensive, so the number of yang is nine and the number of yin is six, so the number of yin is six.

There is another saying. Later, we will discuss divination. The divination of each number has only four results, and the numbers are six, seven, eight and nine. Yang is positive and Yin is negative, whichever is greater. Seven plus nine, nine is big, so Yang is nine. Negative six and negative eight, negative six is big, so Yin is six.

In addition, it should be emphasized that each hexagram is formed from the bottom up. When we draw a six-pointed star, we should draw it from bottom to top. From bottom to top, each hexagram is called the first hexagram, the second hexagram, the third hexagram, the fourth hexagram and the last hexagram (pay special attention to the fact that the first hexagram is not called the hexagram).

Let's take the dry divination and its wrong divination as an example.
