Cultural background of rumors

Eight diagrams have two symbolic forms: one is three diagrams and eight classics; One is six hexagrams of gossip.

1, original meaning and derivative meaning

First of all, distinguish two different meanings of gossip. It generally means eight diagrams, that is, eight diagrams in Zhouyi, transliterated as eight diagrams. Gossip in this sense can be divided into innate gossip and acquired gossip. The special meaning derived from the word gossip is gossip with double quotation marks. In the entertainment circle, it refers to informal gossip or news, usually the privacy of stars, which is gossip (nonsense, gossip). Gossip in this sense is a general statement, and there is no difference between nature and nurture. So the difference in meaning is mainly the occasion of use.

Gossip, the correct translation: gossip (or gossip) A picture is a picture, and a hexagram is a picture. Mistranslation: gossip.

2. Original intention

Bagua: Ganzhi, Kungan, Zhenzhun, Xunxun, Kangan, Lili, Gengan and Dui. Also known as refined hexagrams, mountain hexagrams, three hexagrams, and Cheng Xiaozhi hexagrams, they are arranged according to Yang hexagrams "-"and Yin hexagrams "-",which are symbols of three hexagrams arranged from top to bottom. Some people also use the Chinese character "three for peace, but not half a meter" to remember the eight diagrams symbols.

Combining two single hexagrams up and down is one of the 64 hexagrams, which is called hexagrams.

Gossip is the foundation of the Yi-ology system. The pre-Qin Yi-ology was mainly "three changes", namely, Lianshan in Xia Dynasty, Tibet in Shang Dynasty and Zhouyi in Zhou Dynasty. Later generations are familiar with Zhouyi, which can be divided into Yijing and Yi Zhuan.

Gossip represents China's early philosophical thoughts. Besides divination and geomantic omen, their influence also involves Chinese medicine, martial arts, music and mathematics.

Congenital eight diagrams usually appear with Taiji diagrams. Taiji and Wuji represent the ultimate noumenon "Tao" of China's traditional beliefs (Confucianism and Taoism).

Gua-shaped memory song: In the Song Dynasty, Zhu wrote "The Eight Diagrams Taking Images Song" in the original meaning of Zhouyi to help people remember Gua-shaped memory: three years of hard work, six broken Kun; Shake the jar and cover the bowl; Empty in the middle and full in the middle; Change the shortage, change the shortage, and break it. Types of gossip: divided into innate gossip, Zhongtian gossip and acquired gossip.

Eight Diagrams Yin and Yang: Gan, Zhen, Kan and Gen are four Yang hexagrams, while Kun, Xun, Li and Hui are four Yin hexagrams.

Eight diagrams and five elements: only discuss the five elements of the day after tomorrow: dry, gold exchange, Kun and root exchange soil, earthquake and worry exchange wood, ridge exchange water, separation exchange fire.

Jiugong Bagua: There are innate matches, acquired matches and Taiyi matches. There are three main theories about the origin of gossip:

1, Fuxi painted eight diagrams in Guatai Mountain, and later there were Fuxi painting tables in Tianshui, Gansu and Henan. Guatai Mountain, also known as Guatai, is said to be the place where Fu began to draw gossip when observing astronomy and geography. Located at the northern end of Sanyang in western Sichuan, it now governs Weinan Town in Maiji District. Of course, many modern scholars do not believe that future generations entrusted some inventions to ancient celebrities; In addition, it belongs to the Qingdun site in Hai 'an County, eastern Jiangsu Province in the late Neolithic period, and 1979 unearthed eight hexagrams. In the ancient environment with sparse population, numerous tribes and backward communication tools, it takes a long process for culture to spread to distant eastern Jiangsu.

2. Zhang's divination theory evolved into eight diagrams in multiple steps: his article "A Trial Interpretation of the Yi Gua in the Early Zhou Dynasty" studied a number of digital divination unearthed in the 20th century, and thought that there were a large number of divination (digital divination) at first, and then it was simplified into several divination numbers, and then it was simplified from these specific values to this theory and some ancient books (represented by one or six numbers in the Warring States period).

3. Liu Linying's astronomical hexagrams evolved into the Eight Diagrams Theory: His "A New Solution to the Mystery of the Origin of the Book of Changes" expounded the six-hexagram system theory and thought that hexagrams originated from the prediction activities of astronomers' measuring tools. The original hexagram was a six-hexagram system, without divination and deviation, and later evolved into a gossip system. The important evidence is that the six-hexagram system (such as Yin San Sanyang) is the backbone theory of traditional Chinese medicine, which cannot be explained by gossip, but the moon divination in the six-hexagram system exists ". Later, the paper "A Textual Research on the Use of Six Images in Digital divination in Shang and Zhou Dynasties" denied that Yi divination originated from divination theory, and demonstrated that the four images divination method before the Eastern Zhou Dynasty was based on six images. The complicated divination figures are only the figures of six images and their changes, while the six images of Yin and Yang are essentially

These three statements all have strong argument power, and there are many viewpoints. For example, Liu Jue put forward Guiying theory in 1946, arguing that gossip originated from the sun shadow recorded by Tugui; Feng Youlan believes that gossip comes from imitating the tortoise omen of divination and is a standardized "omen". Similarly, Qu Wanli's Yi Gua comes from the theory of tortoise divination; Li believes that the ancients used knotted ropes to record divination figures, which later evolved into gossip. The source of this statement is speculation about the name of Basso, an ancient book. Ningsheng Wang's gossip originated from Lei Fuzi of Yi nationality. Some guesses are completely unfounded. Comparatively speaking, Huang Yilu believes that Yi Gua originated from the Jibu culture of the descendants of the Zhuang nationality in Xianyue. Although the discussion of several key links is weak, it is still under discussion and has a certain foundation.

These are the source theories of gossip, which is the content of another item: the source theory of gossip.

Attachment: The pictograms of ancient Taiji on painted pottery at Dawenkou Cultural Site in Tai 'an, Shandong Province, also called simulacra, are symbol types rather than single entities. It is easy to set words according to images, and the number of images is the basis of meaning. The Book of Changes, the Book of Changes, and the plum blossom folding method are all broken by images, which are easily like a vast number. The specific method depends on the problem item and determines a small range.

Bagua guangxiang

Light image is a widely symbolized object. There are many introductions in Shao Yong's Biography of Zhouyi Shuo Gua in Northern Song Dynasty, Yi Shu of Plum Blossom and Yi Xiangyan in contemporary times, with three volumes of hundreds of thousands of words. Because there is too much content, it is not appropriate to occupy more space here.
