What is the eight-character fortune-telling method of the Book of Changes?

The approved month of eight characters is divided according to the 24 solar terms. For example, beginning of spring is still the year before, and beginning of spring is the New Year, which is not directly related to the lunar calendar. Both solar terms are a month, silver moon is between beginning of spring and Jingzhe, Uzuki is between Jingzhe and Qingming, and so on. The eight-character numerology was first seen in Huangdi Neijing. At that time, people only knew how to infer human diseases by the time of birth. Later, people gradually discovered that this method can also be used in other aspects. After thousands of years of inheritance and reform, in the Ming and Qing dynasties, the eight-character prediction technique was perfected day by day. In the Five Dynasties, Xu Ziping changed to Japanese occupation as my (Japanese master), focusing on the restraint of the five elements between the four pillars and the encounter between punishment and punishment, and carried it forward. Today's eight-character divination is based on Ziping method, so the eight-character numerology is also called Ziping method or Ziping eight-character study.

Twelve earthly branches

The "eight characters" are also called four pillars (year pillar, moon pillar, sun pillar and time pillar), each of which has two characters, above which are heavenly stems (A, B, C, D, E, Ji, Ke, Xin, Man and Ghost) and below which are earthly branches (Zi, Ugly, Yin, Mao, Chen, Si and Wu). According to legend, during the period of the Yellow Emperor, China's calendar (now the lunar calendar) was made by the emperor's family and Fu. Since the era of the Yellow Emperor, there have been 78 flowers and 68 flowers. A 60-year-old flower is composed of heavenly stems and earthly branches arranged in turn and combined circularly. The eight characters express the position of the sun when a person is born. According to the principle of yin-yang and five elements, we can calculate a person's personality and the life trend presented by this personality. There are many schools of eight-character analysis. Generally speaking, it is divided into traditional school and non-traditional school. Traditional schools are divided into Jiangmen and Zhang Ci. Non-traditional schools include Chen Hanxin School and Infinite Mind School.
