Interpretation of the Book of Changes (No.1 ~ 9)

In the Book of Changes, the number 1 stands for Kanshui, the number 2 stands for Kuntu, the number 3 stands for real wood, the number 4 stands for ten-day wood, the number 5 stands for central soil, the number 6 stands for dry gold, the number 7 stands for exchange gold, the number 8 stands for root soil and the number 9 stands for leaving fire.

Yin-yang two instruments, three-inch three-body, four points and four elephants, five elements and five internal organs, six rivers and seven stars, eight diagrams and nine palaces. Eight diagrams represent eight basic images: dry for the sky, Kun for the earth, earthquake for thunder, sorrow for the wind, Geng for the mountain, change for ze, ridge for water, and separation for fire, all of which are called classics. Arrange two of the eight classics into a group to form sixty-four hexagrams. These eight basic symbols also correspond to numbers, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8. There is no number like 9. In the Yi-ology theory, 9 is not a specific number, but a symbol to distinguish the yin and yang attributes of numbers.
