In the clan era, lottery was developed into a special witchcraft and used as a means of religion, politics, economy, medicine and life, because the process of lottery verified the existence of some mysterious force.
The basic concepts of hexagrams are "Yin" and "Yang", and different hexagrams reflect good or bad luck. The method of divination is completely consistent with the traditional gambling method in essence, and it is only a procedure. The key lies in the mysterious result of "contingency". This contingency was mysterious to the ancients, who firmly believed that divination was God's choice.
Religion:
Gambling and primitive religion are undoubtedly homologous products of experience, that is, religious ceremonies and gambling procedures follow the arrangement of natural selection, which endows human society with unparalleled principles of order. The ancients in China pushed the primitive experience of "Heaven" to the extreme, which almost ran through the whole life of religion, politics and economy.
Thus, the ancient civilization of China with a unique form was constructed, which had a great influence on China people's world outlook and outlook on life. The reason why China people are keen on gambling shows that they believe in Heaven, so that their experiences, customs, cultural traditions and thinking all follow the central idea of Heaven.
