Introduction to gossip knowledge
In ancient times, when heaven and earth were chaotic, there was neither heaven nor earth, there was no life in the world, and there was only one anode in the whole universe. At that time, the anode "one" was also called Tai Chi. At the beginning of chaos, there was only masculine Tai Chi. Tai Chi has only qi but nothing. Qi is light and clear, and the one that floats is the sky, that is, the sky is bred by light and clear qi ("one" is made up of rigidity, clarity and lightness). When the qi is heavy and turbid, people descend to the ground. (Chaos qi begins to differentiate into clear and turbid qi, that is, Tai Chi begins to differentiate into two "clear and turbid", at which time two instruments are formed. ) From the division and combination of "one" and "-",the five qi of "gold, wood, water, fire and earth" evolved, and the eight diagrams evolved from the two instruments of "one" and "-",so the eight diagrams also include the five qi of gold, wood, water, fire and earth, and the five elements of eight diagrams were formed from this.
Eight Diagrams originated from China's ancient ideas about the basic universe formation, the earth rotation (yin and yang) relationship between the sun and the moon, and the combination of agricultural society and life philosophy. The original data source is the Book of Changes in the Western Zhou Dynasty, which contains 64 hexagrams, but no images. "Book of Changes" records that "Tai Chi is easy to occur, and two instruments are born. Two instruments give birth to four elephants, and four elephants give birth to gossip. "Two instruments are yin and yang, which can be extended to heaven and earth, day and night, men and women at different times, and so on. The four images are shaoyin, shaoyang, Taiyin and the sun. At different times, it can correspond to Sifang, Four Seasons and Four Elephants respectively. Qinglong lives in the east, the gas of spring, and the shaoyang is the master; Suzaku lives in the south, the breath of summer, and the sun is the master; The white tiger lives in the west, the breath of autumn, and the less yin is the main one; Xuanwu is located in the north, and the breath of winter is dominated by the Taiyin. The four seasons of health preservation also correspond to: birth, growth, harvest and hiding. Eight diagrams, that is, dry, Kun, Xun, exchange, gen, earthquake, separation, Kan. Representing the meaning of heaven and earth respectively, there are detailed explanations below.
innate gossip
innate gossip, also known as Fuxi Eight Diagrams, is said to have been written by Fu Xishi who looked at things and took pictures seven thousand years ago.
The Book of Changes says: "Tai Chi gives birth to two instruments, two instruments give birth to four images, and four images give birth to eight diagrams. "This is innate gossip's extremely deductive process. In the whole deductive process, Tai Chi is the first, followed by two instruments, and finally gossip, which reveals the process of the formation of the universe.
gossip the day after tomorrow
gossip the day after tomorrow, also known as gossip, was created by Ji Dan, the duke of Zhou (1152-156 BC).
The gossip of the day after tomorrow is a law drawn from the growth and collection of all things at four o'clock, starting from the earthquake and rotating clockwise, and going round and round. As can be seen from Zhouyi Shuo Gua Zhuan, all things are spring, summer, autumn and winter, and every 36 days is a big Sunday, and the gossip is used for 45 days. Its transformation point is manifested in the eight sections of four positive and four even, and each hexagram has three hexagrams and * * * twenty-four hexagrams, which refers to the twenty-four solar terms of a year.
the eight diagrams are divided into yin and yang
gan, Kan, Gen, Zhen and Si Gua, which belong to Yang Gua, in which Gen is a young man and Kan is a middle man and Zhen is a long man (Zhen, Kan and Gen have more yin than Yang, indicating that Yin follows Yang, so it is Yang Gua)
Kun, Dui, Li and Xun Gua.
Duiqi, Gongwu and Zhensan;
Kun Er, Li Jiu and Xun Si.
the meaning of the five elements
many people are outnumbered, so water is better than fire.
Excellence wins strength, so fire wins gold.
strength wins softness, so gold wins wood.
if you are good at dispersing, the wood will be better than the soil.
reality is better than emptiness, and native land is better than water.
