The eight trigrams represent eight basic objects, collectively called the hexagrams. The arrangement and combination of two of the eight hexagrams constitutes sixty-four hexagrams.

The specific judgment method is based on the orientation of the house. For example, if the Zishan Meridian direction (facing north to south) is Kanzhai, Kanzhai belongs to the fourth east house. Then calculate the house fate of the head of the household. If there are four east fates, it is suitable to live in the east four houses, and if the west four houses are suitable to live in, the west four houses are suitable. 4.
