There are many methods of divination. In ancient times, the method of divination with yarrow was very complicated. For example, the copula says, "The number of big swallows is fifty, and nine out of forty are used; Divide into two, with two elephants, hang one with three elephants, rub it with four, with four elephants, return to singularity, jump like an elephant, and then jump at the age of five, so hang it again. This is the divination method of yarrow. Later, it was said that the fairy Lord of Guigu turned grass into copper coins, and wealth, officials, fathers, brothers and sons were all bound by God's orders. This is actually a major reform of divination! Because the ancients were calm and sincere, the long process and time of divination can still make people feel connected and concentrate; So many people, so many distractions, there is no such thing as a long wait! Before yarrow was finished, it was like putting a thousand kites in my head, and I didn't know where to fly. How can you get accurate divination without concentration? This trend of simplification has been developing; For example, rice grains, numbers and characters are drawn ... Among them, things, sounds, people (including one word, two words ... eleven words), feet, animals and still lives are listed magnificently in the Book of Changes of Plum Blossoms, and so on. Most of the divination methods we can see today can't get rid of these categories, but they have changed slightly.
Divination genre:
When it comes to divination, there are many methods, too numerous to mention. Regardless of China's divination method, many foreign products, such as playing cards, tarot cards, and even coffee patterns left in coffee cups, can indicate good or bad luck! Coupled with their own inherent occupation methods, it will be lively. In fact, the so-called "magic machine is moving", as long as you can master the intelligence of the magic machine, then nothing is unpredictable. But even so, between the depth, there is much to be done!
If it is simply based on divination, it can be roughly divided into three types: divination of Zhouyi, divination of plum blossom and divination of king Wen.
Zhouyi divination method:
This is a divination method based on Zhouyi. The Eight Diagrams of King Wen and the Eight Diagrams of the Day after Tomorrow are different from Lianshan and Guizang, and also different from Fuxi's congenital divinatory images, that is, the divinatory sequence divinatory images transmitted in Zhouyi. Fuxi's congenital divination, ranked according to the river chart, is the master, body and innate qi, based on Gankun; Wen Wang's "The Divination of the Day After Tomorrow" is a guest, a use, and a spirit of the day after tomorrow, which was used by Li Kan instead of Gan Kun. In short, congenital divination is the basic form between heaven and earth, and acquired divination is the evolution of all things in the world.
The Book of Changes is a masterpiece of all saints, mainly to clarify the heaven and teach people the purpose of life. But "Cohesion" said: "It is a natural god, and a saint is it; Heaven and earth change, and saints can make it work.
; The sky hangs like an elephant, seeing good or bad luck, and saints are like it; Draw a picture of the river, write a book, and be a sage. "The spread of heaven is endless; From the Taoist point of view, Zhouyi is certainly good.
But if it is realized as the good or ill luck of all things in the world, it is impossible! So the difference between Taoism and Taoism is that the former is philosophy and the latter is Taoism. These are just the differences between body and use.
It's just that it's not a question of right or wrong. Therefore, the Book of Changes has become an authentic book of Buddhism and Taoism, and it should even be said that it is a compulsory subject of philosophy of Yin-Yang and Five Elements.
Therefore, it is called "the divination method of Zhouyi", because this divination method is mainly based on the scripture of Zhouyi. Because there are texts to read, it seems easy, but it is not! Because one of the classics is short, it is not enough for modern people to use; The divination sequence of the two images is very profound, which is beyond the understanding of ordinary people. Like the Analects of Confucius? 6? 4. Narrator: "Confucius said:" Add me a few years old, and I will learn the Book of Changes at fifty, so there is no big deal. " Another authentic divination said: "... Guiguzi Stone has a far-reaching influence because of its profound changes in reasoning, and it is afraid that fools will not understand it, so they will use money instead of fortune-telling officials, fathers, brothers and children ..." That's what it means. Therefore, this method of divination is emphasized by scholars' colleges, and there are probably two tendencies: one is to enter the discussion of pure philosophy; One is to understand the meaning, and the other is to tickle!
Plum blossoms are easy to count:
Meihua Yishu was founded by Shao Yong Kang Jie, a native of Northern Song Dynasty and Qing Dynasty. It is said that he "hides in the deep mountains, does not cook in winter, does not fan the wind in summer, and it is easy to hide his heart and forget the cold and heat." It is really admirable to learn so much. However, in the preface of Authentic Plum Blossom Yi Shu, this divination method seems to have been inherited by another teacher, but only carried forward by Mr. Kang Jie. What is the truth? We don't know! This is a historical case, so don't disturb our interest in learning hexagrams. China's culture is extensive and profound, and after thousands of years of tempering, we can achieve what one says. Strictly speaking, it's hard to say who the founder is. What's more, the ancients didn't pay attention to copyright, so how could they pursue it?
The number of plum blossoms is dominated by innate gossip, and the number of hexagrams is based on the nature-one against two earthquakes, three against three ... Take Kumba as an example. The so-called innate priority is to pay more attention to the handling of yin and yang and five elements, and the wording of Zhouyi is only a reference. The so-called distinction between heaven and earth has been discussed before. Simply put, congenital heavy gasification, yin
The basic structure of yang and five elements; This began to have a system of humanistic laws and regulations, and art is skillful. This is why Fuxi Bagua has only images and no words, while the hexagrams and texts in Zhouyi have their own reasons. Therefore, the core structure of plum blossom easy to count is a three-dimensional, practical science to observe its changes.
The so-called body users, yin and yang also; The body is always static and cloudy, and the body is always moving and yang. Therefore, hexagrams are divided into internal and external hexagrams, the stubborn use hexagrams, and the static ones are body hexagrams. As yin, yin can't be broken, and it will hurt! Gua is strong but not weak, and weak is not good. In the actual divination process, we must first determine the form and use divination; For example, if you get the fifth trick of geomantic divination, you will know that the inner divination is the body divination and the outer divination is the use of divination. Body divination belongs to wood, divination belongs to water, and it is easy to become a subject with a living body. How about seeing the decline of body divination? If wood is lucky in spring, it will decline in the golden month. In addition, we must also consider the changes in the mentality of both sides; In short, this divination is the state of things, mutual divination is the process of things, and change of heart is the result of things. Among them, the decline of the five elements is an important basis for divination.
Although the number of plum blossom changes is innate, we should also consider the hexagrams in Zhouyi. For example, Shao Kangjie said that it was unlucky for a young man to shine on his face, which accounted for the fifth move of this hexagram word. There was a "bundle of silks" in the hexagram word, and it was determined that there was a happy event, regardless of whether the hexagram image was used in physics. Of course, this also involves touching the machine and inspiration. The so-called "master teaches people to follow the rules" and "can only be understood, but not expressed". China's foresight pays the most attention to talent and inspiration, which is easy to count in plum blossom? 6? There is an example in the fifth volume. Li and her husband, whose son is a woman, are safe? Father and son have opposite judgments, that's why! So when should I read the eulogy? When will it not be used? I'm afraid it's beyond words!
Wen Sheng Gua Wang:
Before talking about king Wen's divination, we should first mention the "five elements breaking" It is based on Huntian Jiazi, that is, Najia is above the six strategies, and there are three strategies of the world, harmony and body, and five gods: God of Wealth, Official God, Father God, Brother God and Son God. Come on, good luck and bad luck change with the change between birth and grams. King Wen's divination is a divination method based on the behavior of Yi Wu, with heavenly stems, six animals, gods and demons as accessories.
. Many people only know that there are king Wen hexagrams, but they don't know that there are five lines broken. In essence, there is not much difference between the two. Because the birth of the five elements is restrained and the main body, the six beasts of the gods and demons only present some established results in a more subtle way. King Wen's divination, though called "King Wen", is actually only in the name of Zhou Wenwang, but also in memory of him. From the perspective of divination, his relationship with Zhouyi has gradually drifted away! Although the system is not the same as plum blossom, there are similarities in attaching importance to the five elements. It can also be said that they are all congenital, and Wen Wanggua has also joined many discussions similar to Zi Ping's eight characters.
There are more practical elements in the divination of King Wen. As long as you use God correctly, you can judge good or bad. For example, when it comes to wealth, it is based on wealth; Ask for an exam, parents should look good; Or break up the relationship. I do it for the world, and so should the other party. Look at the strength of God, look at the treatment relationship around you, and look at life? Kezhi? Help it? Did it work? ... although there are only six.
Seemingly simple, it presents infinite factors and possibilities. This divination method has been baptized for countless years, refined and sublimated by many sages and philosophers, and has also integrated many factions of Yin-Yang and Five Elements! If you simply bring it into the divination department, I'm afraid you can't see the forest for the trees!
