Historical Development
The origin of fortune-telling is unknown and can be traced back to the Xia and Shang Dynasties. This can be confirmed by the fact that most of the unearthed oracle bone inscriptions are inscriptions. At that time, before holding important events such as sacrifices, conquests, and weddings, the ancestors would burn tortoise shells or use yarrow to perform devout divination on the matter, so as to judge good or bad luck. This was probably the germination of early fortune-telling.
In the Zhou Dynasty, King Wen, Duke Zhou and others compiled a book based on the experience of their predecessors and named it "The Book of Changes", which raised the art of divination to a theoretical level. During the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, Confucius and his disciples added annotated articles called Shiyi to the Book of Changes. From then on, the Book of Changes was also called the Book of Changes.
Almost at the same time, Zou Yan, a doctor of Qi State, founded the Five Elements Theory, which was combined with the Yin and Yang theory of the Book of Changes to form the Yin and Yang Five Elements Theory. In the Han Dynasty, it was carried forward by Dong Zhongshu, Jingfang and others, and gradually formed a divination and fortune-telling system with theories and methods.
However, the divination and fortune-telling system at that time was still relatively superficial, limited to the level of fortune-telling, and the accuracy of fortune-telling was not very high. It would be more appropriate to say it is divination.
