What secrets does Hetu Luoshu, known as the "Universe Rubik's Cube", hide?
The Hetu Luoshu hides secrets about gossip, numbers, yin and yang, the five elements, astronomy, and geography. Throughout the dynasties, many people have studied Hetu Luoshu. Hetu Luoshu is also one of the most influential people in Chinese culture and contains rich ethical and scientific knowledge. 1. The Origin of Bagua
According to ancient legends, during the ancient Fuxi period, a dragon-horse emerged from the Yellow River in Luoyang, carrying the Hetu on its back. Later, a magical turtle emerged from the Luo River with Luo Shu on its back. After Fuxi read the Hetu Luoshu, he deduced it into Bagua based on this principle, which later became the source of the "Book of Changes". Later, many people studied the laws of Hetu and Luoshu, and connected Bagua with Zhouyi. Zhu Xi even made Hetu Luoshu the first volume of Yixue and highly praised it. Therefore, people have reason to believe that the Zhouyi originated from the Bagua, and the Bagua ultimately originated from the Hetu Luoshu. 2. The secret of numbers
On the river map, there are black dots and white dots arranged in a numerical array, which contain endless mysteries. On the Luo Shu, there are horizontal lines, vertical lines and diagonal lines. lines, the sum of the numbers on these three lines is equal to 15. Scholars at home and abroad, both ancient and modern, have studied the basis of these two pictures and believe that they are the crystallization of the thoughts of Chinese ancestors. The dots in the river diagram actually represent the round sky and the square place. Among them, there are ten numbers. The odd number means yang and the even number means yin. The overall meaning is that everything comes from yin and yang.
Secrets of the Three and Five Elements
In the Hetu Luoshu, there are also secrets about the five elements hidden. In the river diagram, the innate positions of the five elements are determined. The east represents wood, the west represents metal, the south represents fire, the north represents water, and the middle is earth. From the river diagram, we can infer the principle that the five elements are mutually reinforcing and restraining each other, and that all things thrive. The changes in numbers shown in Luo Shu can also be seen as the rules of the four seasons and eight seasons, climate changes, and the deduction of bad luck.
