Detailed explanation of Bagua diagram knowledge

1. Knowledge of Bagua
The "Gua" of Bagua is a knowing word, from Gui to divination. Gui refers to Tugui, who began to use clay to make pillars to measure the shadow of the sun. Bu means to measure. Li Hachigui measured the sun's shadow, that is, he summarized and recorded the observed sun's shadow from the four directions and four corners, which formed the image of Bagua.
The most basic unit of Bagua is Yao, which is mostly a special symbol describing the changes of the sun's shadow. There are two types of Yao: Yin and Yang. The Yang Yao represents sunlight and the Yin Yao represents moonlight. Each hexagram has three lines, representing the three talents of heaven, earth and man. The heavenly part of Sancai includes the movement of the entire celestial body and meteorological changes. These studies of astrology were called astronomy in ancient times. Earth refers to the method of calculating the annual cycle by observing the sun's shadow, and using the principles of the earth to understand the entire process of growth and collection. The Ministry of Human Resources refers to the combination of astronomy, geography and personnel in order to produce and live according to these laws. The order of each hexagram is from bottom to top. The last horizontal line is called the first line, the middle line is called the second line, and the upper line is called the third line.
The Eight Diagrams represent eight basic objects: Qian is the sky, Kun is the earth, earthquake is the thunder, Xun is the wind, Xun is the wind, Dui is the Ze, Kan is the water, Li is the fire, collectively called the Jing Gua. , a group of two of the eight hexagrams constitutes sixty-four hexagrams.
