What does it mean to compare numbers with images?
Comparing numbers with images is the basic skill of interpreting the Book of Changes, and it is also an important way to study the meaning of numbers. According to the quantitative relationship between yin and yang in divinatory images, we can infer different divinatory meanings such as auspicious and unlucky changes. For example, the hexagram image of "all six hexagrams are correct" indicates that what is asked will flourish; However, if the divinatory symbols are mostly yin, it means that the situation being asked is not optimistic and needs to be handled with caution.
Besides the scholars in the Book of Changes, the concept of hexagrams is also applied in modern life. For example, in some geomantic theories of China, predicting the good or bad of a house is also based on the principle of comparing figures with images. In addition, some cultural products also have the concept of divinatory symbols compared with numbers. For example, in the movie "The List of Gods", when the protagonist Su Daji decided to turn his fate around, he used the divination symbol "three to two".
