I Ching Principles (1)

(Dr.Chen Yikui)

The 24 Yao of Yi Jing is used as a solar term. In fact, it evolved and applied in this way. After having the Yi Jing, it put astronomy into it, and then divided it using the principle of Yi Jing to divide 24 solar terms. With these 24 solar terms, then put on the Heavenly Stems and Earthly Branches set by Huangdi at that time and knead them together to come up with the principle of fortune-telling. This is a set of eight-character system, which was in the late Tang Dynasty. In the Song Dynasty, there was a Chen Xiyi. Everyone in China has its own model. Since the sun is divided into 15 days, the winter solstice is determined by the sun. Dividing 15 days is a solar term for fortune telling, and the moon can be in fortune telling. Chen Xiyi used the 12 earthly branches and 12 palaces to put the moon on, and also put on the dry branches set by Huangdi at that time. He was no longer connected with the hexagrams. He only used the moon and the 12 earth branches, plus the Huangdi created at that time. Dry branch, he got a few rules, we called DouShu.

What is DouShu? There is 1, 6 in the water, 1 and 6 add up to 7, the Big Dipper. If it is 1, it belongs to the Water Bureau, 3 and 8 are wood Bureau, Jin Mu Shui Huo Tu is like this, in the end he did not talk about trigrams but Hetu Luoshu. In the Zhou Dynasty, Hetu Luo The number of the book has been added to the hexagram. If it comes to Hetu Luoshu, it is talking about the hexagram itself!

In this way, many people are engaged in research. The induction of Yijing is also in the Shao Kang Jei of the Zhou Dynasty. He thinks that everything will become a hexagram. It seems that you see horses today, and horses are Qian. If a girl sees a Qian, hexagram will be, Horse and the girl, the girl ’s heart wants to ride that horse, and that girl becomes a girl on top of the horse is Ze Tian Quai. In Japan, there is a specially written Ze Tian called Tiger Supper, try things without power. How can a girl ride that horse? Can't step on the foot beside the saddle! What if the girl ran to the back and was kicked by a horse? Become Tian Ze Lu, like walking on thin ice! Be careful! You girls don’t go behind the horse and get kicked by the horse! If you walk on thin ice, you have to be cautious! This is how Shao Kangjie used it. It seemed to make sense, so he became a school.

By the second half of the Spring and Autumn period, the sense of direction had been called a magnetic spoon called Sinan, which had evolved at that time. At that time, the nobles of senior officials had matched the 28 stars of the Milky Way with the solar terms. At that time, the knowledge of their leaders was matched. After a Sinan plate, when it was in the Western Han Dynasty, it was called Western Han before BC, and it was called Eastern Han after BC. When the high officials and nobles died in the Western Han Dynasty, there was a Sinan plate called Liuren Pan, which was combined at that time. Come down.

The 24 Yao that in Yi Gu just now made it into 24 solar terms during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period. I would like to slightly modify the standard point of this solar term. Before, it was not so accurate, and all looked at astronomy first, because it was necessary to look at astronomy before. On the prairie, on the prairie in Hetao, look at the astronomy and make a decision. When I was in the first few hours, I looked at the star of the place where the Big Dipper was finally at, and at that angle on the entire celestial body, because the earth is the same During the time, when it turned to that place, that point was different, and it was used to make decisions, but at that time, there was no slogan, and only vision and what you did were used to make decisions. It seems to say how to look at a fixed stone platform, the fixed point of that star will probably be within a day or two, or two or three days. In fact, Matteo Ricci introduced astronomy, the average solar day was set, and our 24 solar terms were set. Why did Xu Guangqi believe Ricci so much, because Ricci took Western astronomy to China, and they also used the winter solstice point as the starting point. Then we set their winter solstice point and then use their division to divide. It's great, it's incredible.

Therefore, in the era of Xu Guangqi, the calendar was revised. After repairing, it is now using the Ming Dynasty calendar as the standard type, and now it is more accurate after understanding. In the Republic of China in 1962 (in the Republic of 51), we introduced the division model of the Greenwich Observatory in the United Kingdom as the standard in the world, so the winter solstice points to a few points are accurate. Now, Taiwan has set 24 solar terms with this type of calendar is commonly used in the world.
