China:Hetu Luoshu
  • The legend of the dragon, horse and turtle:
A long time ago, dragons and horses emerged from the Yellow River, carrying the "River Map"; divine turtles emerged from the Luoshui River, carrying the "Luo Shu" on their shells. Inspired by this, Fuxi created Bagua, laying the foundation for metaphysics.
  • Four Symbols and Bagua

There is the concept of "Four Symbols" in metaphysics, that is, "Wuji gives rise to Tai Chi, Tai Chi gives birth to two rituals, and two rituals give rise to four phenomena." The four images represent the different states of yin and yang: Shao Yang, Lao Yang, Shao Yin, and Lao Yin, and then the Eight Diagrams are derived to measure good and bad luck.

  • The mysterious "Book of Changes"
Although the "Book of Changes" is complex, it can be simplified and understood as an empirical book in which the ancients used four images to explore the state of all things in the universe. "Book of Changes" contains three books: "Lianshan" (written by Fu Xi, who studies confrontation), "Gui Zang" (written by Huang Di, who studies transformation), and "Zhou Yi" (written by Ji Chang, who studies changes). Unfortunately, the first two have been lost. , today only "Book of Changes" can be seen.

"The Book of Changes" is divided into two parts: hexagrams (the sixty-four hexagrams are composed of yin and yang lines, each hexagram has hexagram words and line words), and ten wings (Confucius' annotations to help explain the scriptures).
