Today's Chinese New Year's Eve, the new year begins immediately, and at this time, some friends like to find Mr. to calculate the fortune of next year.
Some gentlemen pinched their fingers and said: "Tai Sui should sit on the head, and if you encounter it, there will be disaster", or say: "The year is coming, if you don't die, you will die others".
Especially friends in the natal year, after the guidance of these great gods, they are panicked all day long, and hurry up to pay the master to do it, or ask the mascot of the master to consecrate, in order to protect themselves through the natal year smoothly.
But is the natal year really that fierce? Or when divination, is it really bad to take a bad fortune?
In fact, in life, there are many examples of getting married, having children, being promoted and making a fortune when "the year is coming".
Therefore, when we are lucky and evil, we also need to treat it rationally.
In history, there are examples of "evil hexagrams become auspicious", among which the stories of Ji Xiaolan and Confucius are very representative.
1. Ji Xiaolan, who accounts for the murderous hexagram, is still the first in the exam
Before the young Ji Xiaolan participated in the township test, his master gave a divination hexagram, and the hexagram was like this: "Trapped in the stone." If you don't see his wife, she will be fierce", this is a fierce hexagram.
According to the hexagram, Ji Xiaolan's teacher explained to Ji Xiaolan: "This exam will be unsatisfactory."
But Ji Xiaolan disagreed, explaining: "I haven't married yet, how can I get a wife?" I don't see his wife, which means that there is no one who can match me, which can be understood as the first place in the exam. As for being trapped in a stone, it means that there is a person with a stone in his name who takes the second exam."
When the results of the exam came out, it was Ji Xiaolan who took the first place, and the person who ranked second was a candidate surnamed Shi.
Second, Confucius, who took advantage of the evil hexagram, still won the battle
Once, the state of Lu wanted to wave his army to attack the country of Yue, and divined the auspicious and evil before the war, and the hexagram was: "Ding folds the foot, covers the public and the fish, its shape is strong, fierce", we can see that this is also a fierce hexagram.
At that time, Zigong, a student of Confucius, explained according to this hexagram: "Ding's feet are broken, and it is necessary to go out to fight, which is a bad omen, so this time the battle must be defeated."
When Confucius learned about it, he put forward no opinion: "In terms of topography, there is a lot of water in the territory of Yueguo, and if you fight a war in Yueguo, you need to use boats, and you don't need to use your feet at all." Although it is a full setback, it represents the conditions of the Lu people who will adapt to the Yue country, so the Lu people will win the battle."
As a result this time, the Lu State defeated the Yue State.
3. How to accurately judge the good and the bad?
In fact, through these two examples, we can know that the interpretation of hexagrams cannot be rigidly copied and read according to the script, and there is no absolute good luck.
Sometimes auspicious hexagrams may represent something bad.
Sometimes a bad fortune may mean that something good will happen.
Therefore, we can't use absolute thinking to look at good luck and evil, such as "the year is coming", and the evil hexagram is absolutely evil, which is not advisable.
Let's give a few more examples, such as divination of the recent career, if we get the Kan hexagram in the autumn, we know that the Kan hexagram represents twists and turns. But because it is in autumn, the five elements belong to gold, and Kan is water, and the two form a structure of gold and water, which is a sign of wealth, and if it is a business, it means that the business will be smooth.
As another example, if we decipher a hexagram for a child. When he got his wife's wealth, according to the actual situation, we know that this husband does not mean that he is getting married and finding a partner, nor is it making money in business, but what is in line with reality should be the money that his parents or elders may give him.
Again, if you divinate the analogy in the water, when you get a hexagram, although it is the sky and the dragon, it cannot be said that the dragon in the water is the dragon, and from the actual point of view, it can be a swimming fish.
For another example, when judging an image in water, the result of divination is a hexagram. Although the hexagram represents the dragon, you cannot say that the thing in the water is a dragon, but that it is a swimming fish.
Therefore, whether it is the eight characters or the interpretation of the hexagram, the key to the judgment of the hexagram is to make a comprehensive judgment according to the actual situation.
In fact, there is a poem in Qimen, called "If you return the Yin and Yang Principle, the heaven and the earth are in one palm", and the principle of Yin and Yang change is the fundamental principle of good and evil change.
