Starting from the mathematical structure of Taiji, the Two Modes, Four Images, and Eight Trigrams in the Book of Changes, this article systematically explores the information-carrying capacity of Bazi and Qimen Dunjia as divinatory systems. Through analysis of Yin-Yang, the Five Phases, the Hetu and Luoshu, and other classical mathematical foundations, it seeks to provide a unified perspective for measuring and comparing the information volume of these two arts.

'An in-depth analysis of the core differences between the "Life Chart" (Mingpan / Zhongshen Pan) and the "Hourly Chart" (Shi Pan / Shijia Qimen) in Qimen Dunjia. Exploring from the dimensions of temporal scope, analytical logic, application range, and philosophical essence, this article reveals the dialectical relationship between fate and contingency in Yixue divination.'

A thorough exploration of the principles behind Qimen Dunjia's capacity for 'multiple judgments from a single chart.' Through holographic cosmology, multidimensional coordinate systems, the symbolic system of universal correspondences, and the shifting of Taiji focal points, this article dissects the core mechanisms of what is regarded as the highest art of divination in ancient China.

This essay offers an in-depth exploration of the Bailu (White Dew) solar term from the perspectives of pre-Qin Confucian and Daoist philosophy, etymological analysis, astronomy and phenology, and the Classic of Poetry's 'Reeds and Rushes' (Jianjia). It examines how dew forms through the interplay of yin and yang qi, the philosophy of concealment and manifestation, the metaphor of morning dew, the celestial shift as yin grows heavy and dew turns white, the eternal longing of 'reeds so grey, white dew turns to frost' — the unattainable figure beyond the autumn waters — and the wisdom of contemplation found in the Guan hexagram's 'great observation above' and 'teaching through the numinous way.'

This article focuses on the opening chapter of the Guiguzi, 'Enriching the Spirit by Emulating the Five Dragons' (Sheng Shen Fa Wu Long), offering exegesis and critical analysis of the original text from a Pre-Qin perspective, drawing upon texts no later than the two Han dynasties. It explores the meaning of 'enriching the spirit,' the cosmogony of Dao and Qi, the distinction between the True Person and the Sage, and the inner connections among method, spirit, mind, and vital breath, aiming to reveal this chapter's scholarly value as the programmatic foundation of the entire Guiguzi.

This article offers a philological and philosophical examination of the Qingming solar term, exploring the cosmic significance and humanistic ideals embodied in the concepts of "clarity" (qing) and "luminosity" (ming). Through a comprehensive analysis of its dual nature as both a seasonal juncture and a cultural festival, the study elucidates the traditional worldview of the unity of man and nature, revealing the profound reflections within Chinese civilization on life, death, and ethical order.
