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.

'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.'

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.

This article deeply analyzes the semantic fission of the character "ming" (命) in pre-Qin thought, tracing its evolution from divine mandate and innate nature to an active mission, demonstrating that it was not passive fatalism but rather proactive assumption of responsibility beyond cognitive horizons. By re-examining core propositions like Confucius's "knowing the mandate of Heaven," the study reveals the dynamic relationship of Heaven-human interaction in pre-Qin philosophy, showcasing the robust subjectivity and sense of mission within traditional Chinese culture.

This article offers an in-depth reading of the twelve characters 'Frost's Descent — welcome the bride; ice thaws — gradually cease; every ten days — one conjugal union,' tracing their origins through the Rites of Zhou, the Record of Rites, and other pre-Qin classics, and analyzing the marriage-season restrictions, yin-yang philosophy, agrarian-political considerations, and conjugal temperance they encode, with the aim of reconstructing the core of the pre-Qin ritual-thought system.

Reading the tilting-vessel chapter of Xunzi's "Youzuo" word by word, purely through the lens of pre-Qin Confucian and Daoist classics. From the threefold meaning of the character 宥 (you), the political allegory of Duke Huan of Lu's ancestral temple, the two kinds of emptiness in "empty and it tilts," and the four layers of meaning behind Zilu's question about holding fullness rather than guarding the mean, to the relation between the four "guardings" — meeting cleverness with foolishness, meeting merit with yielding — and virtue, and the cosmological argument and social extension of "dipping out and diminishing." Drawing together the *Analects*, *Mencius*, *Laozi*, *Zhuangzi*, the *Great Treatise*, the *Zuo Tradition*, and the *Discourses of the States*, this essay reveals how a wordless inscription came to carry the whole pre-Qin wisdom of fullness, emptiness, loss, and gain.
