'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.

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 offers a deep investigation of the Hexagram Tong Ren (Fellowship with Others) from the Yijing (Book of Changes), grounded in pre-Qin Confucian and Daoist thought and archaic culture, tracing layer by layer the meanings of the hexagram image, judgment, and line statements. Through a careful analysis of the distinction between 'sameness' (tong) and 'harmony' (he), and drawing on the structural logic of the Xu Gua Zhuan (Sequence of Hexagrams), the article illuminates Tong Ren's pivotal role in the transition from obstruction to openness, revealing its primordial wisdom of seeking Great Unity within difference.

This scholarly examination of Duanmu Ci reconstructs the legendary life of Zigong by situating him within the multifaceted contexts of Pre-Qin diplomacy, mercantile economy, and intellectual discourse. By transcending the reductive label of a mere merchant, the study recovers his stature as a profound Confucian philosopher and intimate associate of Confucius, thereby elucidating the foundational layers and cultural roots of Pre-Qin civilization.

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.
