'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.

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 article offers a deep reading of Yushui (Rain Water) among the Twenty-Four Solar Terms, drawing on pre-Qin Confucian and Daoist philosophy, etymology, and astronomical phenology. Through an examination of the original meanings of the characters "雨" (rain) and "水" (water), the astronomical positioning of the sun at 330° of celestial longitude, and the three phenological signs of the term, combined with Laozi's teaching that 'the highest good is like water,' Guanzi's view of water as the origin of all things, and the Book of Changes' vision of Heaven-One begetting water and clouds moving to bring forth rain, the essay reveals the virtue of water and the meaning—between Heaven and humanity—of spring rain nourishing all things.

This article offers an in-depth reading of the chapters on 'the virtue of ghosts and spirits' and 'sincerity is self-completing' in the Zhongyong, exploring their significance as the core of Confucian metaphysics. Through an analysis of pre-Qin conceptions of ghosts and spirits, it demonstrates that the chapter on spirits serves to prove that 'sincerity cannot be concealed,' and further elucidates how the substance of cheng (sincerity) matches Heaven and supports all things, revealing the ontological foundation of the Doctrine of the Mean.

A line-by-line exegesis of 'Substantiating Intent, Modeled on the Flying Serpent,' the third technique of the Seven Techniques of the Yin Tally in the Original Canon of the *Guiguzi*. Beginning from the definition 'substantiated intent is the deliberation of qi,' it traces the pathology of a hollow intent, the cultivation sequence from calming the five viscera to contemplating the Great Void, the cognitive attainment of 'knowing all under Heaven without leaving one's door,' and clarifies the image of the flying serpent through three pieces of pre-Qin evidence drawn from the *Xunzi*, *Shenzi*, and the *Great Treatise*.
