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.

'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.'

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.

This article offers a multidimensional exploration of Lesser Cold (Xiaohan) from the perspectives of pre-Qin Confucian and Daoist philosophy, etymological origins, astronomical observation, and phenological reasoning. It reveals the 'firm force gradually ascending' imagery of the Lin (Approach) hexagram in the twelfth month, the wisdom of birds — wild geese turning north, magpies building nests, pheasants calling — as creatures that 'sense yang and move first.' It examines the paradox of why 'Lesser Cold is often colder than Greater Cold,' and elucidates the spirit of the La sacrifice — offering thanks to origins in the depth of winter — and the ancient cosmology of the unity of Heaven and humanity.

This article offers an in-depth interpretation of Xiaoman (Grain Full), one of the twenty-four solar terms, drawing on pre-Qin Confucian and Daoist philosophy, philology, astronomy, and phenology. Through the etymology of "full yet not overflowing," and the phenological signs of bitter herbs flourishing and wheat's autumn arriving, it reveals the deep meaning behind why the twenty-four solar terms include a "small fullness" (Xiaoman) but no "great fullness"—illuminating the ancient Chinese wisdom of guarding against excess, prizing humility, of loss following fullness and gain following modesty, of completeness found even in imperfection, and the venerable cosmology of the unity of Heaven and humanity.
