'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 exploration of the philosophical significance of Hexagram 37 'Jiaren' (Family) in the Zhouyi (Book of Changes), analyzing the relationship between the Wind-over-Fire trigram image and the Way of the family, and elucidating the foundational status of 'family' in ancient social structures through pre-Qin Confucian thought on 'roots' (ben) as found in Confucius, Mencius, and the Great Learning.

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 undertakes an in-depth exploration of the proposition 'nourishing the will by emulating the numinous turtle' (yang zhi fa ling gui) in the Guiguzi, examining the symbolic significance of the turtle in high antiquity, the wu-xi shamanic tradition, turtle-shell divination culture, ritual status, and longevity philosophy from multiple dimensions, revealing the profound philosophical thought and methodology of spiritual cultivation it embodies, and striving to restore its original meaning within the pre-Qin intellectual context.
