Five, Examples of Resulting Hexagrams

乾為天，自下一爻變起，初變陰，天風姤；二變陰，天山遁；三變陰，天地否；四變陰，風地觀；五變陰，山地剝；上爻為主，不動。再變四為陽，火地晉；再將內卦三爻，全部變為陽爻，火天大有。餘見後通變部。

Using the Qian (Heaven) hexagram as an example, we start from the lowest line and change them one by one. The first line becomes yin, forming the Gou (Heaven and Wind) hexagram; the second line becomes yin, forming the Dun (Heaven and Mountain) hexagram; the third line becomes yin, forming the Pi (Heaven and Earth) hexagram; the fourth line becomes yin, forming the Guan (Wind and Earth) hexagram; the fifth line becomes yin, forming the Bo (Mountain and Earth) hexagram; the top line is the main line of the hexagram and remains unchanged. After changing to the fifth generation, we return to change the fourth line back to yang, forming the Jin (Fire and Earth) hexagram, which is the youhun hexagram; then changing the third line of the inner trigram back to yang, forming the Da You (Fire and Heaven) hexagram, which is the guihun hexagram. The methods for changing other hexagrams are detailed in the section 'Tongbian Bu' later.

八純卦，世上；初爻變，一世卦；二爻變，二世卦；三爻變，三世卦；四爻變，四世卦；五爻變，五世卦。復卦四爻變，游魂卦；再總變下三爻，歸魂卦。一世卦，應在四；二世卦，應在五；三世卦，應在上；四世卦，應在初；五世卦，應在二；八純卦，應在三；游魂卦，應在初；歸魂卦，應在上。彼為應，世為我。應為晦，世為貞。

The rule for positioning the World Line: In the eight pure hexagrams, the World Line is on the top line. If the first line changes, it becomes the first generation hexagram, with the World Line on the first line. If the second line changes, it becomes the second generation hexagram, with the World Line on the second line. If the third line changes, it becomes the third generation hexagram, with the World Line on the third line. If the fourth line changes, it becomes the fourth generation hexagram, with the World Line on the fourth line. If the fifth line changes, it becomes the fifth generation hexagram, with the World Line on the fifth line. After the fifth generation, if the fourth line reverts, it becomes the wandering soul hexagram, with the World Line still on the fourth line. If all the lower three lines revert, it becomes the returning soul hexagram, with the World Line on the third line. The rule for positioning the Response Line: The Response Line is always three lines apart from the World Line. In the first generation hexagram, the Response Line is on the fourth line; in the second generation hexagram, it is on the fifth line; in the third generation hexagram, it is on the top line; in the fourth generation hexagram, it is on the first line; in the fifth generation hexagram, it is on the second line; in the eight pure hexagram, it is on the third line; in the wandering soul hexagram, it is on the first line; in the returning soul hexagram, it is on the top line. The Response Line represents the other party, and the World Line represents my side. The Response Line is external and is called 'Hui', while the World Line is internal and is called 'Zhen'.

持世納甲為飛神，本宮納甲為伏神。八純與歸魂，以本宮持世為飛神，相配卦持世為伏神。乾與坤，坎與離，震與巽，艮與兌，皆相配也。假如乾卦上爻壬戌持世，是飛神；坤卦上爻癸酉持世，即癸酉是乾家伏神也。餘仿此。

The heavenly stem and earthly branch contained in the line that holds the world (持世) is called the "Flying God" (飞神). The heavenly stem and earthly branch contained in the same line position of the first trigram of the palace is called the "Hidden God" (伏神). For the eight pure trigrams and the returning soul trigrams, the line that holds the world in the palace is considered the "Flying God," and the line that holds the world in the paired trigram is considered the "Hidden God." The pairing relationship is as follows: Qian (Heaven) pairs with Kun (Earth), Kan (Water) pairs with Li (Fire), Zhen (Thunder) pairs with Xun (Wind), and Gen (Mountain) pairs with Dui (Lake). For example, in the Qian trigram, the top line (上爻) holds Renxu earth, so Renxu is the "Flying God." In the Kun trigram, the top line holds Guiyou metal, so Guiyou is the "Hidden God" of the Qian palace. The same method applies to the other trigrams.

子午持世初為身，丑未持世二為身，寅申持世三為身，卯酉持世四為身，辰戌持世五為身，巳亥持世上為身。占卦人本肖屬為命。

The rule for determining the position of the body line (身爻) depends on the earthly branch contained within the line that holds the world line (世爻). If the world line contains the earthly branch Zi or Wu, then the body line is in the first line. If it contains Chou or Wei, then the body line is in the second line. If it contains Yin or Shen, then the body line is in the third line. If it contains Mao or You, then the body line is in the fourth line. If it contains Chen or Xu, then the body line is in the fifth line. If it contains Si or Hai, then the body line is in the top line. As for the "life" (命), it is determined by the earthly branch corresponding to the person's生肖. The line in the hexagram that contains this branch is considered the life line.

靜以世為主，應為應。一爻動，以本卦動爻為主，變卦動爻為應。二爻動，以上動爻為主，後動爻為應。三爻動，以動爻為主，不動為應。四爻動，以下爻為主，仍看之卦不變爻。五爻動，以靜爻為主，變卦靜爻為應。六爻俱動，以本卦世為主，變卦世為應。凡三爻以上爻動，主事不一，謂之亂動。若亂動時，只以所占爻為主，占財以財為主是也。

The rules for determining the main line are as follows. If none of the six lines are moving, the world line is the main line and the response line is the response. If only one line is moving, the moving line is the main line and the corresponding line in the resulting hexagram is the response. If two lines are moving, the upper moving line is the main line and the later moving line is the response. If three lines are moving, the moving line is the main line and the unmoving line is the response. If four lines are moving, the lowest moving line is the main line, and the unchanging line in the resulting hexagram should also be considered. If five lines are moving, the static line is the main line and the corresponding static line in the resulting hexagram is the response. If all six lines are moving, the world line of the primary hexagram is the main line and the world line of the resulting hexagram is the response. If three or more lines are moving, the matter concerned is not specific, which is called "chaotic movement." When encountering chaotic movement, only the line related to the matter being divined should be taken as the main line. For example, when divining about wealth, the wealth line should be taken as the main line.

生我為父母，我生為子孫，克我為官鬼，我克為妻財，比和為兄弟。常以本宮所屬為我，納甲所屬為彼。假如姤卦初爻，納甲辛丑土，本宮屬金，土生金，為父母也。餘依此。

Determining the Six Relations depends entirely on the generation and overcoming of the Five Phases: what generates me is the Parents爻, what I generate is the Children爻, what overcomes me is the Official Ghost爻, what I overcome is the Wealth爻, and what is the same as me is the Siblings爻. Here, the term "I" always refers to the Five Phase of the native hexagram; "he" refers to the Five Phase of the stem assigned by Najia to that line. For example, in the Gou hexagram (Heaven and Wind), the first line is assigned the stem Xinchou (earth). The Gou hexagram belongs to the Qian palace, and the Qian palace belongs to metal. Earth generates metal, which is "generating me," so this line is determined as the Parents爻. The same method applies to the other lines.

青龍木神，朱雀火神，勾陳土神，白虎金神，玄武水神。甲乙日起青龍，丙丁日起朱雀，戊日起勾陳，己日起騰蛇，庚辛日起白虎，壬癸日起玄武。假如甲乙日起青龍初爻，第二爻朱雀，三爻勾陳，四爻騰蛇，五爻白虎，上爻玄武。持身世及動者。餘依此。

The Six Spirits each belong to one of the Five Phases: the Azure Dragon belongs to Wood, the Vermilion Bird to Fire, the Gou Chen to Earth, the White Tiger to Metal, and the Black Tortoise to Water; theTeng Snake also belongs to Earth, and is of the same type as Gou Chen. To arrange the Six Spirits, first look at the Day Stem of the day when the divination is made. On days with the stem Jia or Yi, the arrangement starts with the Azure Dragon; on days with Bing or Ding, it starts with the Vermilion Bird; on Wu days, it starts with Gou Chen; on Ji days, it starts withTeng Snake; on Geng or Xin days, it starts with the White Tiger; and on Ren or Gui days, it starts with the Black Tortoise. The arrangement proceeds upward from the First Line. For example, on Jia or Yi days, the First Line is the Azure Dragon, the Second Line is the Vermilion Bird, the Third Line is Gou Chen, the Fourth Line isTeng Snake, the Fifth Line is the White Tiger, and the Top Line is the Black Tortoise. When interpreting the divination, it is important to closely examine which of the Six Spirits is on the person's line or the World Line, and which is on the activated line. The same method applies to other Day Stems. The previous table "Example of Day Stem and Six Spirits" combined Wu and Ji days under Gou Chen, which differs slightly from the current method where Ji days start withTeng Snake. In such cases, the current method should be considered correct.

年建天符太歲居，月建青龍為直符，日建傳符宜發動，時辰直事次傳符。假如子年，子爻動，青龍臨子爻，是持水神也。又如正月，寅爻動，為月建青龍也。又如子日，子爻動，朱雀臨之，是傳符持火神也。又如午時，午爻動，臨白虎，是直事持金神也。

The "Four Directs" refer to the deities of the four aspects of time: year, month, day, and hour. The year's builder is called "Heavenly Talisman," where the Supreme Sovereign resides; the month's builder is called "Direct Symbol," with the Azure Dragon in charge; the day's builder is called "Transmitted Symbol," and its activation is most important; the hour is called "Direct Matter," which is secondary to the Transmitted Symbol. For example, if a divination is done in the year of Zi, and the Zi line in the hexagram is activated, with the Azure Dragon present on that Zi line, this is the Heavenly Talisman accompanying the Water God. Another example: if a divination is done in the first lunar month, and the寅 line in the hexagram is activated, this is the month's builder with the Azure Dragon. Another example: if a divination is done on a Zi day, and the Zi line in the hexagram is activated, with the Vermilion Bird present on that Zi line, this is the Transmitted Symbol accompanying the Fire God. Another example: if a divination is done at a Wu hour, and the Wu line in the hexagram is activated, with the White Tiger present on that Wu line, this is the Direct Matter accompanying the Metal God.

父母持世及身宮，旺相文書喜信通，田宅禾苗皆遂意，占身問病卻成凶。父母化父母，文書定相許，化子進人丁，化鬼身遷舉，化財宅長憂，兄弟本身取。子孫持世為福神，事成憂散穀財榮，占胎問病重重吉，謁貴求官反不亨。子孫化子孫，人情兩稱情，化父田蠶旺，化財加倍榮，化鬼憂產病，兄弟必相爭。

When the parents' line holds the world line or the self line: if the parents' line is prosperous and strong, it indicates smooth official documents, good news, and success in matters of property and crops; however, when asking about oneself or illness, it becomes ominous, because the parents' line restrains the children's line, which is the god of fortune. If the parents' line is activated and transforms into another parents' line, the requested official documents will definitely be approved; if it transforms into the children's line, there will be a new birth in the family; if it transforms into the official ghost line, there will be promotion or recommendation; if it transforms into the wealth line, the head of the family will have worries; if it transforms into the siblings line, the matter will affect oneself directly. When the children's line holds the world line, this line is the god of fortune, indicating that matters will be successfully completed, worries will be dispelled, and grain and wealth will flourish; when asking about pregnancy or illness, it is a very auspicious omen; however, when seeking an audience with a nobleman or pursuing an official position, it will be unsmooth, because the children's line restrains the official ghost line, which affects official luck. If the children's line is activated and transforms into another children's line, both parties will be satisfied; if it transforms into the parents' line, crops and sericulture will flourish; if it transforms into the wealth line, wealth will double; if it transforms into the official ghost line, there will be worries about childbirth and illness; if it transforms into the siblings line, there will be disputes.

官鬼持世必得官，文書印信兩相看，占婚問病俱凶犯，破宅傷財身不榮。官化官為祿，求官宜疾速，化財占病凶，化父文書逐，化子必傷官，化兄家不睦。陰為妻妾陽為財，持世持身總稱懷，財穀田蠶收百倍，若占病產鬼為胎。妻財化妻財，錢龍入宅來，化官憂戚戚，化子笑哈哈，化父宜家宅，化兄當破財。

The official ghost hexagram holds the world position; seeking official position will surely result in obtaining it, and one should also refer to the documents and seals governed by the parents hexagram. However, when divining marriage or illness, it is an ominous sign, indicating the destruction of the dwelling, loss of wealth, and lack of honor for oneself. If the official ghost hexagram moves and transforms into another official ghost hexagram, it signifies a position of honor, and seeking official position should be done quickly; if it transforms into the wife's wealth hexagram, it is ominous for illness; if it transforms into the parents hexagram, documents can be obtained; if it transforms into the children hexagram, official position will be harmed; if it transforms into the siblings hexagram, there will be discord within the family. The wife's wealth hexagram, if yin, signifies wife or concubine, if yang, signifies wealth. Whether it holds the world position or the body position, it generally brings satisfaction. When divining about grain, rice, mulberry, or silk, one can expect a hundredfold return; but when divining illness or childbirth, the official ghost hexagram should be regarded as the root of illness or the fetal energy. If the wife's wealth hexagram moves and transforms into itself, it is like a dragon of wealth entering the house; if it transforms into the official ghost hexagram, there will be worry and sorrow; if it transforms into the children hexagram, there will be joy and happiness; if it transforms into the parents hexagram, it is favorable for the family dwelling; if it transforms into the siblings hexagram, there will certainly be loss of wealth.

陽為兄弟陰姊妹，所問所謀皆退悔，縱使福神同位臨，到頭不遂空勞費。兄弟化兄弟，凡占無所利，化父父憂驚，化財財未遂，化官身有災，化子卻如意。

The brother's line belongs to the Yang trigram and represents brothers, while the Yin trigram represents sisters. Whenever there is a question or a plan, it indicates retreat and regret. Even if the child line, which is a blessing, joins with the brother's line, in the end, it still cannot be fulfilled, resulting in wasted effort. If the brother's line moves and transforms into another brother's line, there is no benefit in any matter. If it transforms into the parent's line, the parents will face worry. If it transforms into the wealth line, wealth will not be obtained. If it transforms into the official ghost line, there will be misfortune to oneself. If it transforms into the child line, everything will go smoothly.

發動青龍萬事通，進財進祿福無窮，臨凶遇殺都無礙，惟忌臨金與落空。朱雀交重文印旺，殺神相併謾勞功，是非口舌皆因此，持水臨空卻利公。勾陳發動憂田土，累歲迍邅為殺逢，持木落空方脫灑，縱然安靜也迷濛。

The Azure Dragon moves, bringing smoothness in all affairs, gaining wealth and official favor, with boundless good fortune; even if it is accompanied by凶爻 or meetsInauspicious Sha, there is no harm; the only two things to be cautious about are: first, the Azure Dragon, being of wood, is overcome by the metal爻; second, falling into the empty亡. When the Vermilion Bird moves, it indicates prosperity in documents and seals; if it is accompanied byInauspicious Sha, it results in futile labor. Most disputes and quarrels in the world are caused by the Vermilion Bird; however, if the Vermilion Bird holds the water爻 or falls into the empty亡, it is actually favorable for litigation. When Gou Chen moves, it indicates worry about land and property matters; if it meetsInauspicious Sha, there will be continuous difficulties and obstacles for several years. Only when Gou Chen holds the wood爻 (wood overcomes earth) or falls into the empty亡 can one be relieved and free; otherwise, even if it remains still, the matter remains unclear and confusing.

騰蛇發動憂榮碎，怪夢陰魔暗裡逢，持木落空方始吉，交重旺相必然凶。白虎交重驚怪事，求官臨鬼反豐隆，持金世殺妨人口，遇火加空卻不同。玄武動搖多闇昧，若臨旺相賊交攻，上爻相併邪無犯，帶殺依然咎在躬。

The snake moves and activates, indicating troubles and worries from trivial matters, and often encountering strange dreams and disturbances from evil spirits in secret. It turns favorable only if it is accompanied by a wood line or falls into an empty position. If the snake becomes a moving line and is prosperous and strong, it definitely indicates misfortune. The white tiger moving indicates unexpected and alarming events; however, for those seeking official positions, if the white tiger is associated with the official ghost line, their official career will be prosperous. If the white tiger holds a metal line and is combined withInauspicious Sha (malevolent influences) on the world line, it will harm the family members. If it meets a fire line (fire overcoming metal) and also falls into an empty position, the situation is different. The black tortoise moving often indicates ambiguous and unclear matters; if the black tortoise is prosperous and strong, it indicates theft and attacks from thieves. If the black tortoise is on the top line and combined with other lines, evil spirits cannot invade; however, as long as it is accompanied by malevolent influences, misfortune will still fall upon oneself.

年建為天符。子年子爻動方斷。假如子年子爻動，臨青龍木神也。天符青龍木，發動加官祿，在外盜資財，內搖憂眷屬。天符朱雀火，文書非小可，殺並是非生，內搖家事瑣。天符勾陳土，田蠶十分許，殺並事勾連，騰蛇同類取。天符白虎金，經營必稱心，殺神如並者，禍患定來侵。天符玄武水，陰私並賊鬼，若與吉人交，變憂而成喜。

The annual stem is called "Heavenly Talisman," and it must be activated by the branch of the current year. For example, in a year of Zi, if the Zi trigram is activated in the divination, and the Azure Dragon is also present on that trigram, this is called the Heavenly Talisman appearing with the Wood God. If the Heavenly Talisman is the Azure Dragon, which belongs to Wood, its activation indicates promotion and increased wealth. If it moves in the outer trigram, it indicates loss of wealth outside the home. If it moves in the inner trigram, it indicates worries within the family. If the Heavenly Talisman is the Vermilion Bird, which belongs to Fire, it indicates serious matters related to documents and correspondence. If it is combined withInauspicious Sha (evil spirits), disputes will arise. If it moves in the inner trigram, there will be many trivial matters at home. If the Heavenly Talisman is Gou Chen, which belongs to Earth, it indicates great hope for crops, silkworms, and sericulture. If it is combined withInauspicious Sha, the matter will become complicated. Since theTeng Snake (Teng Sha) also belongs to Earth, the interpretation is the same. If the Heavenly Talisman is the White Tiger, which belongs to Metal, it indicates success in business and trade. However, if it is combined withInauspicious Sha, misfortune will certainly come. If the Heavenly Talisman is the Black Tortoise, which belongs to Water, it indicates private matters and the possibility of theft and ghosts. However, if it is combined with a good deity, it will turn worry into joy.

月建為直符。月建為青龍，動則不雷同，內搖人口旺，外動祿財豐。前三為朱雀，文書不待約，吉助有升遷，殺交遭繫縛。後三為玄武，所謀皆不許，在外損錢財，在家憂宅主。對宮為白虎，凡占當忌取，外動有憂驚，休囚禍更深。後一為勾陳，連速碎事侵，旺相尤為咎，休囚禍更深。騰蛇正起辰，逐月逆流行，內外皆為咎，空亡卻稱情。

The Month Builder is called "Straight Symbol." The branch of the Month Builder is where the Azure Dragon resides; when it moves, its effects differ from the usual. If it moves within the Inner Trigram, it indicates prosperity and abundance in the household. If it moves within the Outer Trigram, it signifies wealth and abundance in salary and money. The three trigrams before the Azure Dragon are the Vermilion Bird: it indicates that official documents will arrive without delay; with the assistance of auspicious spirits, there will be promotion; if it combines withInauspicious Sha (malevolent killing), there will be disaster such as imprisonment or bondage. The three trigrams after the Azure Dragon are the Black Tortoise: all matters planned will not be approved, there will be loss of money outside the home, and the household head will have worries. The trigram opposite the Azure Dragon is the White Tiger: any divination should avoid it. If it moves within the Outer Trigram, there will be sudden worries and anxieties. If it is also weak and without strength, the disaster will be deeper. The trigram immediately after the Azure Dragon is Gou Chen: it indicates continuous small troubles that will invade, causing trouble especially when it is prosperous and strong, and even more serious when it is weak and confined. TheTeng Snake (Coiling Snake) begins at the辰 (Chen) position in January and moves backward each month; whether it moves within the Inner or Outer Trigram, it brings misfortune, but if it falls into an empty position, it will be favorable.

日建為傳符。子日子爻動方斷。日建加青龍，財祿喜重重，朱雀宜施用，勾陳事未通，騰蛇多怪異，白虎破財凶，玄武陰私撓，應在日辰中。

The day's established branch is called "Chuan Fu." It also requires that the yao corresponding to the day's earthly branch becomes active in order to use it for divination. If the day's branch is overlaid by Qing Long, it indicates abundant wealth and auspiciousness; if overlaid by Zhu Que, it is favorable for taking action; if overlaid by Gou Chen, matters are not yet smooth; if overlaid by Teng Sha, there are often strange occurrences; if overlaid by Bai Hu, it signifies financial loss and misfortune; if overlaid by Xuan Wu, it is disturbed by secret affairs. Whenever these events occur, they all happen on the day corresponding to the day's branch.

問喜宜天喜，消憂天解星，大殺休施用，咸池莫問婚。病遇天醫瘥，囚因血忌刑，求雨占雷殺，占身吉殺寧。往亡休出入，負結好饒人，三丘並五墓，飛廉及浴盆。四般休問病，占孕亦憂驚，公訟忌刑害，亡劫事難伸。

When asking about joyful matters, it is most favorable to see "Heavenly Joy." To resolve worries, look at the star "Heavenly Release." If encountering "Great Killer," one should not take any action. If encountering "Salty Pool," one should not inquire about marriage. If a disease occurs and "Heavenly Doctor" is encountered, the illness can be cured. If imprisoned or detained, it is often due to "Blood Taboo" adding punishment. To pray for rain, look at "Thunder Killer." If one's own situation encounters "Good Killer," then safety and peace are assured. When encountering "Going to Death," it is not suitable to go out or travel far. When encountering "Negative Knot," it is best to be generous and forgiving towards others. The four types of凶杀 (evil stars): "Three Hills," "Five Tombs," "Flying廉," and "Bathing Basin," when encountered in matters of illness, one should not ask about them, and they also indicate worry and alarm in matters of pregnancy. In legal disputes, the most忌 (to be avoided) are刑 (punishment) and害 (harm). If encountering "Death God" or "Plunder Killer," the matter will be difficult to resolve.

遇死憂凶事，逢生吉慶生，三合與六合，內外總光亨。天德與月德，萬事得圓成，吉凶隨例斷，慎勿順人情。凶處忌有氣，吉處忌凶神，子旬無戌亥，六甲細推輪。

When the hexagram lines meet "Death Qi," one should worry about misfortune; encountering "Life Qi" brings auspiciousness naturally. If the Triple Harmony and Six Harmony support, whether inner or outer trigrams, everything will be bright and smooth. Seeing "Heavenly Virtue" and "Monthly Virtue," all matters can be completed smoothly. In summary, both good and bad outcomes should be judged according to established rules, and one must not say flattering words according to the seeker's wishes. The worst thing about bad situations is that they gain strength and dominance, while good situations should not be disturbed by malevolent forces. For example, when casting a hexagram on the Jiazi decade, the branches Wu and Hai are considered empty; the empty branches for each of the sixty Jiazi decades should be determined in the same way.

乾為天象震雷龍，坎兌為陰巽起風，坤艮往來無雨順，火山爻動日和融。乍雨乍晴離坎並，半陰半晦兌離重，殺臨未濟終須濟，既濟雖陰雨不充。巽入坎來風後雨，凡臨坤位細濛濛，畜過密雲終不雨，隨臨有雨歲時豐。天地不交膏不降，陰陽方並謝天工，八純火動游魂木，火傘炎張日大空。地火明夷天色晦，火雷噬嗑電光紅，離爻帶殺晴明斷，朱雀飛揚事一同。

To predict whether the weather will be clear, rainy, snowy, or stormy, first examine the hexagram. If the hexagram contains Qian, it indicates a clear sky; if it contains Zhen, it suggests thunder, lightning, and the presence of clouds and dragons. Kan and Dui indicate cloudy weather, while Xun suggests wind. If Kun and Gen are present and interact, there will be no rain and the weather will be harmonious. If the line of Li (Fire) and Gen (Mountain) are activated, the sun will be warm and pleasant. If both Kan and Li are present, it will rain at times and clear at others. If Dui and Li overlap, half the sky will be cloudy and the other half dark and gloomy. IfInauspicious Sha (evil influences) appear in the hexagram of Wei Ji (The Not Yet Completed), it will eventually turn into Ji Ji (The Completed) and clear up. If Ji Ji is obtained, although it is cloudy, the rain will be light. If Xun enters and Kan follows, there will first be wind and then rain. If the hexagram is on Kun, it will be a light drizzle. If the hexagram is Da Xu or Xiao Xu (Great Accumulation or Small Accumulation), it is like the hexagram statement "dense clouds without rain," and it will not rain. If the hexagram is Su (Following), there will be rain, and the harvest will be abundant. If heaven and earth do not interact, it is the image of Po (Obstruction), and there will be no rain. When yin and yang energies just begin to interact, it is appropriate to thank heaven for its creation. If among the eight pure hexagrams the line of fire is activated, or among the wandering hexagrams the line of wood is activated, it indicates a bright red sun, intense heat, and a clear sky. If the hexagram is Ming Yi (Bright Abode), the sky will be dark and gloomy. If the hexagram is Shi Ke (Breaking Through), there will be bright flashes of lightning. If the line of Li (Fire) carries evil influences, it indicates clear weather; if Zhu Que (Vermilion Bird) is activated, the effect is the same.

大有不重天朗朗，同人安靜日烘烘，晉有龍爻終雨少，純無雷殺只雲濃。龍動澤山咸大吉，虎交天水訟無功，勾陳帶土來持世，縱有陰雲不濟農。玄武水爻霖復作，青龍木德澤無窮，坎宮雷殺交重並，大雨傾盆霹靂攻。最喜子辰來坎位，卻嫌戌午到離宮，陽重陰現陰須準，陰變陽爻陽不從。壬丙電光禾穀潤，乙庚雷雨歲興隆，應身白虎成虛設，競世勾陳更不終。玄武克身收稻穀，火神傷世損田公，純陽安靜多應旱，雖動游魂理不容。

Obtaining the hexagram Da You (Fire in Heaven) with no lines moving, the sky is clear and bright; obtaining the hexagram Tong Ren (Heavenly Fire) with all six lines still, the sun shines warmly. Obtaining the hexagram Jin (Progress) with the line of Qinglong present, there will be little rain; among the eight pure hexagrams, if there is no thunder and lightning, it is only heavy clouds covering the sky. If Qinglong moves and meets Xian (Lake over Mountain), it is very auspicious; if Baihu moves and meets Song (Water in Heaven), seeking rain will be in vain. If Gou Chen comes with a line of earth to hold the world line, even if the sky is full of dark clouds, it will not help the farming. If Xuanwu is present with a line of water, there will be more rain; if Qinglong has the virtue of wood, its benefits are endless. If the line of thunder and lightning in the Kan palace meets the moving line, it indicates heavy rain and thunder clashing. Most favorable is when the branches Zi and Chen arrive at the Kan position; most disliked is when the branches Xu and Wu fall into the Li palace. If a yang line moves again and a yin line appears, the rain will certainly come; if a yin line changes to yang, the sunny weather will not come. If the heavenly stems include Ren and Bing, there will be lightning and the crops will be well watered; if the stems include Yi and Geng, there will be timely thunder and rain, leading to a good harvest. If Baihu is on the responding line or the body line, it is like a false sign; if Gou Chen competes with the world line, the matter will not have a result. If Xuanwu overcomes the body line, the rice will be harvested; if the fire god harms the world line, it will damage the farmers' fields. If all six lines are pure yang and still, it usually indicates drought; even if some lines move, if it is a ghostly hexagram, it is not reasonable for rain to come.

內外相生奇合偶，霧密大作物亨通，雷殺水神雙入坎，不憂無雨卻憂洪。火神變水龍加虎，東畔才陰西見虹，不動龍爻玄武水，徒勞舉目望蒼穹。欲占雨信期何日，水旺龍生身對沖，龍水身雷俱不動，九江四瀆被天封。艮火相交可決晴，水宮大旺日光明，占晴但看庚交甲，止雨休教甲變庚。庚甲互交龍虎助，連連大雨及車轟，火神雷殺加離位，一聲霹靂赤天晴。

The inner and outer trigrams support each other, with odd-numbered lines matching even-numbered ones, indicating thick fog rising and all things flowing smoothly. If the thunder god and water god both fall into the Kan trigram, there is no need to worry about no rain, but rather to worry about a great flood. When the fire god turns into water, and the Azure Dragon is joined by the White Tiger, it indicates that the east has just turned cloudy, while the west shows rainbows. If the Azure Dragon line remains still and the Black Tortoise water also remains still, then it is just looking up at the sky in vain. To determine the day when rain will fall, the expected day is when the water line is prosperous and strong, when the Azure Dragon is supported, and when the body line meets a clash. If the Azure Dragon, water line, body line, and thunder god all remain still, then the nine rivers and four great rivers are sealed by heaven, and no rain will fall. When the mountain and fire interact, it can be determined that the weather will clear. When the water trigram is very strong, it actually indicates a bright sunny day. To predict clear weather, look for when the metal line of Geng moves and transforms into the wood line of Jia. To stop rain, do not allow the wood line of Jia to transform into the metal line of Geng. When Geng and Jia interact and transform, with the help of the Azure Dragon and White Tiger, it indicates continuous heavy rain with thunder like the sound of a chariot. When the fire god and thunder god are placed on the Li trigram, after one thunderclap, the red sun appears, and the sky clears.

應為種子世為田，世應相生獲十全，種子克田猶小吉，世來克應儉時年。財爻旺相禾豐足，發動子孫為大福，更得青龍天喜重，高低遠近皆成熟。子孫發動合天符，財與龍爻出現扶，無殺無沖倉廩實，若逢三耗卻成虛。交重官鬼應難斷，金鬼蝗蟲火鬼旱，大殺同宮總不收，發同喜神猶減半。

When divining the harvest of crops, the Response Line represents the seeds and the World Line represents the field. If the World Line and the Response Line mutually support each other, the harvest will be complete. If the seed line overcomes the field line, it is still a minor good omen. If the World Line overcomes the Response Line, it indicates a poor harvest. If the Wealth line is prosperous and strong, the crops will be abundant. If the Children line is activated, it is a great blessing. If the Azure Dragon and Heavenly Joy are repeatedly present, then both high and low fields, near and far, will mature. If the Children line is activated and combines with the year's heavenly talisman, and the Wealth line and Azure Dragon line also support, as long as there are no凶杀 or冲破, the granaries will certainly be full. If the "Three Wastes" spirits appear, the harvest will be lost. If the Official Ghost line is activated, the harvest is uncertain: the Metal Ghost indicates locusts, the Fire Ghost indicates drought; if the Great Kill and the Ghost are in the same palace, there will be no harvest at all; even if there are auspicious spirits at the same time, the harvest will be reduced by half.

鬼爻扶鬼水來傷，土木同宮卻不妨，鬼落為財宜晚種，財交父母兩重祥。官爻旺相渾無望，鬼化空亡事反常，財在外重遲下種，龍來內發早移秧。六爻安靜禾平善，亂動青苗必受殃，妻財二耗同時同，雖熟應知半入倉。內外相生無殺害，七分成熟莫商量，財來金舍收千倍，財入空亡便莫望。

If a ghost爻 supports another ghost爻, and water爻 comes torestrain it, the harm becomes more severe. If earth ghost and wood ghost are in the same palace, it is not a problem. When a ghost爻 falls and becomes a wealth爻, it is suitable to plant later. If the wealth爻 moves and transforms into a parent爻, it is doubly auspicious. If the official ghost爻 is prosperous and strong, there is no hope of a harvest. If a ghost爻 becomes empty, the situation will reverse. If the wealth爻 is repeated in the outer trigram, planting should be delayed. If the azure dragon in the inner trigram is activated, planting should be done early. If all six lines are quiet, the crops will grow smoothly. If all six lines are active, the young shoots will certainly suffer. If the wealth爻 appears together with the second loss god, even if the crops mature, only half will enter the granary. If the inner and outer trigrams generate each other and there are no harmful influences, seven parts of the harvest are certain. If the wealth爻 falls into the metal position, it can yield a thousandfold profit. If the wealth爻 enters empty, there is no need to expect anything further.

龍與子孫同類取，克身持世穀無疆，若逢朱雀交重惡，白虎當頭總不良。玄武更加官鬼並，雖收一半屬官糧，火天大有都成熟，地火明夷盡地荒。天地不交休指望，陰陽和合好收藏，吉凶悔吝分明斷，立位旁通更審詳。

The Azure Dragon and the Children line can be treated as the same category; when they overcome the self line or hold the world line, it indicates an abundant harvest of grain. If the Vermilion Bird is active, it is a sign of misfortune; if the White Tiger is present, it is generally not a good omen. If the Black Tortoise joins with the Official Ghost, even if half the harvest is obtained, it will be taken as taxes by the officials. If the hexagram Da You (Fire over Heaven) appears, the crops will all be ripe; if the hexagram Ming Yi (Earth over Fire) appears, the land will be barren. If the hexagram Pu (Heaven and Earth not communicating) is encountered, there is no hope for a harvest; if yin and yang are harmonious, it is the right time for reaping and storing. The outcomes of good fortune, bad fortune, regret, and difficulty must be clearly discerned, and also follow the method of the "Six Positions Example" to examine each position carefully and thoroughly.

住宅休占火澤睽，鬼臨人口定分離，龍交大壯人財旺，虎並同人宅舍衰。二畜見龍財帛進，殺交兩過棟樑摧，貴持震巽生財本，喜入風雷立福基。離坎交重宜謹慎，艮坤安靜莫遷移，戶無徭役占逢貴，家有餘糧卜得頤。田宅豐隆因大有，血財傷損為明夷，乾坤旺相增人口，澤地生成聚寶資。

When divining about a residence, the hexagram Kui (Fire泽Kui) is most to be avoided; if the official ghost爻 is on the position representing the head of the household, the whole family will certainly scatter. If the Azure Dragon moves and the hexagram Da Zhuang (Thunder天Great Strength) is obtained, people and wealth will flourish. If the White Tiger and the hexagram Tong Ren (Heavenly Fire) appear together, the house will decline. If the hexagrams Da Xu (Great Accumulation) and Xiao Xu (Small Accumulation) are obtained and the Azure Dragon is present, wealth will enter the house. IfInauspicious Sha (evil spirits) move and the hexagrams Da Guo (Great Excess) and Xiao Guo (Small Excess) appear, the main beams will break. If the Nobleman is on the positions of Zhen (Thunder) or Xun (Wind), it can generate capital. If Heavenly Joy falls into the realm of Xun Wind or Zhen Thunder, it can establish the foundation of blessings. If the hexagrams Li (Fire) and Kan (Water) move and overlap, one should be cautious in actions. If the hexagrams Gen (Mountain) and Kun (Earth) are still, one should not move. When divining about household servants, if the hexagram contains the Nobleman, there will be no labor service. If the hexagram Yi (Nourishment) is obtained, there will be surplus grain at home. Abundance in land and property is due to the hexagram Da You (Heavenly Fire). Loss of livestock and wealth is due to the hexagram Ming Yi (Bright Illumination). If the hexagrams Qian (Heaven) and Kun (Earth) are prosperous and strong, the family will add members. If the hexagram Cui (Gathering) is obtained, it indicates the accumulation of wealth.

革鼎長男能幹事，晉升宅長有操持，妻財內旺為財斷，官鬼爻興作怪推。木鬼壽棺停有日，金官硬物藏多時，休囚銅鐵皆先定，旺相金銀盡預知。水鬼井池中出現，土官牆壁內偷窺，火官內動無他事，古器多年再發輝。克世克身都不用，生身生世始堪為，水財內旺宜穿井，內發土財堪作池。

The hexagrams of Change and Cauldron indicate that the eldest son in the family is capable of doing things. The hexagrams of Progress and Ascension suggest that the head of the family has ability and control. If the wife and wealth line is in the inner trigram and is prosperous and strong, it indicates that there is wealth in the family. If the official ghost line is active, it suggests there is something strange within the house. A ghost line of wood type indicates that there has been a body for some time. A ghost line of metal type indicates that there is something hard buried for a long time. If the metal ghost line is weak and confined, the buried object is likely copper or iron, which can be determined in advance. If the metal ghost line is prosperous and strong, the buried object is gold and silver, which can also be known in advance. A ghost line of water type indicates that the strange thing comes from the well or pond. A ghost line of earth type indicates that something is peeking out from the wall. If a fire type ghost line is active in the inner trigram, there is no other matter, only that an old object has regained its luster. Any of these lines that harm the world line or the body line should not be used. Only those that support the body line and the world line are useful. If a water type wife and wealth line is prosperous and strong in the inner trigram, it is suitable to dig a well. If the inner trigram has an earth type wife and wealth line that is active, it is suitable to build a pond.

金旺妻財金玉進，火財內發火光飛，木財到底宜營造，若犯空亡總是非。子孫空亡家絕後，父母空亡宅必危，父母身子都旺相，人財資益莫猜疑。更兼天喜青龍助，富貴康寧天賜伊。

The wife wealth hexagram of metal is prosperous and strong, indicating the arrival of gold and jade; the wife wealth hexagram of fire, when active within the inner trigram, suggests strange occurrences of fiery lights; the wife wealth hexagram of wood is most suitable for building houses. If any of these are afflicted by empty亡, they all turn into disputes. If the children hexagram falls into empty亡, the family may face extinction; if the parents hexagram falls into empty亡, the house is certainly in danger. When the parents hexagram, the self hexagram, and the children hexagram are all prosperous and strong, the population and wealth will steadily increase, which is without doubt. Furthermore, if the heavenly joy and azure dragon assist, it is a blessing from heaven granting him wealth, honor, health, and peace.

遷居先以動爻求，動爻旺相決無憂，初爻旺相鄉村吉，二爻旺相好居州。三爻市井四坊鎮，五近京師事最優，上爻好向山林住，龍扶子動獲祥休。白虎當頭休妄動，騰蛇纏足莫彺謀，朱雀交重防口舌，玄武遷移被賊偷。朱雀又臨官鬼位，官司口舌有來由，那更克身無主世，身遭重厄訟遭囚。

When divining about moving house, one should first look at the moving line. If the moving line is prosperous and strong, the move will certainly proceed without worry. If the first line is prosperous and strong, it is suitable to live in the countryside; if the second line is prosperous and strong, it is suitable to live in a city; the third line indicates living in a market area; the fourth line indicates living in a town; the fifth line is near the capital, which is the best; the top line suggests living in the mountains and forests. If the Azure Dragon supports and the Children line is active, one will gain good fortune and peace. If the White Tiger is present, one should not act recklessly; if the Snake is entangled at the first line, one should not make reckless plans; if the Vermilion Bird is active, one should beware of disputes. The Black Tortoise indicates the possibility of theft during the move. If the Vermilion Bird is also on the Official Ghost line, legal disputes and verbal conflicts will arise; and since it also controls the personal line, and the World Line has no support, one will suffer serious misfortune and be involved in legal troubles.

六爻安靜休搬動，亂動移居又不休，外克內兮應克世，舊宅不如新宅利。內克外兮世克應，到底只宜居舊地，世應相生內外和，守舊遷居總如意。若教動處落空亡，不利遷移利守常，五世游魂搬則利，內爻旺相住無妨。忽然內外俱衰敗，守則災危搬受殃，鬼化子孫移富貴，財爻化鬼住安康。

If all six lines are still, do not move; if all six lines are active, moving will not stop. If the outer trigram overcomes the inner trigram and the response line overcomes the world line, the old house is less favorable than the new. If the inner trigram overcomes the outer trigram and the world line overcomes the response line, in the end it is better to stay in the old place. If the world and response lines mutually generate and the inner and outer trigrams are harmonious, then whether to stay or move will be satisfactory. If the activated line falls into an empty position, it is unfavorable for moving and favorable for staying in the current place. If the fifth world line or a wandering soul line appears, moving is favorable. If the lines of the inner trigram are prosperous and strong, staying put is also acceptable. If both inner and outer trigrams suddenly decline, staying will bring disaster and moving will bring misfortune. If the official ghost line transforms into the children line, moving will bring wealth and status; if the wealth line transforms into the official ghost line, staying will bring peace and well-being.

若占墳塚靜為強，發動之時便反常，初世出官為大吉，二爻持世次為良。三爻主世平平穩，四爻半吉保安康，五與上爻俱永好，游魂後代必為商。歸魂猶自三分好，若值八純全有妨，為甚乾坤無忌諱，高低無物不包藏。未葬之先亡在外，既葬須知內是亡，內外相生為大吉，比和決定福難量。

Divination for selecting a burial site favors a quiet hexagram, indicating strength; once a line becomes active, things will become abnormal. If the world line is in the first line, it signifies that descendants will hold official positions, which is highly auspicious; if it is in the second line, it is slightly less favorable. If the world line is in the third line, it is stable; if in the fourth line, it is half auspicious and ensures security; if in the fifth or top line, it is long-lasting and favorable. If the hexagram is a wandering soul hexagram, the descendants will certainly engage in commerce; if it is a returning soul hexagram, there will still be some benefit. If an eight pure hexagram appears, it will cause complete obstruction. Why are the hexagrams Qian and Kun not considered ominous? Because Qian and Kun are vast and encompassing, including everything within them. Before burial, the deceased is outside, so the outer trigram represents the deceased; after burial, the inner trigram becomes the representation of the deceased. When the inner and outer trigrams mutually generate, it is highly auspicious; when they are harmonious, the blessings are immeasurable.

殺交內外還相剋，損宅破財災幾場，青龍旺相來持世，管取存亡獲吉祥。乾坤不動墳安穩，龍喜交重家道昌，五墓劫神傷子息，三丘陰殺損妻房。世旺生身官入墓，子孫代代入朝堂，殺臨父母憂家長，劫犯陰爻宅母當。鬼爻不動亡人吉，身位無交祭主康，破家只為財為鬼，發福多因陰及陽。沖破臨身終有礙，合神持世卻無妨。

Heavenly Joy andInauspicious Sha are in motion, with the inner and outer hexagrams mutually controlling each other, indicating loss of property and damage to the dwelling, with multiple misfortunes. The Azure Dragon comes in a prosperous and strong state to hold the world line, ensuring that both the living and the dead will receive good fortune. The hexagrams of Heaven and Earth remain still, indicating stability of the tomb; when the Azure Dragon and Heavenly Joy interact and overlap, the family will flourish. The Five Tombs and劫杀 harm the sons' hexagram, indicating loss of descendants; the three hills and阴杀 harm the wife's hexagram, indicating harm to the wife. The world line is prosperous and strong, generating the body hexagram and the official ghost hexagram, which enter the tomb, allowing descendants to rise to official positions in generations.Inauspicious Sha is on the parents' hexagram, indicating worry for the head of the family;劫杀 affects the yin hexagram, indicating misfortune for the main wife. The official ghost hexagram remains still, indicating good fortune for the deceased; the body hexagram position remains unmoved, indicating health for the person performing the sacrifice. The downfall of the family is due to the hexagrams of wealth and official ghost causing trouble, while prosperity mostly results from the mutual support of the yin and yang hexagrams. When the breaking hexagram is on the body hexagram, there will be obstacles; when the Six Harmony hexagram holds the world line, it will be beneficial instead.

陰交為穴要先知，初與二爻宜葬基，三爻與四平平地，五六高原信可宜。穴是金爻宜土白，火爻土赤更無疑，土穴畢竟知黃土，若是水穴黑淄泥。木穴土青須有準，木神旺相有拫梯，水爻旺相須逢水，土旺應知石是奇。旺在火炎須有器，金爻旺相物光輝，福德青龍兼併者，斷然嘉瑞應臨期。

The place where a yao moves is the site of a grave, and this point must be clearly understood. If the site is in the first and second lines, it is suitable for burial. If it is in the third and fourth lines, it is an ordinary place. If it is in the fifth and top lines, it is suitable for high ground. If the grave is of the metal yao, the soil should be white. If it is of the fire yao, the soil must be red. If it is of the earth yao, it is certainly yellow soil. If it is of the water yao, the soil is black and muddy. If it is of the wood yao, the soil is bluish. The presence of the wood yao in a prosperous state indicates that there are tree roots forming a ladder-like structure in the grave. If the water yao is prosperous, there must be water in the grave. If the earth yao is prosperous, there should be strange stones inside. If the fire yao is prosperous, there must be objects in the grave. If the metal yao is prosperous, the hidden objects will shine brightly. If the yao of children and fortune virtue and the azure dragon are both present, it is certain that there will be good omens that will come true on schedule.

青龍持世地曲屈，前有木橋兼水池；朱雀持世鳳凰勢，近路周圍有樹依；勾陳持世地拱揖，四畔有山前後圍；騰蛇持世彎弓勢，左右伏山低又齊；白虎持世南流水，玄武尖峰朝地基。卦無父母墳荒廢，卦無官鬼不宜官，……卻是尋常平穩地。卦無丑未少羊牛，卦無戌酉雞犬亡。十二爻神依此例，窮通休旺細消詳。

Using the Six Spirits to observe the terrain, if the Azure Dragon holds the world, the terrain is winding and curved, with a wooden bridge and a pond in front. If the Vermilion Bird holds the world, the terrain resembles a phoenix spreading its wings, close to the road, with trees surrounding it on all sides. If Gou Chen holds the world, the terrain looks like two hands clasped in greeting, with mountains on all sides and hills in front and behind. If the Coiling Snake holds the world, the terrain resembles a curved bow, with small hills on both sides that are low and neat. If the White Tiger holds the world, there is flowing water to the south; if the Black Tortoise holds the world, there is a sharp peak facing the land base. If the hexagram lacks the parents' yao, the tomb is abandoned; if it lacks the official ghost yao, descendants are not suitable for official positions (the original text here is suspected to be missing a sentence). It is just an ordinary and level piece of land. If the hexagram lacks the branches Chou and Wei, there are few cattle and sheep; if it lacks the branches Xu and You, there are few chickens and dogs. All the yao of the twelve branches should be interpreted in this way, and their prosperity and decline, as well as their strength and weakness, should be carefully explained.

凡占身世要先知，神殺交重次第推，身旺龍池多吉慶，身衰虎並定猶疑。子孫持世明時喜，兄弟臨身悔且危，切忌勾陳連鬼旺，卻宜天喜與財依。妻財陽位財豐厚，陰位妻財妻子宜，祿馬貴人三合併，臨身妙義福根基。子孫發動添人口，父母交重官可期，卦內為身外為命，身命比和任意為。

When divining about a person's life and circumstances, first clarify the main outline, then examine the interactions and movements of various auspicious deities and malevolent forces in order. If the life line is strong and accompanied by the Azure Dragon or other auspicious deities, there will be many good fortune. However, if the life line is weak and accompanied by the White Tiger, matters will be delayed and uncertain. If the children line holds the main position, it is a good omen for a peaceful era. If the siblings line is connected to the main position, it brings regret and danger. Most dangerous is when the Gou Chen and official ghost lines are both strong and prosperous. Most favorable is when the Heavenly Joy and wealth lines are connected. If the wealth line is in a yang position, it indicates wealth; if in a yin position, it is suitable for spouse and children. When the禄神, Post Horse, Nobleman, and Triple Harmony all join together and appear on the main line, it is most auspicious, forming the foundation of good fortune. If the children line is activated, the family will gain more members; if the parents line is activated, official positions can be expected. The inner three lines of the hexagram represent the body, and the outer three lines represent destiny. When body and destiny are harmonious, everything will proceed smoothly.

世為身兮應為命，世應相生更是奇，世命應身刑又克，不傷自己即傷妻。妻財不現財無聚，卦沒子孫難立兒，更將八卦推心屬，內坎機圓心事足。內兌柔和有主張，內乾果斷無私曲，離明坤厚性融通，巽順艮卑謙自牧。身命但能依此推，青龍天喜皆為福。

Another method is to take the world line as the self and the response line as the destiny. If the world and response lines mutually generate, it is an extraordinary good omen. If the world line is taken as the destiny and the response line as the self, and the two lines are both in conflict and in conflict, then it is either harming oneself or harming the wife. If the wealth line is not present, wealth cannot be retained; if the children line is absent from the hexagram, it is difficult to have children and raise a family. Further, one should use the eight trigrams to determine the person's nature: if the inner trigram is Kan, the mind is flexible and the heart's desires are fulfilled; if it is Dui, the nature is gentle yet decisive; if it is Qian, the character is decisive and upright, without private bias; if it is Li, the mind is clear and intelligent; if it is Kun, the nature is sincere and the disposition is harmonious; if it is Xun, the character is harmonious and easygoing; if it is Gen, the character is humble and self-restrained. When divining about one's body and destiny, following this method is sufficient. If the Azure Dragon and Heavenly Joy are present on the lines, they are considered auspicious.

立本先推父母鄉，青龍同位最為祥，騰蛇白虎憂尊長，玄武勾陳宅母當。父母休囚離祖早，兩重父母過親房，殺神朱雀同時並，重病如何得離床。子孫持世為全吉，若值青龍子異常，子值勾陳多樸實，子交朱雀主文章。騰蛇犯子愚而濁，白虎持孫勇且強，玄武子孫同位發，男為盜賊女猖狂。

On the subject of the Six Relations, one should first establish the foundation with the Parents'爻. When the Azure Dragon is in the same position as the Parents'爻, it is most auspicious. If theTeng Snake or White Tiger is present with the Parents'爻, there will be worries for the elders. If the玄武 or Gou Chen is with the Parents'爻, it indicates troubles related to the family's main wife. If the Parents'爻 is weak and confined, it suggests the person left the ancestral home at an early age. If there are two instances of the Parents'爻 in the hexagram, it indicates adoption into another branch of the family. If凶杀 and the Vermilion Bird appear together, it means severe illness that will not allow one to leave the bed. If the Children's爻 holds the world position, it is entirely auspicious. If it also meets the Azure Dragon, the child will be outstanding and exceptional. If the Children's爻 meets the Gou Chen, the person tends to be simple and honest. If it meets the Vermilion Bird, it indicates literary talent. If the腾蛇 conflicts with the Children's爻, the person will be dull and confused. If the White Tiger holds the Children's爻, the person will be brave and strong. If the玄武 is in the same position as the Children's爻 and is active, men will become thieves and women will be prone to licentiousness.

子孫若值游魂卦，此子生來好遠方，陽化陰爻端正女，陰交陽體秀才郎。妻財發動青龍助，因妻致富妙難量，財臨朱雀妻賢惠，財犯勾陳妻病殃。騰蛇共位妻應拙，白虎同行妻命剛，妻臨玄武多臨暗，心意瞞人必不良。兩位妻財俱旺相，一妻一妾美容光，卦若無妻常獨自，妻子安靜保安康。

If the son and daughter爻 encounters a floating soul hexagram, this child is born with a strong desire to travel far away. If a yang爻 turns into a yin爻, it signifies a well-mannered daughter. If a yin爻 turns into a yang爻, it signifies a boy who is good at studying. If the wife and wealth爻 is activated and assisted by the azure dragon, it indicates becoming wealthy through marriage, with benefits that are hard to measure. If the wife and wealth爻 is accompanied by the vermilion bird, the wife is virtuous. If the wife and wealth爻 is involved with the gou chen, the wife is often plagued by illness. If the teng she is in the same position as the wife and wealth爻, the wife is clumsy. If the white tiger is in the same position as the wife and wealth爻, the wife has a strong and fierce character. If the wife and wealth爻 is accompanied by the black tortoise, there are many ambiguous matters, and the person's thoughts are hidden, which is likely to be harmful. If both wife and wealth爻 are prosperous and strong, it indicates having one wife and one concubine, both beautiful. If the hexagram lacks the wife and wealth爻, it often indicates being single. If the wife and wealth爻 is quiet and unmoving, it ensures the wife's safety and health.

妻財合世夫妻順，妻位生身家道昌，官鬼青龍同一位，家榮子貴壽延長。朱雀並官多訟事，勾陳帶鬼損田莊，騰蛇犯鬼多縈繫，白虎交官身有傷。玄武當官奸與盜，兩重官鬼必憂喪，若占官府反為吉，福厚官高名譽揚。兄弟加龍猶且且，若同朱雀必相妨，騰蛇白虎皆凶兆，玄武勾陳總不祥。吉處只宜常旺相，凶交卻怪落空亡。

The wife wealth爻 combines with the world line爻, indicating harmony in marriage; when the wife wealth爻 supports the body爻, the family will flourish. The official ghost爻 shares the same position with the azure dragon, indicating honor and prestige in the family, success of the children, and a long life. The vermilion bird and the official ghost爻 together suggest frequent lawsuits; the gou chen accompanying the ghost爻 causes damage to the fields and property; the teng she conflicting with the ghost爻 leads to entanglements and troubles; the white tiger and the official ghost爻 interacting brings harm to oneself. The black tortoise occupying the position of the official ghost爻 indicates the presence of deceit and thieves; if the hexagram shows two official ghost爻, there will be worries about death. However, if one is asking about matters related to the government, these signs are actually favorable, indicating deep blessings, high official rank, and widespread reputation. If the siblings爻 is accompanied by the azure dragon, it is still somewhat acceptable; but if it is combined with the vermilion bird, there will be mutual conflict. If the teng she or the white tiger is on the siblings爻, it is a bad omen; if the black tortoise or the gou chen is on the siblings爻, it is also ominous. In summary, favorable positions should always be prosperous and strong, while when evil爻 are active, it is preferable for them to fall into the empty state.

內身陽鬼丈夫持，外應財陰總是妻，世應相生婚大吉，比和世應配相宜。青龍六合扶為美，三合子孫臨□□，應動三刑刑莫問，外交六害害無疑。三爻並偶生成少，立位純陽生育稀，男女和同咸泰益，夫妻反目革睽離。夫宮陽壯妻難保，姤卦陰強家不齊，不有其躬蒙裡斷，夫征不復漸中推。

When divining about marriage, the inner trigram, the self line, and the yang lines are used to represent the husband, while the outer trigram, the response line, the wife's wealth line, and the yin lines represent the wife. If the self and response lines are mutually generating, the marriage is very auspicious. If they are like and harmonious, it is also a suitable match. If aided by the azure dragon and six harmony, it is most perfect. If further supported by triple harmony with the children line, it is even better. If the response line moves and carries the three evils, this marriage should not be considered. If the outer trigram is in motion and carries the six harms, it is definitely harmful. If the third line is even yin, it indicates few children. If all six lines are pure yang, there will also be few offspring. If the hexagram is one of the types like Xian, Tai, or Yi, the couple will be in harmony and united. If the hexagram is one of the types like Ge, Kui, or Li, the couple will be at odds. If the husband's palace has excessive yang energy, the wife will be hard to keep. If the hexagram is Guo, with one yin opposing five yang, the yin energy is too strong, and the family will be disordered. The line six three of Meng says, "Do not take a wife, seeing a man of metal, without self-respect," indicating that the woman has already lost her chastity. The line nine three of Zhen says, "The husband goes on a campaign and does not return," indicating that the husband will not come back.

一奇一偶成親順，雙鬼雙財配匹違，殺在妻財妻子厄，殺臨官鬼丈夫衰。妻財官鬼青龍助，富貴男兒福德妻，官鬼兩重相剋應，女人曾許兩家期。白虎臨財莫問婚，勾加官位剋夫身，殺臨兄弟多爭競，朱雀臨身公訟陳。勾陳陰殺休求女，玄武值財休問親，龍並子孫全吉兆，喜重父母福相因。

One odd and one even, meaning one yang and one yin each occupying their proper positions, leads to a smooth marriage. If two official ghost lines and two wealth lines appear together, the spouse will have obstacles. If aInauspicious Sha (evil killer) falls on the wealth line, the wife will face misfortune; if it falls on the official ghost line, the husband will be weak. If both the wealth line and the official ghost line receive assistance from the azure dragon, it indicates a wealthy man marrying a wife with virtue. If there are two official ghost lines that mutually control the response line, it suggests that the woman has previously promised herself to two families. If the white tiger is on the wealth line, do not inquire about marriage; if the gou chen is on the official ghost line, it will harm the husband. If theInauspicious Sha (evil killer) is on the siblings line, there will be disputes; if the vermilion bird is on the self line, legal troubles will arise. If the gou chen and the阴杀 (yin killer) are together, do not seek the bride's family; if the xuanwu is exactly on the wealth line, do not ask about marriage. If the azure dragon and the children line appear together, it is a completely auspicious sign; if the heavenly joy overlaps on the parents line, good fortune will follow.

坤變坎宮男破體，乾來離位女非真，欲知女子如何性，坎主心聰艮沉靜。兌心和柔巽必恭，坤爻寬厚乾剛正，文明女子為逢離，智慧男兒因見震。乾宮面部天而寬，坤主魁肥莫小看，艮卦決然身體小，坎爻定是臉團圞。兌家女子瑩而白，震位妻兒奇且端，巽體容顏如瑞雪，離宮和潤可人觀。有亡有劫都無用，無子無財總不堪。

The Kūn hexagram transforming into the Kan palace indicates that the man has already lost his virginity; the Qian hexagram arriving at the Li position suggests that the woman is not a virgin. To understand the nature of a woman: the Kan hexagram signifies a sharp and intelligent mind, the Gen hexagram indicates quiet and calmness, the Dui hexagram suggests a gentle and kind heart, the Xun hexagram implies respectful and careful behavior, the Kūn hexagram represents a broad and generous character, and the Qian hexagram denotes a strong and upright nature. If the Li hexagram appears, it indicates a refined and wise woman; if the Zhen hexagram is present, it suggests a clever and intelligent man. Now consider their appearance: the Qian palace indicates a broad and square face; the Kūn hexagram suggests a tall and strong figure, which should not be underestimated; the Gen hexagram indicates a short stature; the Kan line suggests a round face; the Dui hexagram indicates a woman with fair and clean skin; the Zhen position suggests a wife with a peculiar yet handsome appearance; the Xun hexagram indicates a face as white as snow; and the Li palace suggests a soft and charming appearance, very appealing. If the divination includes the Wángshén or Jiékè hexagrams, these should not be considered. If there is no Zhūsūn line or no Qīcái line, it is ultimately unsuitable for a match.
