When encountering a day marked as "Jianxie" (evil and deceitful), if the hour falls on Chen or Wei and there is a bird calling on the roof, those with the auspicious energies of "Wang" (kingly) and "Xiang" (prosperous) should be interpreted as the arrival of officials to arrest deceitful people; those with the declining energies of "Xiu" (rest), "Fei" (decline), "Qiu" (captivity), and "Si" (death) indicate the rise of disputes and gossip. If the hour falls on Yin or Wu and there is a bird calling on the roof, it signifies that a modest gentleman is discussing immoral matters. If the hour falls on a broad and open position, it indicates matters of drinking and eating along with private and secretive affairs. If the hour falls on Chou or Xu, it indicates the arrival of officials to investigate private conspiracies. If the hour falls on Shen or Zi, it indicates schemes, conflicts, and theft. If the hour falls on Hai or Mao, it indicates private matters and conflicts involving thieves and weapons.

貪狼之日，時加申子，鳥鳴其上，時加王相，當言群賊攻劫，休廢囚死，當有盜賊事；時加寅午，鳥鳴其上，有善人說攻劫事；時加巳酉，鳥鳴其上，有酒食攻劫財物事；時加丑戌辰未，鳥鳴其上，有婦人諍訟群賊事；時加亥卯，鳥嗚其上，時加王相，有群賊相攻奪事。

On the day of "Tanlang" (Star of Romance and Desire), if the time falls in Shen or Zi and a bird calls from the roof, those with the "Wang" (Dominance) or "Xiang" (Prosperity) strong energy should be interpreted as a group of thieves attacking. Those with "Xiu" (Rest), "Fei" (Decline), "Qiu" (Captivity), or "Si" (Death) weak energy should indicate a theft incident. If the time falls in Yin or Wu and a bird calls from the roof, it indicates that a virtuous person is discussing an attack. If the time falls in Si or You and a bird calls from the roof, it indicates a dispute over food and drink. If the time falls in Chou, Xu, Chen, or Wei and a bird calls from the roof, it indicates disputes among women and theft by a group of thieves. If the time falls in Hai or Mao and a bird calls from the roof, and it is accompanied by "Wang" or "Xiang" strong energy, it indicates a conflict among thieves fighting over property.

陰賊之日，時加亥卯，鳥鳴其上，時加王相，群賊大戰，休廢囚死，當有大斗相傷；時加巳酉，鳥鳴其上，有酒食相殺傷事；時加丑戌，鳥嗚其上，有吏逐賊相害；時加寅午辰未，鳥鳴其上，有婦女奸私相傷事；時加申子，鳥鳴其上，有賊相攻劫事。

On days of "Yin Zei" (shadowy villains), if the time falls on亥 or 卯 and a bird calls from the roof, those in the "Wang" (kingly) or "Xiang" (prosperous) phase will experience a major battle among villains; those in the "Xiu" (resting), "Fei" (declining), "Qiu" (captured), or "Si" (dead) phases will face large-scale fights and injuries. If the time falls on巳 or 酉 and a bird calls from the roof, there will be incidents of violence due to drinking and eating. If the time falls on丑 or 戌 and a bird calls from the roof, there will be conflicts between officials and thieves. If the time falls on寅, 午, 辰, or 未 and a bird calls from the roof, there will be cases of women's private affairs leading to injuries. If the time falls on申 or 子 and a bird calls from the roof, there will be conflicts among thieves involving robbery and plunder.

諸陰賊日，有鳥若群飛及飄風颶從四季上來，時加四季，必有搜索，皆為開閉，囚日在近道。假令今日風起市中，若飛鳥從四季上來，即時搜索。欲知何捕人；若加丑戌，捕怨仇；加辰未，則捕小盜人殺。則此占皆為即至，不與風角同。

Whenever there is a day of hidden malevolence, if a group of birds flies by or a whirlwind, typhoon comes from the directions of the four seasons (Chen, Xu, Chou, Wei), and the hour falls also in the directions of the four seasons, there must be an act of search and capture. This should be judged according to the opening and closing of the city gates; if it is a 'prison' day, the event occurs on nearby roads. Suppose today the wind arises from the market or birds fly in from the directions of the four seasons, immediately there will be a search and capture. To determine who is being captured: if the hour falls on Chou or Xu, it is the capture of an enemy; if it falls on Chen or Wei, it is the capture of a thief or murderer. This type of divination indicates that the event will happen immediately, differing from the timing method of Fengjiao divination.

北方坎，風名曰廣莫風，主冬至四十五日。京房云：四時暴風起於北方，主盜賊起，天下兵皆動，令人病溼飲帶下，難以起居。（北方坎，主盜賊，故兵起。水溼帶下。下部溼。）

The north belongs to the trigram Kan, which represents water. The wind that arises from the north is called Guangmo Wind, and it governs the forty-five days following the winter solstice. Jing Fang said: If a violent wind arises from the north during any of the four seasons, it indicates the emergence of bandits and the mobilization of troops throughout the country. It also causes people to suffer from damp diseases, phlegm accumulation, and vaginal discharges, making their daily lives inconvenient. (Since the north is associated with the trigram Kan, which signifies bandits, military actions are likely to arise; as Kan represents water dampness, it is connected to disorders of the lower body involving dampness.)

東北艮曰條風，（亦名炎風。）主立春四十五日。一云：鬼行人道，多旱疫，主天下水，令人疾洩，變易形容。（冬春之交，萬物變改。）東方震曰明庶風，（亦名宄風。）主春分四十五日。京房云：人流，盜起相攻，風發天下，旱冥霜起，歲大飢，令人病變節四肢，不可動搖。（雷始起動，木始盛故也。）

The Northeast direction belongs to the trigram Gen (Mountain), and the wind coming from there is called Tiaofeng (also known as Yanfeng). It governs the forty-five days following the Beginning of Spring. There is a saying: when this wind arises, ghosts and spirits walk upon the path of human beings, often causing droughts and epidemics, and it presages flooding throughout the land, causing people to suffer from diarrhea and changes in their appearance. (At the transition between winter and spring, all things undergo transformation and change.) The East direction belongs to the trigram Zhen (Thunder), and the wind coming from there is called Mingshu Feng (also known as Gou Feng). It governs the forty-five days following the Vernal Equinox. Jingfang said: this wind presages the migration of people, the outbreak of bandits who fight and seize each other, the wind spreading throughout the land, drought and darkness in the sky, frost and cold descending, leading to a great famine, causing people to suffer from joint diseases and inability to bend or stretch their limbs. (This is because thunder begins to stir and the energy of wood begins to grow strong.)

東南巽曰清明風，（一名景風。）主立夏四十五日。京房云：民多洩痢，乳婦暴病死喪。南方離曰景風，（一名臣風。）主夏至四十五日。此風中發，有火災。來年旱，令人身暴熱，生瘡，目盲。（離為火，目為熱盲也。）

The southeast direction belongs to the trigram Xun (Wind), known as the "Clear and Bright Wind" (also called the "Scenic Wind"). It governs the forty-five days following the beginning of summer. Jing Fang said: this wind indicates that the people will suffer from diarrhea and dysentery, and women in childbirth may suddenly fall ill, leading to death and funerals. The southern direction belongs to the trigram Li (Fire), known as the "Scenic Wind" (also called the "Minister Wind"), which governs the forty-five days following the summer solstice. If this wind arises during this period, it signifies fire disasters, drought in the following year, and people experiencing sudden heat, skin sores, and blindness in the eyes. (Since the trigram Li belongs to fire, the blindness is due to heat affecting the eyes.)

西南坤曰涼風，一作諫，（一名陣風。）主立秋四十五日。此風發，天下兵動，日月失色，令人食不入口，病腰脊肩背股膝皆腫。（坤為眾，故兵動。陽氣衰，故日月無光，木為老，故患也。）西方兌曰閶闔風，（亦名飄風。）主秋分四十五日。京房曰：秋旱霜，主天下兵動，日月蝕，令人患瘡癬瘡。（兌為毀折，故日月食而生惡瘡。）

The southwest direction belongs to the trigram "Kun" (Earth), and the wind is called "Liang Feng" (Cool Wind), also referred to as "Jian Feng" (Advice Wind) or "Zhen Feng" (Gale). It governs the forty-five days following the beginning of autumn. When this wind arises, armies throughout the land are mobilized, the sun and moon lose their brightness, and people cannot swallow food. The waist, spine, shoulders, back, thighs, and knees all swell and ache. (The trigram "Kun" represents the people, hence it governs military movements; the waning of yang energy causes the sun and moon to lose their light; the wood energy has aged, thus causing these kinds of illnesses.) The western direction belongs to the trigram "Dui" (Lake), and the wind is called "Chang He Feng" (Gate Wind), also known as "Piao Feng" (Drifting Wind). It governs the forty-five days following the autumn equinox. Jing Fang said: This wind presages autumn drought and frost, military movements throughout the land, solar and lunar eclipses, and people suffering from sores and skin diseases. (The trigram "Dui" signifies destruction, hence the sun and moon are eclipsed and people suffer from malignant sores.)

西北乾曰不周風，主立冬四十五日。天下大飢。京房云：有盜賊相攻，人多疽疾，人流亡疾疫，多死喪，有神不起，地動，日月失色，令人病疥癘，生惡瘡。（乾當室壁，故主疾疫。）

The northwest belongs to the Trigram Qian (Heaven), and the wind is called "Bu Zhou Feng" (the Wind that Does Not Reach). It governs the forty-five days following the Beginning of Winter, and it presages great famine throughout the land. Jing Fang said: there will be bandits attacking each other, many people suffering from boils and sores, many people fleeing, epidemics spreading, and many deaths. Prayers to ghosts and spirits will not be answered, the earth's energy will tremble, the sun and moon will lose their color, and people will suffer from scabies, leprosy, and other malignant sores. (Since the Qian direction corresponds to the Encampment Mansion and the Wall Mansion, it is associated with epidemic diseases.)

古八節，但暴風起其方，即占。京房云：八方暴風之候及八卦風別名。春白、夏黑、秋赤、冬黃，皆為凶，下逆上，兵革四動，各隨其部日辰占之。乾高折風，（一名沖。）坎為大剛風，艮為凶風，震為嬰兒風，巽為大弱，（一雲小弱。）離為大弱風，坤為諫風，（一名陰謀風。）兌為小弱。

Ancient methods used the eight seasonal divisions to predict events, and if a violent wind arose from a particular direction, they would immediately use that direction to make a prediction. Jing Fang said: the signs of violent winds from the eight directions and the alternative names of the winds associated with the eight trigrams are as follows. In spring, the wind appears white; in summer, it appears black; in autumn, it appears red; in winter, it appears yellow. All of these are ominous signs, indicating rebellion from the lower ranks against the upper, and warfare breaking out everywhere. Each should be predicted according to the day branch corresponding to the direction. The wind from the Qian direction is called "Gaozhe Feng" (also known as "Chong Feng"). The wind from the Kan direction is called "Dagang Feng." The wind from the Gen direction is called "Xiong Feng." The wind from the Zhen direction is called "Yinger Feng." The wind from the Xun direction is called "Daweir Feng" (sometimes referred to as "Xiaoweir Feng"). The wind from the Li direction is called "Daweir Feng." The wind from the Kun direction is called "Jian Feng" (also known as "Miyou Feng"). The wind from the Dui direction is called "Xiaoweir Feng."

古八風，發屋折木，飛沙揚石，三日不雨，則逆四時，乃占。風為陽，雨為陰，陽之怒，得陰則諧，故風災得雨則解。正月朔後八風者，此法齊人要術，五穀所宜。

The ancient method of "eight winds" refers to strong winds that upturn roofs, snap trees, and cause flying sand and stones, with no rain falling for three days. This is called an inversion of the four seasons' energy, and it can be used for divination. Wind belongs to yang, and rain belongs to yin. When yang energy becomes angry, it is harmonized by yin energy, so wind disasters are naturally resolved by rain. As for the method of divining the eight winds after the first day of the first lunar month, this is a key technique of the farmers in the state of Qi, used to determine which of the five grains should be planted.

及出《漢書志》：從乾來，有憂兵；從坎來，回水湯湯，有大水；從艮來，人疾疫，歲有蝗蟲；從震來，陽氣干歲，大旱有喪；從巽來，歲多風，傷五穀；從離來，歲旱大熱，多火災；從坤來，人疾病，道中多死凶；從兌來，歲有兵革之事。

Another passage comes from the "Celestial Officials" section of the "Book of Han": if the wind comes from the Qian direction (Northwest), it indicates concern about military affairs; if it comes from the Kan direction (Due North), it signifies great flooding and water surges, leading to floods; if it comes from the Gen direction (Northeast), it indicates the spread of epidemics among people and locust plagues that year; if it comes from the Zhen direction (Due East), it suggests excessive yang energy and dryness, resulting in a severe drought throughout the year and funerals; if it comes from the Xun direction (Southeast), it indicates a year with frequent winds that damage the five grains; if it comes from the Li direction (Due South), it indicates a year of drought and extreme heat, with many fires; if it comes from the Kun direction (Southwest), it indicates many diseases among people and many deaths on the roads; if it comes from the Dui direction (Due West), it indicates military conflicts and warfare that year.

三辰八角風：辱、殺、反、吉、抵、誣誕、忿、爭。申子辰之日：艮震巽離坤兌乾坎。巳酉丑之日：巽離坤兌乾坎艮震。亥卯未之日：乾坎艮震巽離坤兌。寅午戌之日：坤兌乾坎艮震巽離。

The "Three Harmonies and Eight Angles Wind" chart: the eight angles are successively named as辱, 杀, 反, 吉, 抵, 诬诞, 忿, 争 (in the following explanations they are referred to as 辱, 杀, 反, 吉, 抵, 诞, 忿, 争). On days of 申, 子, 辰, the eight angles are successively paired with 艮, 震, 巽, 离, 坤, 兑, 乾, 坎; on days of 巳, 酉, 丑, they are successively paired with 巽, 离, 坤, 兑, 乾, 坎, 艮, 震; on days of 亥, 卯, 未, they are successively paired with 乾, 坎, 艮, 震, 巽, 离, 坤, 兑; on days of 寅, 午, 戌, they are successively paired with 坤, 兑, 乾, 坎, 艮, 震, 巽, 离. When predicting the wind, first determine which group of Three Harmonies the day belongs to, then refer to the chart to find which angle corresponds to the direction the wind comes from.

風從辱上來，國及家有恥辱之事。風從殺上來，有暴相殺不道理，若行道逢之，有相殺之人來過也。風從反上來，臣子有反逆不順之事。

Wind coming from the "humiliation" direction indicates disgraceful events in the country and the family. Wind coming from the "kill" direction indicates violent killings and unjust actions; if encountered on the road, there will be people fighting and killing nearby. Wind coming from the "rebellion" direction indicates that ministers or subjects may rebel and refuse to obey.

風從吉上來，有恩澤詔書，百姓除害，有喜事，若行道逢之，即見賢人君子酒食之遣，此直迴風，入人家同。風從抵上來，有牴觸非理。王日，貴人；相日，中人；休日，庶人；囚日、死日，族人相連。

A wind coming from the "Good" direction indicates that an imperial decree of grace will be issued, removing misfortunes from the people and bringing joy; if encountered on the way, one will meet a virtuous gentleman who prepares food and wine to offer. This refers to a wind that comes directly and rotates back, and the method of divination is the same when it enters a household. A wind coming from the "Opposition" direction indicates disputes and violations of reason: on a "King" day, the influence falls on the Nobleman; on a "Minister" day, it falls on an average person; on a "Rest" day, it falls on a commoner; on a "Captivity" day or a "Death" day, it affects the entire clan.

風從誕上來，有欺誕不誠之人，有欺紿。風從忿上來，有非議、忿爭土地財物之事。風從爭上來者，主有好人慾爭財物事。

Wind coming from the 「Dàn」 direction indicates the appearance of people who are deceptive and dishonest, leading to being deceived by others. Wind coming from the 「Fèn」 direction indicates criticism and disputes over land and property. Wind coming from the 「Zhēng」 direction indicates that even good people will be involved in disputes over property.

八方風來：風從震巽離上來者，主勝。風從乾坎艮兌坤上來，客勝。兩軍相當。風從折衝上來，必獲敵人資糧。風從坤上來，有事不成也。

When the wind comes from the directions of Zhen, Xun, and Li, the defending side will win. If the wind comes from the directions of Qian, Kan, Gen, Dui, and Kun, the attacking side will win, and both armies are evenly matched. If the wind comes from the position of 'Zhechong' (which refers to the position opposite to the main direction), it indicates that the enemy's supplies and equipment will be captured. If the wind comes from the Kun direction, the planned affair will not succeed.

正朔八風占：《漢志》曰：凡候歲美惡，謹候歲始，或冬至日。產氣始萌，臘明日，人眾卒歲，一會飲食，發陽氣，故曰初歲，正月旦。王者歲首立春，四時之始也，四者候之日。

The eight winds divination on the first day of the first lunar month: The "Book of Han · Records of Astronomy" says: In order to predict the good or bad harvest of the year, one must carefully observe the beginning of the year. The first is on the day of the winter solstice, when the vital energy of growth begins to stir. The second is the day after the sacrificial rites of the twelfth lunar month, when people bid farewell to the old year, gather together for meals, and thus stimulate the yang energy, so it is called "the beginning of the year." The third is the morning of the first day of the first lunar month. The fourth is the beginning of the year established by the emperor, which is the start of the four seasons. These four days are the days for observation and divination.

歲旦立春，風南來，大旱；西南來，小旱；西方來，主有兵革；西北來，戎菽為胡豆。小雨，兵起。北方來，中歲；東北來，上歲；東方來，大水；東南來，民有疾病，歲惡。八風各與其沖對課，多勝少，疾勝徐。旦至食為麥，食至昳為稷，昳至晡為黍，晡至下晡為菽，下晡至日沒為麻。

On the first day of the first lunar month and the day of Start of Spring, if the wind comes from the south, it indicates a severe drought; from the southwest, a minor drought; from the west, there will be military conflicts; from the northwest, there will be a good harvest of millet; if there is also light rain at the same time, it indicates the outbreak of military actions. If the wind comes from the north, it indicates a moderate harvest; from the northeast, a good harvest; from the east, there will be a great flood; from the southeast, there will be many diseases among the people and a poor harvest. The winds from the eight directions should be compared with their opposing directions. The direction with more wind will prevail over the one with less wind, and the direction with stronger wind will prevail over the one with weaker wind. Also, according to the time of day, the five grains are assigned as follows: from dawn to breakfast time, the wind should be from wheat; from breakfast to noon, from millet; from midday to the time of the tiger (申), from millet; from the time of the tiger to sunset, from beans; from sunset to dusk, from hemp.

又有東谷風、南凱風、西泰（一作涼）風、北涼風。風從北來，宜客；南來，為主吉；西來，宜客；東來，宜主；西北來，宜客；東南來，宜主；西南來，有謀不成；東北來，主客俱不利。

There are also specific names for the winds from the four directions: the east wind is called 「Gu Feng」, the south wind is called 「Kai Feng」, the west wind is called 「Tai Feng」 (another version says 「Liang Feng」), and the north wind is called 「Liang Feng」. Wind coming from the north is favorable for the guest side; wind coming from the south is auspicious for the host side; wind coming from the west is favorable for the guest side; wind coming from the east is favorable for the host side; wind coming from the northwest is favorable for the guest side; wind coming from the southeast is favorable for the host side; wind coming from the southwest will cause matters to fail; wind coming from the northeast is unfavorable for both the host and the guest sides.

風從乾來，西北方也，有小雨，兵起戎狄，胡兵也。風從正北坎方來，多水大雨。風從東北艮方來，豐稔。風從正東來，大水。風從東南來，民有疾病。風從南來為大旱。風從西南來者，小旱。風從正西來者，有兵災。若風勢大急惡昏濁，亦以八卦暴風例占之為妙也。

The wind comes from the Qian direction, which is the northwest, indicating light rain and military conflicts arising from the Rongdi, meaning the Hu people. If the wind comes from the north Kan direction, it indicates much water and heavy rain. If the wind comes from the northeast Gen direction, it indicates a bountiful harvest. If the wind comes from the east, it indicates a great flood. If the wind comes from the southeast, it indicates many diseases among the people. If the wind comes from the south, it indicates a severe drought. If the wind comes from the southwest, it indicates a minor drought. If the wind comes from the west, it indicates military disaster. If the wind is strong and the sky is dark and turbid, then refer to the general rules of the Eight Trigrams for stormy winds for a more accurate judgment.

立春，正月節，清明少雲，善熟，霧則旱蟲傷禾豆。乾上風來，暴霜殺物，五日，粟卒貴；坎上風來，冬大風寒，北狄侵；艮上風來，五穀熟；震上風來，氣洩，物不成；巽上風來，多風足蟲；離上風來，旱傷生物；坤上風來，春寒，六月水，人多愁土功；兌上風來，旱霜兵起。

The beginning of spring is the first solar term of the year: on this day, if the sky is clear with little cloud, it indicates a good harvest and mature crops; if there is a heavy fog, it suggests drought and pest damage to millet and beans. If the wind comes from the Qian direction, it indicates sudden frost that harms crops, and millet prices will rise sharply within five days; if the wind comes from the Kan direction, it suggests frequent strong winds and severe cold in winter, and the northern Di people will invade; if the wind comes from the Gen direction, it indicates the maturity of all grains; if the wind comes from the Zhen direction, it indicates the escape of earth energy, and crops will not bear fruit; if the wind comes from the Xun direction, it indicates frequent winds and many crawling insects; if the wind comes from the Li direction, it indicates drought that harms living things; if the wind comes from the Kun direction, it indicates a cold spring and flooding in June, causing people to worry about construction work in earth and wood; if the wind comes from the Dui direction, it indicates drought and frost, and military conflicts will arise.

春分，二月中氣，東方有青雲，必熟；晴明，物不成。乾上風來，歲多寒，金鐵倍貴；坎上風來，菽豆不成，飢疫；艮上風來，夏不熟，米貴一倍；震上風來，五穀成，亦無賊；巽上風來，蟲生，四月多暴寒；離上風來，五月先水後旱；坤上風來，小水，人多瘧疫；兌上風來，有兵，春寒，八月國憂也。

Spring Equinox is the middle solar term of the second month: on this day, if green clouds appear in the east, it indicates that crops will certainly mature; but if it is clear and bright all the time, it suggests that the crops will not be harvested. If the wind comes from the Qian direction, it indicates a cold winter for the whole year, with the prices of metal and iron doubling; if the wind comes from the Kan direction, it indicates that beans will not bear fruit, and there will be famine and epidemic diseases; if the wind comes from the Gen direction, it indicates that summer crops will not mature, and rice prices will rise by half; if the wind comes from the Zhen direction, it indicates that all five grains will be abundant, and there will be no thieves; if the wind comes from the Xun direction, it indicates that pests will proliferate, and there will be frequent cold waves in April; if the wind comes from the Li direction, it indicates that in May there will be first flooding and then drought; if the wind comes from the Kun direction, it indicates that there will be small water disasters, and many people will suffer from malaria and plague; if the wind comes from the Dui direction, it indicates that there will be military conflicts, a cold spring, and the country will have troubles in August.

立夏，南方有赤雲則豐，晴明則旱。乾上風來，其年凶飢，夏霜，麥不刈；坎上風來，多雨，魚行人道；艮上風來，山崩地動，人疫；震上風來，雷動非時擊物；巽上風來，其年豐熟；離上風來，夏旱禾熟；坤上風來，不共力，萬物天傷；兌上風來，蝗蟲大動。

On the day of Li Xia (the beginning of summer), if red clouds appear in the south, it indicates a bountiful harvest. If the weather is clear and bright, it foretells a drought. If the wind comes from the Qian direction, it signifies a year of calamity, famine, and drought during summer, making it impossible to harvest wheat. If the wind comes from the Kan direction, there will be much rain, with fish swimming on the roads people walk. If the wind comes from the Gen direction, there will be mountain collapses and earthquakes, along with epidemics among people. If the wind comes from the Zhen direction, there will be thunder striking at inappropriate times, damaging objects. If the wind comes from the Xun direction, it indicates a year of abundant harvest. If the wind comes from the Li direction, it means summer will be dry, yet the grain will still mature. If the wind comes from the Kun direction, it suggests human efforts will be uncoordinated, and all things will suffer damage from natural conditions. If the wind comes from the Dui direction, it indicates a great outbreak of locusts.

夏至，南方赤氣則熟，晴明則旱。乾上風來，寒氣萬物；坎上風來，寒暑不時，夏月多寒；艮上風來，山水暴出；震上風來，八月人多疾；巽上風來，九月風落眾物；離上風來，五穀熟；坤上風來，六月多雨水橫流；兌上風來，秋多雨霜也。

On the day of Summer Solstice, if red clouds appear in the south, it indicates that crops will mature. If the weather is clear and sunny all the time, it indicates drought. If the wind comes from the Qian direction, it indicates that cold air will harm all things. If the wind comes from the Kan direction, it indicates that the cold and heat will be out of order, and summer will be colder than usual. If the wind comes from the Gen direction, it indicates mountain floods. If the wind comes from the Zhen direction, it indicates that there will be many diseases in August. If the wind comes from the Xun direction, it indicates that in September, strong winds will cause various fruits to fall. If the wind comes from the Li direction, it indicates that the five grains will mature. If the wind comes from the Kun direction, it indicates that there will be much rain and flooding in June. If the wind comes from the Dui direction, it indicates that there will be much rain and frost in autumn.

立秋，有白雲及小雨則吉，晴明物不成。乾上風來，甚寒多雨；坎上風來，冬霧多雪寒；艮上風來，秋氣不和；震上風來，秋多雨雹，人不知草木再榮；巽上風來，卒兵內起；離上風來，兵戎不利，多旱；坤上風來，五穀成熟；兌上風來，兵起將行。

On the day of the Beginning of Autumn, if white clouds appear and light rain falls, it is a good omen; however, if it remains clear and sunny, it indicates that crops will not mature properly. Wind coming from the Qian direction indicates extreme cold and frequent rain; wind from the Kan direction suggests many fogs, snow, and severe cold in winter; wind from the Gen direction indicates that the autumn climate is unbalanced; wind from the Zhen direction suggests frequent rain and hail in autumn, with unexpected flowering of plants; wind from the Xun direction indicates sudden military disturbances within the territory; wind from the Li direction suggests military operations are unfavorable and there will be drought; wind from the Kun direction indicates that the five grains will mature; wind from the Dui direction suggests the initiation of military campaigns and generals going to war.
