Basic Laws of Yin and Yang (5)

　　The sage said, "Infinity begets Tai Chi, Tai Chi begets two instruments, and two instruments begets four images."

　　Links to the first four basic laws of Yin and Yang:

　　Basic laws of yin and yang (1);

　　Basic laws of Yin and Yang (II);

　　Basic laws of yin and yang (3);

　　Basic laws of Yin and Yang (IV);

　　It mainly talks about the interaction between Yin and Yang, and the two main states that will appear after the two instruments form a Tai Chi system: engagement and neutralization.

　　So today we are going to talk about the four images made up of yin and yang again.

　　The four images are: shaoyang and the sun; Shaoyin and Taiyin; The four images are on the ground, which are the qi of the four seasons. Then we will understand them through the changes of the yin and yang qi of the four seasons in spring, summer, autumn and winter, which will be more vivid. At the same time, it also involves the yin and yang perspective to look at the content of the four seasons of cold, heat, dampness and dryness.

　　Wood of shaoyang: the qi of shaoyang is wood, the four seasons are spring, and spring is the main life; It is a state with yang as the leading force, but more yin and less yang. The changing trend is that yang grows and yin disappears, and the ultimate goal is that less yang becomes yang. It means that spring is going to summer, and it is our responsibility to cultivate, develop and strengthen yang, and the qi of shaoyang should grow into the qi of the sun. Therefore, born in the spring, the soil is put to death, the rustic is difficult to exert strength, and the anger is born, which is still immature. At this time, I am most afraid that water will fill the wood wet, which makes it difficult to release Yin qi and stretch Yang qi.

　　Although wood is a symbol of the qi of less yang, it is in a state of ignorance and uncertainty of good and evil because of its combination, just like a child's natural innocence is yang, but at the same time it is easy to learn from bad to yin, and it needs correct teaching to become a useful person. In spring, when the yin qi has not completely faded away, the residual forces are still large. If the fate of Shui Mu is great, it is easy to suppress the fire soil, which makes it difficult to express the yang qi, and the weather in spring is afraid of being too wet. This kind of moisture is the performance of Shui Mu's strong restraint of the fire soil and the imbalance of the weather. If the fate is difficult to adapt to the changes of yin and yang in the weather, it will lose the benefits of the weather. Therefore, often in spring, the most important five elements are gold and fire, and there must be a combination of Jin Kemu. At this time, gold is the guardian of yang, protecting weak soil from the restraint of Wangmu, and it is regarded as yang gold; If there is no gram of wood in spring, but raw water goes, then it is regarded as yin gold. Then if you meet a combination of fire and gold, it is a taboo to fight with God. In the same way, if the wood in spring comes to make a fire, it is poplar; If the wood in spring is born by water and is earthy, it is a shady wood properly. The most important thing is to see whether the relationship between birth and gram of the five elements is serving yin qi or doing work for yang qi.

　　The fire of the sun: the qi of the sun is fire, the four seasons are summer, and summer is the main thing; It is a state in which the yang is abundant and the yin is weak, so the changing trend is that the anode is yin. It means that summer should turn to autumn, and under the strong yang, we should protect the fragile yin. But many people will misunderstand that fire is pure yang qi, and there is no yin qi, which is wrong. The image that is easy to understand is the deviation from divination in the Eight Diagrams, with the form of external yang and internal yin, and the true yin is not obvious internally, but it is not without it. It is a state in which the yin is compressed to the extreme. There is no such thing as pure yang and pure yin in the world, because one of yin and yang does not exist, and Tai Chi is shattered and no longer exists, symbolizing death and disappearance. In summer, when the yang is rampant, it is very necessary for yin to reconcile. Water is often used in summer, but many people ignore that wood is also one of the good spirits in summer.

　　Because fire and soil are flourishing in summer, if the fate of fire and soil is prosperous, it may not be successful to adjust the weather directly with water. It is necessary to consider that water will be restrained by rustic. In this case, only when Shui Mu is alive, the yin wood will restrain the soil and the water will be guarded by the yin wood, so as to have the conditions and ability to control the expansion and ravage of internal heat well. Among them, the fire representing the sun's qi and the water representing the lunar qi are the symbols of the yin and yang sides with firm positions, just like the spokesperson who signed a lifelong contract and could not go back on his word.

　　However, Jin Mu is different, and according to different combinations, it will extend the Yin wood, Yang wood and Yin Jinyang gold, mainly depending on which side of Yin and Yang is served by the relationship between the two. In some cases, Jin Mu may even be a swing, vacillating according to different combinations of words. For example, a pillar of Wuyin only looks like the combination of wood and clay, but if you see the combination of noon fire and fire, it will become a situation in which yang wood makes a fire to regenerate soil, and the strength of wood will be greatly reduced.

　　The gold of shaoyin: the qi of shaoyin is gold, the four seasons are autumn, and autumn is the main harvest; It is a state in which yin is the dominant force, but there are more yang and less yin. The changing trend is that yin grows and yang disappears, and the ultimate goal is that less yin becomes yin. It means that autumn is going to winter, and it is our responsibility to cultivate, develop and strengthen Yin qi, and the qi that is less Yin should grow into the Qi that is too Yin. Many people mistakenly think that autumn is the season when Yin qi is very strong and fire is needed to adjust the weather. In fact, autumn is still very sultry in many areas, which is closely related to the state of more yang and less yin, and corresponds to the situation that spring is warm and cold. Then why is it a good fate for many people to meet the fire in autumn? Everyone has heard that "autumn gold is refined by fire" is a very good pattern. From the perspective of image method, it is because stubborn gold needs fire smelting to become a device.

　　But from the perspective of yin and yang, it is because autumn is afraid of being too dry, which corresponds to spring's fear of being too wet. The change trend of yin and yang in autumn is to develop the qi of less yin into the qi of lunar yin. Water is most afraid of earth, and it was born in autumn. If soil and gold are flourishing and gold does not produce water, it will inevitably do great harm to the Yin qi represented by Shui Mu, resulting in the inability of Yin qi to grow, and it is difficult for less Yin to become the Taiyin, which is the virtue of going against the sky. Therefore, when autumn gold is refined by fire, the residual anger is still strong to restrain the gold gas and save the wood gas. After the wood gas is saved, it has the ability and momentum to restrain the rustic gas and protect the fragile water and yin gas to grow and develop. This is really not that enemies don't get together. Although fire and water are fatalistic opponents, this time, it shows the characteristics of two sides of the integration of fire, water and yin. This integration is the whole, and both sides serve the overall Taiji formed by yin and yang.

　　Only with the guidance of this holistic thinking and systematic thinking can the development and pattern of human beings go further and further.

　　Water of the lunar calendar: the spirit of the lunar calendar is water, and the four seasons are winter, which is the main collection; It is a state in which yin flourishes and yang declines, so the changing trend is that the cathode is yang, which means that winter should turn to spring, and the fragile yang should be protected under the strong yin. Similarly, many people will misunderstand that water is pure Yin qi, and there is no Yang qi. Through the divination in the eight diagrams, we can vividly understand that the form is Yang in the vulva, and the true Yang qi is not obvious internally, but it is not without it, but it is a state in which the Yang qi is compressed to the extreme. It is too cold in winter, and we all know that we should use fire to adjust the weather. In addition to fire, we actually need soil to protect us. Otherwise, the water will flourish in winter, and the fire will kill the land, and the water will overcome the fire. That is the gesture of "I am outrageous and can't help it". When the yang is exposed, it will be hurt by the yin, so it is necessary to deal with the disaster. In the same way, soil should protect fire, and it is also afraid that the water in winter will control the wood, so gold is needed to protect the soil, similar to that in spring, but the soil in winter is not as weak as that in spring, and the wood in winter is not as strong as that in spring, so it depends on the situation. After all, gold can easily be induced to produce water and betray the sun be the spirit.

　　Sometimes born in winter, even if you don't see fire, a piece of earth gold won't be too bad, because although the yang is not obvious, the guards are in place and the obstacles have already been cleared. As long as there is a fire in the Universiade, you can wait for a long time and wait for it, and the fire can be directly enthroned.

　　Non-yin and non-yang soil: soil is the only five elements that do not distinguish between yin and yang, and the core function of soil is to bear, as the medium and carrier of interaction and change between yin and yang; The biggest feature is that carrying yin into yin and carrying yang into yang. Therefore, when it comes to the main branch, there will also be a tendency of yin and yang attributes. From the perspective of heavenly dryness, bentonite is characterized by yang dryness and more yang, and the combination ratio of yin and yang is more yang and less yin; Taking pictures is the soil of guards, hard soil and dry soil; The main function is to resist water and protect fire; However, if the soil is born in spring and winter, and the earthly branches are ugly and wet soil, it will weaken the yang and enhance the yin. This kind of bentonite with wet soil as its root can look like a very solid stage or house, but in fact, the interior is very unreliable and easy to collapse and collapse due to internal instability. The soil is dry in the shade, with more yin and qi, and the combination ratio of yin and yang is more yin and less yang; The images are all pastoral soil, cultivated soil and wet soil; The main function is to grow gold and cultivate wood; However, if you are born in the Spring and Autumn Period and the earthly branches are not dry, it will weaken the yin and enhance the yang. This kind of own soil with dry soil as its root can be taken as a dry and grainy desert. Although it is not a Gaogang mountain, it is also a dry and sultry desert or a wasteland where nothing grows.

　　From the perspective of earthly branches, it is said that everything is not full of fire, and Yang becomes Yang, so it is dry soil. Chen ugly hides water and carries yin into yin, so it is wet soil. However, Chen Xu and Ugly are born in different seasons, which will also have a strong influence on their own yin and yang attributes. For example, if you are born in summer, you will see that there is no ugly soil in the original bureau. If the ugliness does not collide, it will wash away the roots of water, which will damage the yin and yang of the ugly soil. The image can be concrete, which is wet first and then dried, and changes from soft to hard. In the same way, Chen Xu, who was born in winter, will also bruise the root of fire, damaging the yang and strengthening the yin. The image is a mudslide that slopes down after a rainstorm, or a snowy ridge ice sheet covered with frost.
