Chinese occultism - divination (eight words of divination)
Q: What is the eight character?
A: Now that the child is born, the birth certificate says that he was born sometime in a certain month of the year. This is the modern calendar year method. The Gregorian calendar method was introduced to China only at the end of the Qing Dynasty in China. China used to use a special method. This unique method requires eight words in order to determine a time. These eight words are also called the eight-character birth time, which is the eight-word divination we will talk about today.
People in ancient China believed that everything in the universe and the earth were operating according to certain rules, and this law was called the law of operation in China's highest mystery, "Easy."
In the "Easy" theory, the law of operation is divided into: the law of the operation of the sky, the law of the operation of the earth, and the law of the operation of the human being. The law of the day dominates the time, and the law of the earth dominates the space. (The law of the day dominates the operation of the universe, and the law of the earth dominates the geography and orientation: southeast and northwest, the laws of manship dominate the good fortune and bad luck of a person's life.)
Q: Why is Chinese divination based on birth time?
A: Because the law of the day affects the law of human operation, the birth time of a person shows the state of the universe at the time of birth. The ancient Chinese used yin and yang, and five kinds of states to indicate this state (what is yin Heyang, five kinds of behaviors? Will be explained in the next article) This may not be well understood.
This explanation may be well understood: for example, a piece of clothing, when it is made, necessarily represents the aesthetics, materials, and manufacturing processes of the time. Whether the clothes are noble or cheap, has been decided at the time of manufacture. This is the difference between poverty and wealth that Chinese divination often says.
But this is not exactly the case. In the Chinese divination doctrine, life and luck are two concepts, and good life is not necessarily good luck.
For example, life is like a car, and it is like a road. A good car does not necessarily meet a good road, and a good car can perform its best performance on a highway. But when you run into a broken road, a good car is not necessarily faster than a tractor. This is the so-called birth without encountering a good time.
When the life is helped, the person born with good life will prosper and develop, and in turn will decay and perish. This is the basic thinking of Chinese divination.

I have previously published a chapter on the impact of the law of the law on the movement of people, with friends of interest can go and see (Chinese mystery Feng Shui: https://steemit.com/chinese/@beikeer/the-feng-shui -of-chinese-mysterious-xuanxue-culture)
Of course, I will post an article explaining the impact of the law of operation on the law of people's operation, so stay tuned! thank you all!
