THÁI CỰC

TAI CHI

 

The HoT'u  is the cosmos message through FuXi, FuXi gave it to posterity with eight groups of three lines. Decoding it, we will find  the basic principle of formation of two primary energies , four primary symbols  , and trigram. The motion picture below is the activity of Tai Chi which generates yin-yang; and creates ring waves to convey yin-yang. Look at the diagram below : black colors represent for yin, white colors represent for yang.

 

 

There are countless shape circle waves continuously be formed. Wave be after created, pushing previous waves to outside. As a result, a range of continuous circles 1,2,3,4,5,6 to endless.
 

 

The first circle divides the entire surface into two cut sections, the second circle divides the entire surface into four cut sections, the third circle divides the entire surface into eight cut sections, then the fourth, the fifth, the sixth circle divides the entire surface into sixteen, thirty two, and sixty four cut sections.

 

The yin-yang inside the first circle create two primary energies [ ].The yin-yang inside each of four cut sections of two continuous circles coordinate into four symbols [ ]. The yin-yang inside each of eight cut sections of three continuous circles combine into eight trigram [ ].

 

 Way of

TAI CHI

generates

WU CHI

 

TAI CHI has own characteristic for self-division into yin and yang. Yang is born in the North, the nature of it is light, fly up. Yin is born in the South, the nature of it is heavy, goes down. Yang  occupies entire the left position of Tai Chi, Yin occupies entire the right position of Tai Chi.  Law called  " Yang in left, Yin in right ".

 

 

 

 

Way of

WU CHI

creates

FOUR PRIMAY SYMBOLS

 

 

The second circle is divided into four cut sections. Two cut sections on the left side, yang occupies above position, yin occpies below position. Two cut sections on the right side, yang occupies above position, yin occupies below position. Law called " Yang in above, Yin in below ". Yang, Yin inner four cut sections of both circles coordinate into four primary symbols :

 

    called  Greater Yang, was born in the Southeastern.

     called  Lesser Yin, was born in the Northeastern

     called Lesser Yang, was born in the Southwestern

     called  Greater Yin, was born in the Northwestern.

 

 

Way of 

FOUR PRIMARY SYMBOLS

 generate

TRIGRAM

 

 

The third circle divide entire surface into eight cut sections, mean four symbols is divided into eight parts. Yin Yang on three continuous circles 123 of eight cut sections are trigram.

 

From top to bottom in left side :

       First :  called Qian, was bon in the Southeastern-South.

       Second :  called Dui, was born in the Southeastern-East.

       Third  : called Li, was born in the Northeastern-East.

         Fourth  : called Zhen, was born in the Northeastern-North.
 

From top to bottom in right side :

         Fifth : called Xun, was born in the Southwestern-South

         Sixth :  called Kan, was born in the Southwestern-West.

         Seventh :  called Gen, was born in the Northwestern-West

          Eighth : called Kun, was born in the Northwestern-North.

 

Definition of trigram is the yin-yang coordinations

at each cut section on three continuous circles :

 

 

 

The group of three [1,2,3] continuous circles has eight trigrams. The group of three [2,3,4] continuous circles has sixteen trigrams. The group of three [3,4,5] continuous circles has thirty two trigrams. The group of three [4,5,6] continuous circles has sixty four trigrams. Such on six circles have four trigram layers A B C D from the  inside out 

:

 

The eight trigrams of class A are innermost, called Inner. The sixteen trigrams of class B, the thirty two trigrams of class C, the sixty four trigrams of class D are outside, called Outer.

 

 

The Yin Yang

in each of sixty four cut sections coordinate into

 sixty four hexagrams

 

 

 

The natural layout in the order and position of the 64 hexagrams is as is. From South to North on both left side and right side of the circle which has 32 hexagrams.

 

Expanding the 64 hexagrams circle

 then stretching straight  :

 

 

Each of 1-64 hexagrams is formed by six short lines. The broken line is yin, the unbroken line is yang. Six lines are counted from the bottom to the top; every three lines 1,2,3 and 4,5,6 create a single trigram. Therefore, one hexagram has two single trigrams in it; the inner below, the outer above :

 


In conclusions, the process of Tai Chi generates Wu Chi

then generates four primary symbols

8 trigrams, 16 trigrams, 32 trigrams

64 hexagrams

 

 

 

An interesting finding in FuXi's drawing of 64 hexagrams. That is the copy of three bar magnets are same, in which the F2 is divided into two pieces but doesn't detaches and F3 is divided into four pieces but doesn't detaches them :

 

 

 

 

With

several illustrations and proofs above enough to firm that

Fu Xi is the author of 64 hexagrams
