Decoding Hetu and Luoshu / 国际中医中药杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To study the internal linkage of Hetu and Luoshu that reveals the law from which the universe occurs and develops. Methods By finding out the root causing the difference of the Middle Palace Numbers between Hetu and Luoshu, we try to interpret the origin of the universe and its development. Results The number Five and Ten in the Middle Palace of Hetu are generated by the combination of Sheng-cheng Numbers in Hem's four directions which are One-six, Two-seven, Three-eight, Four-nine which can be producted by each other orderly. The number Five in the Middle Palace of Luoshu is generated by the Yang numbers One-Three-Seven-Nine in Luoshu's four positive directions which have properties of Duidai and Heshi and the Yin numbers of Two-Four-Six-Eight in Luoshu's four comers do not produce the Middle Palace's Ten. Conclusion The combination of respective separations of Sheng-cheng Numbers in Hetu's four directions is the prerequisite of transformation from Hetu to Luoshu. The root of the universe's occurrence is Duidai and Heshi in Luoshu and the root of the universe's development is the separations of Sheng-cheng Numbers from the unity in Hetu.
