    I Ching.

    Oriental metaphysics explains many things according to the mysterious relationship between heaven and earth and man in Chinese culture, which is mainly based on the basic principles in the book "Zhou Yi", "Heavenly Stem", "Earth Branch", "Yin and Yang Five Elements", and judging the success or failure of affairs by the different generations and restraints of the year, month, day and time. The book "Zhou Yi" can be used in politics, military, economy, construction, culture, art, astronomy, geography, science and technology, as large as the macrocosmic universe, nature, country, nation, society, small family, and all unknown opportunities in personal life and work. The so-called 5,000-year history of Chinese civilization, in the last 2,500 years, China gave birth to Lao Tzu and Confucius, India gave birth to Shakyamuni, before Buddhism was introduced to China, Lao Tzu and Confucius summed up the experience and confirmation of many aspects from the macro to the micro 2,500 years ago, and created the cosmology of heaven and earth represented by Lao Tzu, and the personality standard of loyalty, filial piety, benevolence, righteousness, propriety, wisdom and faith represented by Confucius.

    Confucius's Confucianism is the norm for man, a higher animal, and Laozi's Taoism is to elucidate the interrelationship between heaven, earth and life, and he is the earliest guide for mankind to enter the true civilization. In the brick murals of the Wei and Jin tombs in Jiayuguan, Gansu, there is no clear record of Buddhism and folk religion, but there is an obvious embodiment of Taoism, in the tomb of the male and female collection, there are three circles painted on the brick side of the man, and there are four circles on the side of the woman, which just echoes the Taoist to three for "take Han Xiantian", "Zhou Yi" in the "Qian" (on behalf of the male), the four old Li for the "earth" Zhou Yi in the "Kun (on behalf of the female), it is said that the Jiayuguan Wei and Jin Dynasty tomb brick painting commentator said: these two bricks are painted three circles, one draws four circles, It has become a mystery through the ages, since the Wei and Jin tombs were opened to visitors, I don't know how many Chinese and foreign archaeologists have come, but no one can solve this mystery, it is clear that archaeologists are not equal to Zhou Yi scholars, Zhou Yi scholars are real archaeologists.

    I believe that everyone has a certain understanding of Eastern metaphysics, such as Yi Xue and Feng Shui that are prevalent in East Asia, and "witchcraft divination" that is prevalent in Southeast Asia, in fact, there are similar metaphysics in the West. It is not difficult to find out from the comparisonThere are also certain similarities between Western metaphysics and Eastern metaphysics.

    A common element of Western metaphysics in life is playing cardsNow playing cards have become a game tool, but the "ancestor" of playing cards, tarot cards, is still a part of Western metaphysics that cannot be ignored.

    Tarot cards, transliterated from the word "tarot".It is known as the "Treasury of Nature's Mysteries". It is an ancient divination tool in the West, popular in Europe since the Middle Ages, and its status is equivalent to China's "Zhou Yi", and its origin has always been a mystery。There are a total of 78 tarot cards, including 22 cards for the big Arcana card and 56 cards for the small Arcana, which can be used separately for divination, or 78 cards can be mixed together for divination.

    It is worth mentioning that tarot cards do not refer to a fixed kind of cards, in fact, there are many kinds of tarot cards, at least thousands, but most of them are actually based on the world's three major tarot systemsand tools to provide advice. This definition is accurate, straightforward, and widely recognized by the tarot community.

    Tarot cards can be used to analyze,** and provide advice for different needs such as love, relationships, work (school), etc. Especially when you don't know what action to take, it is a very good reminder signpost, with a certain psychological suggestion function, because it is too mysterious, it belongs to the category of occultism. Some scholars use tarot divination as a psychological counselor, but generally only use the analytical function of tarot.

    Before solving the cards, the diviner should first feel the overall feeling and what kind of meaning the card type represents; And then from the explanation of each card and the overall analysis of the relationship between the whole card type can be seen the similarities between the two, both require piety and single-mindedness, and are also with the help of tools to analyze, and there are also different "hexagrams" (I Ching is sixty-four hexagrams, tarot cards are a variety of pictures), and the key is analysis,Both of these are "easy to tell hexagrams and difficult to solve hexagrams".

    So, in this regard,There are extremely high requirements for the "change of people", and it is likely that in the face of the same "hexagram", the interpretation given by the two people is completely different, and the master who really achieves the realm will not be entangled in the hexagram, but conform to the heavenly way given by the "hexagram".As a Western metaphysician said, "I can only give you a map, but how to get to your destination depends on you." "Whether it is the easy learning of the East or the tarot cards of the West, in fact, the principle is the same.

    It has similarities, and is a tool for analyzing, ** and providing suggestions for people, things, and things, so it is more mysterious.

    Oriental metaphysics: the cycle of all things, no beginning and no end! One end is but another beginning.

    Everything runs under the Tao. Western metaphysics: There is a beginning and an end, and the end is the end.

    Everything runs under God's will. In the West, meditation is a better way to borrow the natural energy of heaven and earth, while in the East, we use the energy in the body to attack and defend by absorbing energy.

    There must be similarities in the same metaphysics, because of the differences in geography and culture, so the difference should be relatively large.

    "Metaphysics" generally refers specifically to Wei and Jin metaphysics. Also called "metaphysics". Originally referred to the study and interpretation of Laozi, Zhuangzi and Zhouyi.

    Produced in the Wei and Jin dynasties. It is the main philosophical trend of the Wei and Jin dynasties, and it is a philosophical and cultural trend that emerged from the fusion of Taoism and Confucianism.

    The word "Xuan" comes from Lao Tzu's "Tao Te Ching"."Mysterious and mysterious, the door of all wonders", the words are deep and subtle. From the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty to the two Jin dynasties, more than 200 years of turmoil, and the orthodox Confucian teachings that had dominated the intellectual world for nearly 400 years began to lose their charm.

    During the Wei and Jin dynasties, the meaning of metaphysics refers to the two aspects of words and deeds, and most of them are subtle in their words, and their actions are far-reaching and far-reaching. "Xuanyuan" refers to the ontological problem of being far away from concrete things and discussing "transcendent phenomena". Therefore, the study of floating void, mystical void, and mystical distance can be called metaphysics.

    Most of the metaphysicians were celebrities at that time. The main representatives are He Yan, Wang Bi, Ruan Ji, Ji Kang, Xiang Xiu, Guo Xiang, etc. It was created on the basis of the decline of Confucianism (Jingxue) in the Han Dynasty to make up for the shortcomings of Confucianism; It is evolved and developed from the Taoist thought of the Han Dynasty and the study of Huang Lao.

    He Yan and Wang Bi put forward the theory that "famous teaching" comes from "nature". Ruan Ji and Ji Kang advocated "teaching nature in the name of Yue". Metaphysics mainly deals with metaphysical issues such as existence and absence, life and death, movement and stillness, famous religion and nature, whether the saint is affectionate or ruthless, whether there is sorrow and joy, and whether words can be fulfilled.

    In the eyes of the orthodox scholars, such talk has nothing to do with the national economy and the people, so there is"Clear talk misleads the country"said.

    In the Tang Dynasty, there was a Taoist school of heavy Xuan, and "Chongxuan" also said the first chapter of the Tao Te Ching, "Xuan Zhi Xuan, the door of all wonders". The initial formation of the Chongxuan school was the product of Wei and Jin metaphysics, and Sun Deng interpreted the Tao Te Ching with "Chongxuan as the sect" during the Wei and Jin dynasties, laying the cornerstone for the development of this school.

    Hello, as I understand it, it is like this:

    Oriental metaphysics fully absorbs the excellent philosophical thought of the unity of heaven and man, the benevolence of fraternity, and the wisdom of tolerance! For politicians, military strategists, businessmen, philosophers, cultivators, college and middle school students, as well as people who love life, positive sunshine, and vigorous people, it raises spiritual food, the great wisdom of life enlightenment, and the source of happiness and happiness in life!

    Oriental metaphysics advocates "Lao Tzu", explores the study of "Yi", advocates "noble nothing", advocates the wisdom of doing nothing and doing nothing to deal with everything in the world, conforms to the laws of nature, and actively and positively does good family affairs, national affairs, and world affairs.

    Oriental metaphysics according to the excellent traditional Chinese culture, the mysterious relationship between heaven and earth and man, to explain many things, with the "Yin and Yang", "Five Elements" and "Bagua" in the Book of Changes, combined with the similarities and differences of the flow of years, the flow of the moon, the flow of the sun, the flow of the time, according to the five elements of the mutual restraint, to judge the success or failure, good fortune and misfortune of people and things, and to judge the turn of personnel and changes with the natural law of "change from the yin to yang" and "the anode to yin", and to respond to the ever-changing philosophy of life self-cultivation without change.

    Personally, I prefer China's fortune telling, provided that it is a correct calculation, don't be deceived by those charlatans. I also look at the constellations, and many places are also accurate. Constellations mainly talk about people's personalities, because character determines fate, which makes sense.

    China's eight-character fortune-telling is also quite accurate, you can roughly grasp a person's life, and the content is relatively comprehensive. When I got a boyfriend, I gave my dad his eight characters, and let him count, the one who counted, the personality and family background or something, like I told him in detail. I swear I never told my parents and family about my boyfriend before this.

    Dad's fortune telling is a playful mentality and never obsessed. He counted me as working after the age of 26 to get on the track, and the profession I was engaged in was related to **. When I applied for the college entrance examination, my father strongly recommended that I take the normal school entrance examination and become a teacher, but I resolutely refused to obey and chose industrial design, vowing to be a designer.

    As a result, I was pushed by fate to the path of civil servants.

    But I still believe in a sentence, fate is predestined by God, and it is constantly changing, as for the direction of change, it mainly depends on your character. In fact, it is your character, and your degree of truth, goodness and beauty.

    The philosophical principle that the five elements are mutually reinforcing and mutually restraining can be reasonably explained in any matter is really amazing. We use it in medicine, architecture (Feng Shui), marriage, etc. Even when you play poker, the direction of your family members can affect your luck.

    Each has its own strengths, but Chinese metaphysics is more accurate. Because Chinese metaphysics can originate from the earliest time in Chinese history is the era of the Three Emperors, and the ancestor of metaphysics is Fuxi among the Three Emperors, Western astrology may be introduced from the East and then changed into its own science, because in China's history there are many exchanges between countries in various aspects, it is difficult to say that it was not introduced from China. Furthermore, Chinese metaphysics has a systematic way of thinking, even if the legend of the Three Emperors belongs.

    It takes Tai Chi as the beginning of heaven and earth, derives yin and yang, rotates into four images, and regenerates the eight trigrams, from which all things are born. Metaphysics: The history of Chinese metaphysics is earlier than that of the West. I will support Chinese metaphysics, because its development was more important to the ancients in ancient China.

    Most of those who study literature know metaphysics, just as we know morality, many poets, celebrities, politicians, military strategists (Wenwang Jichang, Confucius, Zhou Dunyi, Lu Jiuyuan, Wang Fuzhi, Wang Shouren, Zhu Xi. But none of us knew that they were masters of metaphysics.

    Song Ming Lixue Shao Yong said: "Immortals also have two kinds of words, the Tao is true, only in people." "Chinese metaphysics, worth seeing, studying, you will find that it has its pure world. And it is eternal, because there is no shortage of people to study it.

    China seems to have no basis at all, and it is difficult to understand, and it is often cumbersome to convert and not very accurate.

    At least the Western one is well-founded, not very difficult to understand, and has something to do with astrology and astronomy, but it is also difficult to understand in some places, and the accuracy is medium.

    If it were me, I would choose the Western constellation
