Fifty-five, Feng Gua Feng Gua is the fifty-fifth of the sixty-four hexagrams in the Book of Changes, which records a sacrificial activity after the King of Wu destroyed the Shang Dynasty. This is a star! According to the Annals of Bamboo Books: "In thirty-two years, five stars gathered in the house." "Guoyu Lingzhou Dove" says: "In the past, when the king of Wu attacked Yin, he was in quail fire, the moon was in the sky, the sun was in the wood law, the morning was in bucket handle, and the stars were in the sky. The position of the stars and the sun is in the northern dimension. " Huan Tan's "New Theory" is quoted in Notes on Ancient Books of Shangshu: "Jiazi Day is two years, if the sun and the moon are connected, if the five stars are connected, it will be cool, and the prince of Wu is in Mu Ye, a commercial suburb." In a word, on the day when King Wu attacked, there was an abnormal phenomenon in the sky.

False, when read as case, to, to. , refers to the place of commemoration. On appropriate days, the king should pay tribute to the temple at noon. When divination left the earthquake, the earthquake turned into thunder, separation into fire, lightning and thunder, which was like a great revolution.

Xun said: Feng Gua means Feng Da. People can see things clearly and achieve great success in their actions, so the hexagram is called Feng. "The king's personal visit to the ancestral temple" shows the importance attached to major events. "Don't worry, the best time is at noon", because at noon, the sun shines on the world, just like the king is at the top of the world. However, the sun is at the top, then it begins to tilt, the moon is perfect, and then it begins to be insufficient. Everything between heaven and earth can't last long, and everything rises and falls with the order of time. Besides, how can a person's career last forever? Besides ghosts and gods, how can it enjoy the memorial service of a surname for a long time?

Business, respect business, attach importance to business. Big, big, here refers to commemoration. Like Shao, the sun sets in the west. Eat, "Interpretation": "Eat or eat." Corrosion. Corrosion. An eclipse means losing the moon, not the full moon.
