Various forms of Taoism

Taoism originated from the law of heaven and earth, and took the technique of Huang Lao as its religion. Since the establishment of Shi Tiandao Lingjun, Taoism in Shi Tian has been carried forward. After the baptism of time, Daomen people have been innovating and carrying forward, and during this period, many talents have emerged, and many people have established their own schools. On the basis of absorption, integration and inheritance, different branches have emerged.

Jiang Shang, Guiguzi, Huang Shigong, Sean, Mr. Shui Jing, Zhuge Liang, Sima Yi, Li Jing, Qiu Chuji, Liu Bowen, etc. Taoism is more like Louguan School, Zhengyi School, Longmen School, Shangqing School and Shen Xiao School. There are also many arrays in Taoism. Next, I will collect several well-known arrays in Taoism.

Interpretation of gen array: "gen" is one of the eight diagrams, which stands for mountain and also means strong or hard. Mountain is a very special thing in The Truth of the Office, which is pure Yang suction yin. Although the yang in mountainous areas is much greater than that in plain areas, the yin in mountainous areas is also much stronger than that in plain areas. There is a big chapter in the Book of Maoshan Skill, which specifically introduces the methods to deal with evil spirits in the mountains. This "root-stopping array" is one of them. As the name implies, "Jiegen Array" is an array that dilutes the power of evil spirits in the mountains. Where there are evil spirits in the mountains, all Yin Qi gather together. This "Jiegen Array" should first put on a "yin bucket" of pure yang, suck out the Yin Qi contained in the underground and put the patients in the eyes of the array, so that the underground Yin Qi will gradually gather on the patients, even if the things on them are severe.

Yang Guard Array: This is a guard array formed by Yang blood, which was invented in Qing Dynasty. It's actually a way to blind evil spirits. "Yang protection array" consists of thirty-six copper coins, which are arranged in the position of thirty-six highest day stars (according to Taoism, the constellation of the Big Dipper contains thirty-six highest day stars and seventy-two earth stars, and the highest day is Yang.

Anger Array: Its principle is to release the yang of the body to the maximum extent by using the principle of "Yang Soul Method", and gather these yang with Xiaoqiguan to form an air field, and then use the qi of Baojian to crush the yang around the body. At the moment when the gas field was broken, Yang's strength was no less than borrowing Yang. Although it only broke out in an instant, it was enough to attract the attention of all the evil spirits around, and even had the effect of shaking mountains and tigers.

Eight Yang Array: The Eight Yang Array, also known as the "golden bell jar", is an array method to prevent evil spirits or animals from rushing to the body, which is somewhat similar to borrowing Yang. When eight living people stand on the eye of the array, everyone has the power of the whole "Eight Yang Array", which is equivalent to guarding these eight people with the same yang.

Lock Ghost Array: commonly known as "Thunder Pool", it is a special method to imprison evil spirits. According to Zhouyi theory, the sun is sunny, the night is cloudy, and evil spirits can only move at night. When the ancients watched the stars, they divided the whole night sky into twenty-eight star zones, which were called "Twenty-eight Nights", and each star zone contained several stars. The method of "crossing the pool" was to lay twenty-eight copper coins around the evil spirits, artificially delineating a fake "Twenty-eight Nights" and the number of copper coins.

King Kong Wall: Put a circle of copper coins on the ground. Unlike usual, copper coins should be inserted vertically into the ground. Known as the "King Kong Wall" in Maoshan art, its practical function is very simple. Yang's materials should be used to exorcise ghosts. However, when the earth goes up after noon and Yin and Yang collide, it will form "Qi", and the role of "King Kong Wall" is to avoid the surrounding Yin.
