The life meaning of the twelve hexagrams

In ancient times, China people divided 365 days of the year into 72 periods, and then observed the meteorological changes in each period at a fixed location in the Central Plains, with observation records for hundreds and thousands of years. Please think about what kind of accumulation it will be. It certainly makes you stand in this place, and you can accurately predict the general change probability or statistical probability of this weather in each climate, can't you?

For example, among the 24 solar terms today, there is a solar term called Qingming. In fact, in the early years of Tomb-Sweeping Day, it was actually called Hou, that is, early spring, and around the end of March and the beginning of April in the solar calendar, there were five days to stand in the Central Plains. In most years, hundreds of years and thousands of years of observation, it is found that it always rains more in the first two days, and then it is sunny in the next two or three days. After the rain, the air is particularly clear, so it is named "Qingming".

As we all know, in ancient China, we saw a saying in Romance of the Three Kingdoms, "Zhuge Liang borrowed the east wind". In fact, China ancient literati, with higher education, are generally very familiar with two things. In addition to China's classics and a subset of history, the first is Chinese medicine. Second, I ching. Therefore, when doctors in ancient China treated the families of literati, they all prescribed prescriptions for them.

Why let literati try prescriptions? Because all literati basically understand Chinese medicine. Zhuge Liang borrowed the east wind, which was actually a phenomenon that ancient scholars, or at least great scholars, could grasp, using this "Twelve Figures". This "Twelve-divination Diagram" has made a detailed statistical analysis of meteorology, and has formed a powerful basic tool for weather forecasting in the accumulation of hundreds of years, which is the origin of this "Twelve-divination Diagram".
