The Implication and Symbol of Sanyang Kaitai

The implication of opening Thailand in Sanyang:

According to the Book of Changes, the connected hexagrams are yang hexagrams, the broken hexagrams are yin hexagrams, the first month is Thai hexagrams, and three yang hexagrams were born the next month. When winter goes and spring comes, yin fades and yang grows, just like good luck. It is often used to celebrate the beginning of a year or to symbolize good luck.

In the theory of Yin and Yang, October is Kun Gua. The image of pure yin. November is divination, and the sun is born in the next place. December is divination, and the second sun is born next. The first month is the Thai hexagram, and the next month is the birth of Sanyang. When winter goes and spring comes, the yin disappears and the yang grows, which is like the prosperity of Ji Heng, so it is called Sanyang Kaitai.

"Three Yang Kai Tai" is an auspicious language, which indicates the significance of spring returning to the earth and the renewal of Vientiane. This is also a blessing of prosperity and success. The symbol of the pattern is three sheep (homophonic "sheep") grazing in the warm sunshine.

Interpretation of "Sanyang Kaitai";

In ancient China, Yang was homophonic with sheep, and sheep was Yang. Literally, "three suns" is interpreted as three suns, namely the early sun, the positive sun and the late sun.

Chaoyang is bright, and its platform is bright; Zhengyang Zhongtian, whose platform is Xuan Lang; The setting sun is brilliant, and its platform shoots. They are all full of energy.

"Tai" is the name of a six-pointed star. When I arrived in Kun, heaven and earth met and everything passed away. When we meet "Tai", it is always auspicious. Kaitai's "seeking wealth" is to make a fortune; To propose is to open the door to love.

Sheep are auspicious. In the ancient court, the car was usually called a sheep cart, which meant good luck. People often say that "three sheep open Thailand" is one of the auspicious words.

For example, smooth sailing, two dragons taking off, three sheep in Thailand, four seasons in peace, five blessings, six or six big luck, seven stars shining high, all directions to make money, 99 in one, perfect, all the best, all the best, all the best.

In China folk customs, sheep are often written as "auspicious sheep". Sheep, docile, gentle and affectionate, have been the partners of Chinese ancestors since ancient times and are deeply loved by people.

In ancient Oracle Bone Inscriptions in China, the word "beauty" in the shape of a sheep with a big horn on its head was a symbol of beauty. During the Ming and Qing Dynasties, folklore was represented by Qingyang, Hongyang and Baiyang respectively, representing the past, present and future.

"Three sheep open Thailand" is an auspicious language, and so is Wuyang. There is a city in the south, which is the first of the five sheep. According to legend, sheep is the god of grains and will bring good luck to Guangzhou.

"Taiping Magnolia" quoted Jin Peiyuan's "Guangzhou Ji" and contained the legend of Wuyang. Until the early Qing Dynasty, the story of Wuyang was still talked about by local people. According to Qu Dajun's "Guangzhou Newspeak", there were five immortals in the ancient South China Sea, each wearing different colors of clothes and riding different colors of sheep. They came to Guangzhou and presented six ears of grain to people, hoping that there would never be a famine.

Then, five immortals flew away and five sheep turned into stones. Five immortals and five sheep bring good harvest. Guangzhou, referred to as Yangcheng for short, or Guangzhou for short, all originated from the legend of Wuyang. Today, the Wuyang stone carving stands in Yuexiu Mountain Park, which is the symbol of Guangzhou.
