Are water and fire yin or yang?
This is a very interesting question,
because of the yin and yang attributes of water and fire,
in the acquired gossip , the water and fire yin and yang hexagrams,
and in real life, the relationship between water and fire Classified as yin and yang,
seems to be in conflict, like a paradox.
Let’s take a look at the acquired gossip first. The Li hexagram is fire,
Li fire is Yin, and the direction represents the south.
The family members are the middle girls;
Kan hexagram is water, Kanshui, and belongs to Yang.
The direction represents the north, and the family members are He is a middle-aged man.
In real life, water and fire are compared:
water tends to be formed, sinking, moist, and calm;
fire tends to be vaporized, upward, hot, and irritable.
The yin and yang attributes are: water is yin and fire is yang.
This problem arises. Is it because the gossip is wrong the day after tomorrow, or is it wrong in real life?
There is a yin and yang attribute of water and fire.
It suddenly makes people confused about north and south.
Could it be that our sages did not differentiate between yin and yang?
Is there a paradox in the logic of our I Ching?
If you study and interpret it carefully, you will marvel at the wisdom hidden in our
I Ching, the first of the hundred classics.
Let’s take a look first, what is the state of fire?
It is neither solid, liquid, nor gaseous.
It is not even a substance. The outermost layer of the flame is plasma, and
the inside of the flame is a chemical reaction.
To put it bluntly, fire is just a chemical reaction of combustion.
It is just a feeling in our senses.
Fire is not a real object, and the physical image is virtual, so the hexagram is Yin;
Water is liquid and is real. of.
So, water is Yang.
I don’t know how our ancients,
saw the essence through phenomena,
but the Book of Changes is so great.
So the yin and yang attributes of water and fire,
When it is the body, when it is the hexagram image, water is yang, and fire is yin;
When it is used, when it is the function, water is yin and fire is yang.
If we regard the innate Bagua and the acquired Bagua as the physical and functional relationship of the universe, then the yin and yang attributes of water and fire are the individual physical and functional relationships, which are reflected in the Yin and Yang and the Five Elements.
is the wisdom that is not easy to change. It is reflected in the mutual embrace of yin and yang, the interaction of yin and yang,
you have me, I have you, the unity of opposites and the relationship.
