Dragon Horse Behind the River Map

When Fuxi was in ancient times, a dragon horse emerged from the Yellow River in Mengjin County, northeast of Luoyang, carrying the "River Map" and dedicated it to Fuxi. Through Fuxi's observation of River Map , Fuxi understood the principle of yin and yang interaction, and based on this, he evolved into the Eight Trigrams, which later became the source of " Zhouyi ".

At the winter solstice, yang returns, and the yang energy gradually increases; to the vernal equinox on the left, yang energy is greater than when it just occurred; after the vernal equinox equinox yang becomes stronger; when the summer solstice, yin energy reaches its extreme, yin energy is generated, that is, "Yang of the cathode of the cathode"; when the hronicity point reaches its peak, yin energy is generated, that is, "Yang of the cathode of the cathode"; when the hronicity point reaches its hronicity, yang energy weakens and yin energy gradually increases. The changes in the four seasons are the cycle of reincarnation in movement.

Fuxi, based on combining astronomy, geography and river map, took things from afar and from the body, imitating the yin and yang mathematics of all things in the world, and creating a numerical model that transcends the times - Bagua (Innate Bagua)
