Tianlai Xiaozi’s “Two-Dimensional Mutual Hexagram Operating System” is a playful yet profound exploration of the I Ching’s sixty-four hexagrams. It’s a method that simplifies, reconfigures, and distills the essence of life’s dynamics. Let’s break down this exhilarating approach step by step:
0. The Two-Dimensional Mutual Hexagram Operating System
This system simplifies I Ching interpretation by extracting and reconstructing the core elements of each hexagram. It’s about breaking free from rigid structures and discovering the dynamic patterns hidden within.
1. Extract the Middle Four Lines: Discard Top and Bottom Lines
• Bottom Line (Initial Line): Represents “not yet born,” symbolizing potential not yet realized.
• Top Line (Final Line): Represents “already deceased,” symbolizing what is concluded or settled.
• Middle Four Lines: Represent “this life, this moment,” the active forces of the present reality.
This emphasizes the philosophy that life’s truth lies in the present moment. The past is gone, the future is unborn; the middle four lines capture the dynamic, living reality.
2. Create a New Hexagram: Reconfigure the Middle Four Lines
Take the extracted middle four lines and reassign them:
• Bottom Three Lines: Form the lower trigram.
• Top Three Lines: Form the upper trigram.
This playful reconfiguration is like rearranging the puzzle pieces of life to form new possibilities and insights.
3. The Overlapping Middle Lines: The Secret of Communication
Concerned about the two middle lines overlapping in the new hexagram? Tianlai Xiaozi laughs, saying:
“This is the fun part!”
• Overlapping Middle Lines: Symbolize interwoven communication in the present.
• Insight: All life is interconnected and overlapping. Everything influences everything else. The dynamic overlap is where true transformation happens.
4. Two Iterations of the Mutual Hexagram Process
1. First Operation: Reduces the original 64 hexagrams to 16 hexagrams.
2. Second Operation: Further reduces 16 hexagrams to 4 ultimate hexagrams.
Tianlai Xiaozi calls these “The Four-Dimensional Hexagrams of the I Ching.”
5. The Four Ultimate Hexagrams: Qian, Kun, Jiji, and Weiji
• Qian (☰): Pure Yang, representing creation, initiation, and the force of Heaven.
• Kun (☷): Pure Yin, representing receptivity, nurturing, and the force of Earth.
• Jiji (Water Fire Already Crossing): Completion, harmony of Yin and Yang.
• Weiji (Fire Water Not Yet Crossing): Incompletion, the state of dynamic potential.
These four hexagrams encapsulate the cycle of life and the universe: from inception to completion, from fulfillment to new potential. Qian and Kun open the cycle, while Jiji and Weiji signify its perpetual motion.
6. Tianlai Xiaozi’s Wisdom Through Play
This system reveals that:
1. Simplification and Reconstruction: Cut away the excess and focus on the core truth.
2. Live in the Present: The middle four lines are the essence of now, the active realm of life.
3. Interconnectedness: The overlapping lines reflect the reality of interwoven relationships.
4. Universal Cycles: From 64 to 4 hexagrams, the system captures the eternal dance of creation, fulfillment, and potential.
Get it now? Playing with the I Ching is playing with the cosmos, with life, and with the present you!
提示词：天来小子彻底玩转周易六十四卦：0. 二次元互卦操作系统。1. 周易六十四卦不管哪一个卦，看见了就简单粗暴地把中间四爻抽出来，丢弃上下二爻。2. 为什么？因为初爻“还没出世”而上爻“已经去世”，唯有中间四爻是“今生今世”，象征活在当下的运转乾坤的力量！3. 取出来的中间四爻可以变成一个新卦。怎么操作？简单极了！把下三爻当下卦，把上三爻当上卦。4. 你急了，说：且慢！ 那不是玩臭吗？ 新的一卦的中间二爻是重叠的！5. 天来小子哈哈大笑，笑声震动了玉皇大帝的宫殿： 什么玩臭？好玩就在这里！你知道中间二爻象征什么吗？象征今生今世的互相重叠的沟通能力啊！6. 你恍然大悟： 噢！一切生命都是互相重叠的！ 我说： 你开窍了！7. 让我继续说：经过一次互卦操作，六十四卦会只剩下四分之一，也就是十六卦（下一篇博客来看这16卦是何方神圣）。8. 再进行第二次的互卦操作，十六卦就会进一步减少到终极的四卦，天来小子给这四卦命名为“周易四维”。9. 猜猜看？是哪四卦？ 宾果！答对了，是周易六十四卦的开头的乾坤二卦与结尾的既济·未济二卦！10. 看！是不是很好玩啊？
