    Hexagram interpretation:<\/strong><\/div>\n\n\n\n
    \"Bi\" means closeness. In this hexagram, the upper trigram \"Kan\" represents water. The lower trigram \"Kun\" represents earth. Combining these two, it means: covering the ground with water, the water will inevitably seep into the soil, becoming close and integrated as one. Furthermore, the five \"yang\" lines are in positions of nobility, closely interacting with the other five \"yin\" lines, becoming united. This signifies the Son of Heaven loving and embracing the common people, and the common people believing in and supporting the Son of Heaven, which is an auspicious omen. Therefore, this hexagram is named \"Bi Hexagram\" based on its symbolic meaning.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

    Interpretation of fortune stick person<\/h4>\n\n\n\n
    \n
    Wang Yun (137-192), courtesy name Zishi, was from Qi, Taiyuan, Bing Province (present-day Qi County, Shanxi). He was an official of the Eastern Han Dynasty and served as Situ and Shangshu Ling in the early years of Emperor Xian of Han's reign. At that time, the emperor was merely a puppet, and Dong Zhuo held great power. Wang Yun successfully planned and executed the assassination of Dong Zhuo. In the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, this tale of wisdom is found in the eighth chapter, \u201cChancellor Wang Cunningly Devises the Stratagem of Connected Plots; Grand Tutor Dong Rashly Rages at Phoenix Pavilion.\u201d<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

    Annotation<\/h4>\n\n\n\n
    \n
    All effort is in vain, all painstaking effort is wasted.\nLoyal ministers ponder in secret depth: Wang Yun and Diao Chan, after careful deliberation, decided to set up the \"Chain Stratagem\" to make Dong Zhuo and Lu Bu, father and son, kill each other.\nNow the state can be preserved for Han: The country is now the territory of the Han dynasty.\nLeaving a name in history is the best sound: General Lu Bu, by recognizing a thief as his father, will surely be infamous for eternity. Wouldn't it be better for you and I to work together to eliminate traitors for the Han dynasty and be recorded in history?<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
    \n

    Vernacular<\/h4>\n\n\n\n
    \n
    In the late Eastern Han dynasty, the emperor was merely a puppet, and Dong Zhuo held great power. Wang Yun successfully devised a stratagem called the \"Chain Stratagem\" to make Dong Zhuo and L\u00fc Bu, father and son, slaughter each other. In the end, the Eastern Han empire was restored, and L\u00fc Bu's name was immortalized in history.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

    Fortune telling by lot<\/h4>\n\n\n\n
    \n
    If you draw this lot, you must be loyal and upright in all things, and not go along with others in corrupt practices. The spring and summer are not good; great power will fall into the hands of treacherous people, and villains will be in power. Those involved must be careful. After autumn, things will improve, and in winter, both wealth and official positions will be favorable. Luck: Smooth. Career: Promising. Wealth: Profitable. Marriage: Can be successful. Pregnancy: Born male. Healing: Can recover after three months. For elderly illness, \"official specter\" holding the fort, difficult to cure. Wood relates to the liver; improvement can be expected in autumn. Use slow medicine, meaning a nourishing and gentle treatment method. Seek a renowned doctor in the west.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

    Divination Meaning<\/h4>\n\n\n\n
    \n
    The name of this hexagram, \"Bi,\" means to be in harmony and to be close. It reveals the principle that superiors and inferiors, and people in general, should rely on each other closely and get along amicably. However, it also opposes unprincipled and indiscriminate closeness. When you obtain this hexagram, all your close friends will come to help you achieve your goals smoothly. However, swiftness and proactivity are valued above all else. Those who act quickly will seize the initiative, while delays and procrastination will be very disadvantageous.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n <\/div><\/section>","protected":false},"featured_media":6888,"menu_order":8,"template":"","class_list":["post-6887","fortune-sticks","type-fortune-sticks","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"blocksy_meta":[],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/goldenballboy.wp-mak.ing\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/fortune-sticks\/6887","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/goldenballboy.wp-mak.ing\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/fortune-sticks"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/goldenballboy.wp-mak.ing\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/fortune-sticks"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/goldenballboy.wp-mak.ing\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/6888"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/goldenballboy.wp-mak.ing\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=6887"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
