Five phases: two different relationships

Generation follows wood, fire, earth, metal and water. Control moves two places along that order. Switch the relationship and select a phase to trace its arrow. Control is not automatically bad, nor is generation automatically beneficial.

Trigrams: read the lines from bottom to top

Three lines, each yin or yang, give eight combinations. A solid line is yang; a broken line is yin. The first line is at the bottom. Toggle a line to compare the name and natural image. This does not assign Early or Later Heaven directions or turn a click into divination.

Natural images follow the Shuo Gua commentary of the Zhou Yi; the line-order diagram is drawn for MingSez. Read the primary text

Dream reading: scene → association → evidence boundary

   Ask about support or reaching an endpoint, if that fits the dreamer's own association.

   →

3. 3 · What it cannot establish

   Does not guarantee success in a real project.

An original teaching model, not a personal inference algorithm derived from a classical text. The water-dream article explains the historical comparison and differing plots.
