Yinyangism is a school of thought that was popular from the end of the Warring States period to the beginning of the Han Dynasty, and Zou Yan of Qi is its representative. "Historical Records" called it: "A deep look at the news of yin and yang, and make a strange change." "Lü's Spring and Autumn" was directly influenced by Zou Yan's theory. Generally speaking, Zou Yan's Yin-Yang thought is manifested in the combination of ancient mathematical ideas and the theory of the five elements of Yin and Yang, and attempts to further develop it to construct a cosmic schema and explain the causes of natural phenomena and their changing laws.

It is said that in the Warring States Period, there was a school of thought that advocated the doctrine of yin and yang and the five elements, called the "Yin and Yang Family", and at that time, Zou Yan and Zou Shuang, who were from Qi State, were the main representatives. The "Yin and Yang Theory" regards "Yin" and "Yang" as two mutually beneficial synergies within things, and believes that they are the laws of generation that give birth to all things in heaven and earth. This is exactly what Lao Tzu said constitutes the concept of the world: "Tao gives birth to one, life to two, two to three, three to all things, all things negative yin and embrace yang, impulsive thinking harmony." With the complexity and variability of the world, the simple way of thinking about the dichotomy of everything can no longer explain the phenomena that are happening in front of us. As a result, a new mode of thinking was derived, such as "Bagua", which is used to represent the movement and change of yin and yang, representing various natural phenomena, which can be used to calculate the passage of time, natural changes and various encounters in life. The "Five Elements Theory" is based on the theory that the five basic substances of gold, wood, water, fire, and earth "constantly circulate and change", and develop the concept that the five elements are mutually reinforcing and mutually reinforcing. Studying the theory of the five elements of yin and yang, it is possible to formulate a calendar from the calculation of the movement of celestial bodies. Master everything in the world. Later, the "astronomers" who specialized in the study of celestial bodies, the "almanacists" who studied the calendar, and the "Five Elements" developed to study the calendar. The organization formed by the gathering of the Yin-Yang family is called "Yin-Yang Dao". Japan's "Yin-Yang Dao" originated from the Yin-Yang Five Elements Doctrine during the period of the Hundred Schools of Thought in China. In the era of ignorance and scientific famine, in order to avoid disasters, people always hoped to know in advance about the changes in heaven and earth, and the emergence of the "Yin and Yang Five Elements Theory" turned this wish into reality. Its representative classic is the Book of Changes, which has been handed down since the Zhou Dynasty.

Onmyoji's manipulative god is the main mana skill of an onmyoji. There are those who make a contract through a sealing letter, there are those who submit through the method of surrendering through the sealing array, and there are those who voluntarily submit it as a friend, and the general onmyoji wears a flowing dysprosium to cooperate with the three knots of "dyeing and paying the Spring and Autumn Period, and Han Sancai, and Shura" to produce a contract. Guide the gods to become their own gods. And detach himself from desires. When you need help in ordinary times, you can use the "Wood Spirit Imperial Coins, Ancient Soldiers, and Five-Tone Gold" contract to summon spells. As long as you recite the agreed spell, you can control and summon it at any time. Even human souls can be used. There are also living creatures as Shiki-gods. Shikigami is a type of Japanese puppetry, which summons creatures from other dimensions with its own spiritual power. Unlike puppetry, he operates with living creatures. To put it simply. There is a great similarity with Western summoning. However, the existence of Shikigami is one with the caster. The stronger the caster's mental power, the more powerful Shikigami can wield. Ordinary people can also make a contract with the gods, but it takes a long time to reach the power of the Onmyoji. It is also for this reason that in the Japanese bushido tradition, ordinary people often have a family style god who protects the family, and a style god that inherits it. This is all part of Japan's own nature. Compared with the summoning in the West, it is much simpler, and it is based on summoning creatures and demon gods from other worlds. In the 6th century AD, China's Yin-Yang Five Elements Doctrine, which mixed Taoist mantras with Esoteric divination, was introduced to Japan. After landing in Japan, a lot of local culture was infiltrated, and a unique "Onmyodo" was formed. However, when the term officially appeared in Japanese historical records, it was already in the 10th century. At this time, the Yin-Yang Dao was different from the early Chinese Yin-Yang thought, and it had both divination, sacrifice, astronomy, calendar, and other applications, from the national fortune to the emperor's order, down to the affairs of the common people, which could be used to explain. Prince Shotoku of the Suiko Dynasty was one of the best people in this discipline. Deeply believing in Buddhism, he took into account the coordination of the five elements of yin and yang when formulating the "12 Orders of Crown" and the color of clothing, which had a great impact on Japanese society.

The dominant idea of 'yin and yang' is to determine politics with the five elements, and the concept was first seen in the Book of Changes, and the concept of 'five elements' was first seen in the Book of Changes, but the emergence of the two concepts can be traced back to a much longer era. By the Warring States Period, Yin and Yang and the Five Elements gradually converged to form a new conceptual model, which was a cosmology based on the theory of 'Yin and Yang grow and decline, and the Five Elements shift'. The Yin-Yang School was one of the important schools of thought during the Warring States Period, and was named after the theory of the five elements of Yin and Yang and the use of it to explain social personnel. This school of thought originated from the ruling class in charge of the astronomical calendar in ancient times, also known as the 'Yin and Yang Five Elements School' or 'Yin and Yang Five Elements School'. One of the "100 Schools of Thought": Liu Xin's "Hanshu, Art and Literature, Zhuzilu" contains more than 100 famous works, and it is listed as one of the "Nine Streams and Ten Schools". Later books such as the Sui Shu Jing Ji Zhi and the Siku Quanshu General Catalogue raised the number of "Zhuzi Baijia" (an academic school that emerged from the pre-Qin to the Han dynasties) to a thousand. However, there are only dozens of the most famous schools that are widely spread and have great influence, including: Confucianism, Taoism, Yin and Yang, Legalism, Celebrity, Moism, Zongheng, Peasants, Miscellaneous, Novelists, etc.

Representative figures. Zou Yan (c. 305 BC to 240 BC), a native of Qi (now Linzi, Zibo City, Shandong), a representative of the Yin and Yang family, was known as Tan Tianyan and Zou Zi because of his great knowledge and grand debate. There are some errors in his deeds recorded in the old history, but it is certain that he was from the late Warring States period. Zou Yan once traveled to the Jixia School Palace, and his knowledge was more important than Qi. When he arrived in Wei, he was greeted by King Wei Hui. When he arrived at Zhao, Pingyuan Jun treated him as a guest and host. When he arrived at Yan, King Yan Zhao personally swept the dust in front of him, listened to his lectures, built a stone palace for him, and performed disciple rituals. Therefore, it is speculated that he may have died after the Battle of Changping. Zou Yan's books "Zou Zi" and "The End of Zou Zi" are said to have more than 100,000 words, but they have long been lost. At present, only some passages of "Lü's Spring and Autumn" and Sima Qian's "Historical Records" can show his thoughts. Abe Haruaki's own book "Harumi Yihua", Japanese historians have verified that this book is the only one written by Abe Harumaki himself, and there are various detailed yin and yang materials in the book, such as: All living things, including people, are bound by various things. The existence of bondage is one of the laws of nature. People have to face the "shackles" of "time", and the body is a container for the soul. It also binds the soul. Man cannot shake off the shackles of bondage, and many of the shackles of bondage are common to all living beings, not to man. There is only one kind of shackle in the world that is unique to people, and the energy shackles of this shackle, as soon as people say it, they can't take back what they just said, and what they say can't be regarded as if it didn't happen. If you worry that bad things may happen to yourself, such bad things will definitely happen. Therefore, the ancients believed that women wore Yunhai stone bracelets, and men wore red bamboo stone jewelry. Add "Tsuhoi Hulu, Dream Window Shushi, Kibi Tanba" to the seal book. Thus transshipment Wangfu

The so-called yin and yang is an abstraction of the ancients about the two opposite properties of all things in the universe. It is also a philosophical category of the unity of opposites in the universe and the laws of thinking. The Chinese sages came up with the word 'yin and yang' to represent the unity of opposites in which all things correspond to each other and form opposites, that is, the so-called 'all things negative yin and embrace yang' in "Lao Tzu", and the so-called "one yin and one yang is the Tao" in "Yi Chuan". The Book of Changes is about the mathematical and philosophical aspects of the changes of 'yin and yang'. Its basic idea: Yin and Yang sympathize to give birth to all things in the universe, and all things in the universe are the unity of opposites of yin and yang. The theory of yin and yang was established on the basis of the theory of qi. And on the basis of the gas theory. Further think of heaven and earth. Sun and moon, day and night, clear. The result of the change of movement such as water, fire, temperature and coolness, etc., the two opposite concepts of 'yin' and 'yang' are abstracted out. Yin and Yang are abstract concepts rather than concrete things, so 'Yin and Yang are famous and invisible' (Lingshu Yin and Yang System Sun and Moon). Yin represents the characteristics of passivity, retreat, and weakness and the things and phenomena that have these characteristics, and the yang represents the characteristics of positivity, progress, and strength and the things and phenomena that have these characteristics. The basic content of the Yin-Yang Doctrine can be encapsulated in eight characters: 'opposite, mutual root, growth and decline, and transformation'.

The Yin and Yang family is from Fangshi. According to Liu Xin's "Seven Strategies", the "Hanshu Art Chronicle" divides the number of techniques of the monks into six types. The first is astronomy: "Astronomers, the twenty-eight nakshatras, the five stars of the sun and the moon, with the auspicious and evil signs." The second is the almanac: "The chronicler, the position of the four hours of the order, the festival of the equinox, the sun, the moon and the five stars, in order to test the reality of killing in the cold and summer???." The misfortune and the joy of Jilong are all out of the way. The third is the five elements: "The law also begins with the five virtues and ends, and pushes it to the extreme." "The fourth type is the yarrow turtle. These are the two main methods used in ancient Chinese divination. The latter method is to drill a round depression in a well-polished tortoise shell or animal bone and then burn it with fire. Around the place where the drill was drilled, cracks appeared. According to these cracks. It is said that you can know the good luck of the things that Lu Dao asked. This method is called "divination". In the former method, the history of witches uses the stem of yarrow to operate according to a certain procedure, and obtains a certain number of combinations, and then checks the "Book of Changes" to explain and determine the good and evil. This method is called "Zheng". The hexagrams and epigrams of the Book of Changes were originally used for the sake of Zheng. The fifth type is miscellaneous. The sixth is the form method. These included physiognomy and what came to be known as "Feng Shui". The basic idea of Feng Shui is that man is a product of the universe. Therefore. People's dwellings and burial places must be arranged in a way that is in harmony with the forces of nature, i.e. Feng Shui.

"Shangshu Hongfan" 'Five elements: one is water, two is fire, three is wood, four is gold, and five is earth. The ancients believed that everything in the universe was made up of these five basic substances. It is also a system of categories about the social properties of the universe and the laws of their change. The word "line" in the five elements has the meaning of "running", so the five elements contain a very important concept, that is, the concept of change and operation, that is, "mutual generation" and "mutual restraint". The Five Elements Theory does not refer to the five concrete substances of wood, fire, earth, gold, and water themselves, but refers to the abstract generalization of the five different properties. It takes the correspondence between heaven and man as the guiding ideology, takes the five behaviors as the center, takes the five directions of the spatial structure, the five seasons of the time structure, and the five organs of the human body structure as the basic framework, and summarizes various things in the natural world according to their attributes. Those that have the characteristics of germination and softness belong to wood, those that have the characteristics of yang heat and inflammation belong to fire, those that have the characteristics of long-nourishing and development belong to earth, those that have the characteristics of tranquility and harvesting belong to gold, and those that have the characteristics of cold, moisturizing, and falling and hiding belong to water. It connects the life activities of the human body with the phenomena of the natural world, and forms a five-element structural system that connects the internal and external environment, which is used to explain the unity of the human body and the natural and natural environment. A table can be found at the end of the article. The great Chinese medicine in China contains the five elements and forms a Chinese medicine system. The meaning of the five elements is as follows. Wood makes a fire. It is because the wood is warm, the fire lurks in it, and the wood is drilled to make a fire, so the wood makes a fire.; Fire produces earth, because the fire is hot, so it can burn wood, and after the wood is burned, it becomes ashes, and ash is earth, so fire produces earth. Native gold, because gold needs to be hidden in stone. Attached to the mountain. Born with Jinrun, gathering soil into mountains, there are mountains and stones, so the soil is born of gold; Jin Shengshui. Because the qi of less yin (golden qi) is warm and moist. Kim lives on the water. Pin forging gold can also be turned into water, so gold gives birth to water.; Aquatic wood, because the water is warm and moist, the tree grows. So aquatic wood. The meaning of the five elements is because of the nature of heaven and earth. The crowd is better than the widow, so the water is better than the fire, the essence is better than the strong, the fire is better than the gold, the steel is better than the soft, the gold is better than the wood, the special is better than the scattered, so the wood is better than the soil, the real is better than the virtual, the soil is better than the water. The restraint of the five elements is as follows. 1 gold: Jin Wang gets fire, Fang Cheng utensils.; Gold can produce water, water is more gold and sink; strong gold gets water, and the party frustrates its edge.; Gold can overcome wood, wood is more gold and lacking; wood is weak and gold, it will be cut and broken.; The soil can produce gold, and the gold changes in the soil. 2 fire: fire is prosperous and water, and the party becomes a mutual benefit; Fire can give birth to the earth, and the soil is more fire-like; Fire can overcome gold, gold is more fire extinguished; gold is weak when it encounters fire, it will be melted; Fire depends on wood, wood is more fiery, wood can make fire, fire is more wood. 3. Water: The water is prosperous and the soil is abundant, and the square becomes a pond and marsh.; Water can grow wood, wood shrinks more; strong water gets wood, and then it discharges its potential. Water can overcome fire, fire is dry and water is dry, fire is weak and water is not extinguished. Water depends on gold, gold is turbid, gold can produce water, water is gold, gold sinks. 4 soil: Tuwang has to get wood, so that it can be dredged.; The soil can produce gold, and the gold is more than the soil; The soil can overcome the water, and the water is more than the soil flow; the water is weak and the soil is silted.;; The earth is born by fire, and the fire is scorched, and the fire can produce the earth, and the earth is obscure. 5 wood: Mu Wang gets gold, Fang Cheng beams; Wood can make fire, fire is more wood burning; strong wood gets fire, and it turns its stubbornness. Wood can overcome the soil, the soil is more woody, and the soil is weak and the wood is falling. Wood is born in water, and the water is more woody, and the water can grow wood, and the wood is more and shrinking.

As an abstract concept, the idea of yin and yang mainly originates from Confucianism, founded by Confucius, and the 'Six Classics' advocated by Confucianism. "Zhou Yi" is regarded as a Confucian classic, can only explain that the text is the birthplace of a hundred schools of thought, the earth is only seen by the world today, the ancient philosophers only have heaven and earth in their minds, yin and yang, day and night, four seasons, sunny, the other side of the earth is opposite, the result of opposition must have yin and yang, I am yin and yang is opposed to yang, I am yang and then opposed to yin, thousands of years later, Confucianism and Taoism yin and yang, vertical and horizontal Buddhism, who remembers the sons of a hundred schools, where does the hundred schools of thought come from? It is similar to where human beings came from, and the process of finding yin and yang is the process of finding the origin of human beings. In terms of the concept of nature, he put forward the theory of the evolution of the universe by using the concept of yin and yang in the "Zhou Yi"; from the "division of Kyushu" in the "Shangshu and Yu Gong", he put forward the theory of "great Kyushu", and believed that China is the state of Chixian Shenzhou, with small Kyushu in it and one of the "big Kyushu" on the outside (Hu Shi once greatly praised this geographical concept of the Yin-Yang family in his "Long Compilation of the History of Chinese Medieval Thought"; in terms of historical view, he transformed the concept of the five elements in "Shangshu Hongfan" into "the end of the five virtues" He believes that the succession of dynasties in the past dynasties is dominated by the five elements, and in terms of political ethics, he also "stops at benevolence, righteousness and frugality, and the benevolence of the six relatives of the monarch and the minister", and agrees with the Confucian doctrine of benevolence and righteousness. At the same time, it emphasizes that 'Yin and Yang are the great shun', which contains some knowledge of astronomy, calendar, meteorology and geography and has certain scientific value.

The five virtues are also known as the 'five virtues transfer'. Zou Yan, the representative of the Yin-Yang family, used the theory of the five elements of Yin and Yang to explain the evolution of the universe and the rise and fall of history, and created the theory of 'the end of the five virtues', which had a great influence. Later, Lü Buwei's "Lü's Spring and Autumn Period", Dong Zhongshu's "Spring and Autumn Dew", and Liu Xiang's "The Biography of Hong Fan's Five Elements" (Liang Rengong mentioned the harm of the Yin and Yang Doctrine in his "Anthology of the Ice Drinking Room: The Origin of the Five Elements of Yin and Yang"...... Zou Yan, Dong Zhongshu, and Liu Xiang. It can be seen that Yin and Yang are essential) and so on, all of which are based on the five behaviors of Yin and Yang. 'Five virtues' refers to the attributes of the five elements, namely earth, wood, gold, water, and fire. According to the Yin-Yang family, all things in the universe correspond to the five elements and have their own virtues, and the operation of the Heavenly Dao, the changes in the human world, and the replacement of dynasties are the results of the 'transfer of the five virtues'. Its purpose was to argue for the social changes of the time, but it fell into the theory of historical cycles.

At the beginning of the Han Dynasty, the Yin-Yang School still existed, and after Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty abolished the Hundred Schools, part of the content was integrated into the Confucian ideological system, and part of the content was absorbed by the original Taoism, and the Yin-Yang School as an independent school was gone.

The Onmyoji was one of the main schools of thought during the Warring States period. With the purpose of advocating the theory of yin and yang and five elements, it is called Yin and Yangjia, also known as "Yin and Yang Five Elements" or "Five Elements". "Hanshu Art and Literature Chronicles" is listed as one of the "Nine Streams". The main representative figures are Zou Yan of the Qi State at the end of the Warring States Period. Yin and Yang originally refer to two opposing aspects of things, "one yin and one yang is the Tao" (Zhou Yi Zhi Biography), which Zhuangzi defines as the contradictory and opposing elements contained in qi, "Yin and Yang, the great one of qi" (Zhuangzi Zeyang). The Yin-Yang family mystified the changes caused by the contradictory effects of Yin and Yang, "deeply observing the news of Yin and Yang, and making strange changes" (Sima Qian, "Historical Records: The Biography of Mencius Xunqing"). The "Five Elements" were first seen in "Shangshu Hongfan": "Five elements: one is water, two is fire, three is wood, four is gold, and five is earth. During the Warring States Period, the Five Elements Theory was quite popular, and there were views that "wood gives birth to fire, fire gives birth to earth, earth gives birth to gold, gold gives birth to water, and water gives birth to wood" and "water wins fire, fire wins gold, gold wins wood, wood wins earth, and earth wins water". The Yin-Yang family takes the five elements as the five virtues, and believes that the transmutation of historical dynasties is to abide by the way of the five elements of mutual growth and victory, which is the 'end of the five virtues'. Sima Qian said that Zou Yan "said that since the dissection of heaven and earth, the five virtues have been transferred, and each has its own suitability, and it should be in line with Ruozi" ("Historical Records: The Biography of Mencius Xunqing"). The cyclic changes of the five elements determine the replacement of historical dynasties, such as the changes of the Xia, Shang, and Zhou dynasties, that is, Jin (Shang) Kemu (Xia), Huo (Zhou) Kejin, and the Qin and Han rulers all used this to find a basis for the rationality of their rule, which had a great impact on later generations, especially the Han Dynasty. "Hanshu Art and Literature Chronicles" cloud: "The flow of the Yin and Yang family, covering the officials of Xihe, respecting the Haotian, the sun, the moon and the stars, respecting the people, this is also its director." "As a school, the Yin-Yang family ceased to exist after the Wei and Jin dynasties. "Hanshu Art and Literature Chronicles" recorded the works of the Yin and Yang family, "21 families, 369 articles", none of which have been handed down. However, from Dong Zhongshu's "Spring and Autumn Dew", we can also see some of the doctrinal content of the Yin and Yang family. The importance of Yin-Yang in the development of Chinese thought is a concretization of the influence of the natural world on human resources. This kind of thinking can also be seen in the yellow calendar, agricultural books, and lunar calendars. (To be continued......)
