Regarding to the metaphysics, I Ching teaches us 3 abstract concepts: change, easy, and non-change.
Regarding to the physics, I Ching teaches us 3 concrete images: number, philosophy and phenomenon. Now, how can we take use of these 3 images?

1. Number:
To use the numbers from Lo Shu and Ho Tu to make prediction for people’s future. According to Chinese legends, the pre-historic Emperor Yu wanted to control the disasters of rivers but useless; suddenly, a turtle came to the river Lo which carried a square picture, and there’re some numbers on the square. For Lo Shu, Lo means the name of river; Shu means book or picture. At the same time, a dragon horse (in the traditional Chinese, dragon is a lucky symbol) came from the Yellow River and carried another picture with different numbers. For Ho Tu, Ho means the name of Yellow River, Tu means the picture. It is said that these numbers and pictures help the Emperor Yu controlled the disasters from rivers. Since then, many of Chinese fortune-tellers believe that the numbers have a kind of magic power and use them to predict the destiny of people.
 

2. Philosophy:
“Everything is changing gradually in the universe” and “Nothing can maintain forever without changing.” are the main concepts in I Ching. From the modern history point of views, we can see that it is true. The general trend is that there is bound to be unified after prolonged division; division after prolonged unification. For example, the East Germany & West Germany (unification in 1990), the South Vietnam & North Vietnam(unification in 1976), the South Korea & North Korea, and China & Taiwan. Especially for the two sides of Taiwan Strait, we strongly believe that two sides will be unified in the future because they have same cultures, same language and same living habits. The unification is the responsibility of two sides, and they just need time to understand each other by keeping talks and reducing bias. When timing is mature, two sides will be unified soon.

3. Phenomenon:
Chinese legends said that about 6,700 years ago, a man name Fu Xi who observed the operation of celestial sphere(the metaphysics) and saw all motion of creatures on the earth (the physics). Then he created Ba Gua (eight trigrams) to symbolize the phenomenon. Each trigram has a special meaning in it. They would ask the wise man in the tribe to use the art of divining to tell them the results before they went hunting or attending a war. And 3,200 years ago, the King Wen of Zhou Dynasty, being prisoned in You Li (name of place), he had enough time to mediate everything; at that time, the society was more complicated and diverse than the society of Fu Xi. So he used the 8 trigrams time 8 trigrams resulting in 64 hexagrams which can analyze, resolve, and predict the results of things and events of people. But very few people understood the meanings of hexagrams; until 2,500 year ago, Confucius writes 10 books (Ten Wings) to explain the compositions and meanings of hexagrams. It’s said that Confucius had been a middle-class officer in the Lu State, but the governor of Lu State did not appreciate Confucius, so he felt a little bit sad. One day, Confucius went to street to take a view and suddenly he saw a blind fortune teller sitting on the corner of street, and he asked the soothsayer about his future career. The soothsayer used the art of divination to take a hexagram Huo Shan Ru(No.56) hexagram; Huo means fire, Shan means mountain, Ru means traveling. The complete explanation of this hexagram is that the condition of career is like a volcano; up is a fire, down is a mountain and the result is traveling, so it can’t maintain for a long time. Further said, the current job is just so so, and it is impossible to get further promotion. According to the ancient book, Confucius cried immediately after he listened the result of the divination. Confucius doubted that, why the hexagram can make so precise prediction of people’s future, so he began to study I Ching and collected his comments to become 10 books (Ten Wings).

『梅花易數』係邵康節先生（北宋理學大師，生於西元1011年，卒於1077年，本名邵雍，字堯夫，諡康節），偶觀梅花，見雙雀爭枝相啄落地受傷，怪而占之並推演得卦，斷之曰隔日有少女前來摘花而受傷，後果如康節先生所斷，神準無誤，後人稱之為：『梅花易數』或『梅花心易』。

　　古人云：吉凶未來先有兆。所謂『兆』，就是『徵兆』的意思！

當一個人面對疑難問題，懸在心中猶豫不能決時，如果能夠觸動先機，便可因此剎現之靈動而窺見吉凶之奧秘。

例如當愛情、婚姻、事業、投資、學業處於十字路口，不知如何抉擇時，便可使用「梅花易數」占算，以作為抉擇的參考。

　　梅花易數不拘任何形式、不必使用任何占卜工具，只要心有所動就可占卜，而且靈應非常！古代修道人在深山修行，心血來潮時只需屈指一算，便可知天下之事，所應用的就是「梅花易數」，因此「梅花易數」可譽為稀世之奇寶。

From 2009, US has focused on three phases on Asia to maintain the stability, including military power, diplomacy, and economy.
The conflicts will come from the Senkaku Islands dispute or South China Sea Islands dispute.

2013年，台灣外貿順差331億美元，外匯存底達到4168億美元。外匯存底居世界第四名，僅次於大陸，日本和俄羅斯。
單單對大陸順差就高達762億美元。2014年1-5月，台灣對大陸順差即達314億美元。去大陸化須謹慎為先。

"I Ching" has been called the oldest Chinese classical text and the origin of Chinese philosophy as well; while some thought it is the most profound book among Chinese classical books because of its diverse, overarching contents with unfathomable state.  Therefore, someone also called it the "divine book."

        "I Ching" has been called the oldest Chinese classical text and the origin of Chinese philosophy as well; while some thought it is the most profound book among Chinese classical books because of its diverse, overarching contents with unfathomable state.  Therefore, someone also called it the “divine book.”

        Actually, is “I Ching” really so difficult to understand?

As said, the Chinese word “I” in “I Ching” means lizard in hieroglyphs which just like the body and limbs of a lizard.  This kind of reptile will stay at trees silently and not be discovered easily because it will change and adjust its body color according to the change of surrounding environment.  So “I Ching” is also called a book of change literally.

Also, the upper part of the Chinese word of “I” in “I Ching” is the sun.  The light and heat radiated by the sun are the indispensable elements for growing all things in the universe.

Someone said, “I Ching” is a classic text easily to be understood because it directly presents the truth of the universe and phenomenon of the nature to us. 

According to historian textual as mentioned in “Baihutong“ written by Ban Gu in the Han Dynasty, the origin of “I Ching” was the human’s cultural remnants remained before Ice Age.  Through Fuxi, it was innovated and developed continuously.  By means of the simplest symbols of Yin and Yang, the universe and the laws of human evolution were explained.  This kind of law was called natural law.  From the simple to the complex, and then from the complex to the simple, observed the visible phenomenon from the invisible; observed the changing phenomenon from the visible phenomenon. Measured one phenomenon from hundred phenomenon.  Hundreds of phenomenon united in one phenomenon; while one phenomenon returned to no phenomenon. It's static and so subtle which can be realized, but difficult to explain

Regarding the creation of I Ching, Ban Gu had stated “The Way of the Changes is profound, remaining in use throughout the rule of the three sage rulers and three ancient ages.” The three sages meant Fuxi around 6,700 years ago; King Wen of Chou in approx. 3200 years ago and Confucius in 2500 years ago. More than three sages, the ideology of I Ching was the accumulated wisdom of sages generation to generation as well as the root of Chinese culture. The thinking of I Ching was not only about the discourse of idealism and materialism, but also covered the strategies of Moral Law, Heaven, Earth, Commander and Method as mentioned in The Art of War by Sun Tzu combined with the modern knowledge and wisdom to form the philosophy that deprivation leads to changes, changes in turn lead to finding a way out, and in turn becomes sustainable.

易經的由來

《易經》自古以來被稱為群經之首,中國哲學的本源,也有人認為它是中國經

書中最高深的一部學問,因為易經裡面的內容包羅萬象,無所不容，達到高深莫測地步,因此,有人稱之為天書。

事實上，《易經》真的有這麼難懂嗎﹖

有人說,《易經》的易字就是蜥蜴的象形文字,易字頭上的日字,就有如蜥蜴的頭,而下面的勿字,就有如蜥蜴的身體和四肢,而蜥蜴就是我們俗稱的四腳蛇,這種爬蟲類,平時靜静的棲息在樹上,不仔細觀察，是不容易發現牠們的蹤跡. 因為他們善於運用自身的保護色，隨著氣候的變化,選擇停留在不同的樹上. 為了保護自身的安全,必須調整自己身體的顏色,來配合周圍環境的變化.

孔子到了五十歲才開始研習易經，終日手不釋卷，竟然將串訂竹簡的皮帶弄斷了三次，最後終於撰寫出十本易經的參考書，後世稱之為「十翼」。包括彖辭上下傳,象辭上下傳，繫辭上下傳，序卦傳，說卦傳，雜卦傳，文言傳等十部參考書。弔詭的是，孔子在《論語》述而篇上， 不是說過，「子不語怪力亂神」嗎? 在雍也篇也提到「務民之義，敬鬼神而遠之，可謂知矣。」嗎? 孔子為什麼那麼推崇《易經》

 呢?

其實孔子在50歲前並不了解易經，其志向在作官，以推行其理想中之治國之道，但是時運不濟，在魯國一直受到冷落。不得已求教於占卜者，占得易經第56卦的火山旅卦，卦辭上說 「旅，小亨，旅貞吉。」 占卜者斷言，所謂小亨，意謂難邀上寵而得位。孔子聽後，淚流不已，覺悟己道難行，乃有論語所謂 “加我數年，五十以學易，可以無大過矣”，於是認真專注研究易經，將原為卜筮的書，詳加註解，而豐富今日易經的主要內涵。

《易經》的智慧，孔子曾說：易經是「能通天下之志」的一部書，不僅可以釋宇宙的現象，可以探知幽冥鬼神變化之道，可以推測國運之興衰，可以觀天下局勢的變革，也是經國的大法，生命的諫言。唐朝虞世南有言：「不讀易，不可為將相。」

於是有救國之志、濟世之才者，無不孜孜於探索易道。

但是事實上，《易經》並不是那麼深不可測，沒有那麼神秘，它是科學的，它就在我們的身邊，我們每天的生活起居、工作事業、健康幸福，都受這六十四卦所閳述哲理的左右。所謂壓力， 是指你個人內在的能力無法管理，控制外在環境的變化,這就會構成壓力。在看完這本易經入門講義後，將深入淺出的讓你輕易了解到易經的哲理，如何運用在陽宅風水，姓名學，和占卜上，讓你在極短時間內， 就能掌握其精隨。加上實例說明，很快就能上手。

易經內涵的就是五行和陰陽. 它觸及到宇宙萬物間相生相剋,互為消長之理,故不了解五行和陰陽之道,是很難窺命理之中幽玄精奧之機.

五行之說的由來

五行之說，可說是源遠流長，它是中國文化精隨的基礎。那時候的人們相信宇宙萬物皆是由「金」「木」「水」「火」「土」等五種元素所組成的。最早記載於西周末年，

《國語·鄭語》上說「以土與金、木、水、火雜，以成萬物」及《左傳》「天生五材，民並用之，廢一不可」皆有記載。而五行相生之說，最早是由洪範所提出的，在《尚書》洪範篇曾提到:「五行：一曰水，二曰火，三曰木，四曰金，五曰土。水曰潤下，火曰炎上，木曰曲直，金曰從革，土爰稼穡。潤下作鹹，炎上作苦，曲直作酸，從革作辛，稼穡作甘。」五行始立，又稱「洪範五行」。

到了戰國時代，有一齊國人叫鄒衍，他是陰陽家學派的代表人物，「五德終始說」為其學派的主要論述。他把春秋戰國時期流行的五行說應用到歷史觀點上，提出「五德始終」的歷史觀，即整個物質世界是由金、木、水、火、土所構成的，萬事萬物發展變化都是通過五行相剋相生的道理逐漸演化而成的；而人類社會歷史的發展是一種客觀的必然，像大自然演化一樣。

鄒衍認為，從開天闢地開始，社會按照五德轉移的次序進行循環，一個朝代以一德為主，每一德都盛衰有時。德盛，朝代興旺；德衰，朝代滅亡。所以人類社會的歷史是按照五行相生相剋的規律循環向前的。

太極的陰與陽

大約在北宋年間，出現了道教的太極圖。太極圖以一條曲線將圓形分為兩半，形成一半白一半黑，白者像陽，黑者像陰，白中又有一個黑點，黑中又有一個白點，表示陽中有陰，陰中有陽。分開的兩半，酷似兩條魚，所以俗稱陰陽魚。

太極圖

我們就藉著太極圖上的陰與陽，嘗試把抽象的意念具體化，並用文字加以敘述。陰陽是用來描述事物的道理及其相互間的關係，並且是以動態的方式去解釋自然現象的發生、發展和變化規律。所以，陰陽的概念具有下列的特質 :
