Book of Changes (“I Ching”) with octanalytic commentary

1. Introduction

The I Ching or Zhou Yi is the earliest Chinese philosophical text. The earliest layer, traditionally dated to c. 700 BC and intended for divination, consists of 64 hexagrams. “The Book of Changes” is the name attached to the “I Ching” in the West.

The book consists of 64 characters – hexagrams, each of which expresses a particular life situation in time from the point of view of its gradual development. Symbols are made up of six lines; the lines indicate successive stages in the development of a given situation. Lines are of two kinds: either solid (they are also called nines), or interrupted in the middle (sixes). The former symbolizes the active state, light, tension (yang), and the latter symbolizes the passive state, darkness, compliance (yin). It is generally accepted that the lines are read from the bottom up; their sequence describes the development of the situation.

Each hexagram can also be represented as a combination of two trigrams. Each hexagram, as well as each line in the hexagram, is accompanied by a set of aphorisms, which should give advice to the fortuneteller.

The modern method of analysis of the psyche “Octanalysis” [1—15] makes it possible, on the basis of scientific data on the human psyche, to write an octanalytic commentary for the Book of Changes.

Octanalysis distinguishes eight instances in a living system (mental states, components of the psyche, vectors, layers of the psyche, vibrational levels, resonant levels, fundamental principles of being) 0-Source, 7-Imagination, 6-Subconscious, 5-Soul, 4-Heart, 3-Irratio, 2-Ratio, 1-Mind. Using the methods of octanalysis, their harmonious, natural, impeccable hierarchy, top to bottom, 0, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1 (in binary 000, 111, 110, 101, 100, 011, 010, 001) was discovered. At any given time, one of these eight instances dominates the living system.

2. The designation of 8 trigrams of Fu Xi

The legendary first emperor of China (Celestial Empire) Fu Xi (2852—2737 BC) created the first eight trigrams (Kun, Qian, Dui, Li, Zhen, Xun, Kan, Gen), fundamental principles of life.

The trigram consists of three horizontal lines, located one above the other. Each of the lines can be a whole horizontal line” – » (strong line, “nine”, “son”) or a horizontal line interrupted in the middle "– -" (weak line, “six”, “daughter”).

Let’s introduce the digital designation of trigrams, which is convenient for converting numbers from binary to decimal. Let us designate in the trigram the whole horizontal line” – » (“nine”) as “1” (“phallus”), and the horizontal line interrupted in the middle “– -” (“six”) as “0” (“vagina”). In the numerical designation of the trigram, for example “011”, the digit on the left “011” indicates the lower line of the trigram, and the digit on the right “011” indicates the upper line. Then the designation of eight trigrams will look like:

000 (Kun, mother);

111 (Qian, father);

110 (Dui, third daughter);

101 (Li, second daughter);

100 (Zhen, first son);

011 (Xun, first daughter);

010 (Kan, second son);

001 (Gen, third son).

Names of trigrams are given in parentheses.

The eight instances of the psyche, studied in octanalysis, uniquely correspond to the eight trigrams of Fu Xi:

0-Source / Kun, mother;

7-Imagination/Qian, father;

6-Subconscious/Dui, third daughter;

5-Soul/Li, second daughter;

4-Heart/Zhen, first son;

3-Irratio/Xun, first daughter;

2-Ratio/Kan, second son;

1-Mind/Gen, third son.

3. The dominance cycles of Fu Xi Trigrams

In the harmonious, impeccable, natural, top to bottom, 07654321-hierarchy of the eight instances of the psyche, the instance (trigram) 0-Source / Kun (mother) is in the first place, and the instance (trigram) 7-Imagination / Qian (father) is in the second place, which reflects the deep meaning of arrangement of Universe. Introversion, turning attention inward, is characteristic of mother. Extraversion, turning attention outward, is characteristic of father.

In the human race, the biological mechanism of immortality (childbirth) is carried out by the mother’s womb. The Universe’s mechanism of human immortality is carried out by the instance of the psyche 0-Source (Unified Consciousness) – the trigram Kun (mother). Instance 0-Source/Kun (mother) is a cornucopia from which emanations come and what we call the Universe is created.

In the process of human activity, the instances of his psyche (Fu Xi trigrams) dominate in turn. For example, a full cycle of instances dominance with observance of an harmonious, impeccable hierarchy of instances is the 076543210-cycle. Instance 1-Mind/Gen shows a sense of superiority and is able to deviate from the principle of impeccability and establish any other hierarchy of instances in the psyche.

Octanalysis notes that the personality of a person has a five-component structure, which includes

• three instances of consciousness 5-Soul/Li, 4-Heart/Zhen, 1-Mind/Gen;

• two instances of the unconscious 3-Irratio/Xun, 2-Ratio/Kan.

A complete cycle of dominance of personality instances with observance of an impeccable hierarchy of instances is the 543215-cycle.

A person with psychological problems, acting within Karpman’s dramatic triangle (instances 3-Irratio/Xun, 2-Ratio/Kan, 1-Mind/Gen), performs the 1321-cycle. The terrorist criminal operates in the 131-cycle.

4. Congenital dominance of Fu Xi Trigrams

The octanalysis method revealed the effect of congenital dominance of personality instances (Fu Xi trigrams) [4], which depends on the date of birth of a person and manifests itself to the same extent throughout a person’s life.

An analysis of people’s behavior shows that the congenital dominants of the personality (congenital dominant trigrams) most often dominate in the human psyche in the process of his activity.

Octanalysis notes that a person’s personality has a five-component structure. Depending on the date of birth, two to five instances of the personality may show congenital dominance. A person perceives the congenital dominants of his personality as virtues perceives as a talent and applies them to achieve success in his activities.

People in whom only two instances of the five instances of personality show congenital dominance, have a narrow range of professions choice, and they may also have specific problems of adaptation, both social and labor. Such people need psychological support.

Octanalysis has developed an octanalytic personality formula [4], which shows which instances of the personality show congenital dominance, and also characterizes the degree of their congenital dominant activity.

The Appendix describes in detail the procedure for compiling an octanalytic personality formula by date of birth.

For example, the octanalytic personality formula for a person born on 07/2/1954,

3 lunar day / 31-Leo / 4% + / / 42-Cancer / 4-31-Horse

shows that he was born on the 3rd lunar day, the lunar zodiac sign is Leo, the percentage of illumination of the Moon in the phase “Growing Moon” is 4%, the solar zodiac sign is Cancer, the year of the Horse according to the eastern calendar.

The digits 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 in the personality formula indicate congenital dominants, respectively, instances 1-Mind/Gen, 2-Ratio/Kan, 3-Irratio/Xun, 4-Heart/Zhen, 5-Soul/Li.

The location of the digit in the personality formula (“first dominant”, “second dominant”, “background dominant”) and the repetition of this digit (for example, “four”, instance 4-Heart/Zhen, twice as the first dominant, as the second dominant and as background dominant) show the degree of congenital dominant activity of the instance.

Note that the congenital dominants of the lunar zodiac sign have a greater influence on human behavior than the congenital dominants of the solar zodiac sign.

The personality formula written above indicates the following congenital dominants of the personality and characterizes the degree of their activity:

• instance 4-Heart/Zhen (“four” as the first dominant and as background dominant);

• instance 3-Irratio/Xun (“three” twice as the first dominant);

• instance 2-Ratio/Kan (“two” as the second dominant);

• instance 1-Mind/Gen (“one” twice as the second dominant).

The octanalytic personality formula is used to analyze interpersonal communication. When studying and evaluating the psychological state of two persons who interact with each other, the octanalytic personality formulas of these persons are compared.

5. Society and power

Octanalysis notes that in his activity a person uses a three-component consciousness: instances 5-Soul, 4-Heart, 1-Mind.

Harmonious hierarchy of consciousness instances is 541-hierarchy: instance 5-Soul – in the first place, instance 4-Heart – in second place, instance 1-Mind – in third place.

Instance 1-Mind has a unique property – it is able to show a sense of superiority and establish in consciousness any other hierarchy of consciousness instances: 514-, 415-, 451-, 154-, 145-hierarchy.

 

Age-related pentapsychology [1], the section of octanalysis, notes that age-related activation of consciousness instances is carried out in the sequence 1-Mind → 4-Heart → 5-Soul.

At the age of 1.5—2 years to 6 years, only the extroverted instance 1-Mind dominates in consciousness of a child. At the age of 6 to 18 years, in consciousness of a child, a teenager, in turn the introverted instance 4-Heart and the extroverted instance 1-Mind dominate. Over the age of 18 years, in consciousness of an adult in turn the extroverted instance 5-Soul, the introverted instance 4-Heart and the extroverted instance 1-Mind dominate.

In the development process of society, the same regularity is observed. The age-related activation of public consciousness instances is carried out in the sequence 1-Mind → 4-Heart →5-Soul.

How do the instances of public consciousness 1-Mind, 4-Heart, 5-Soul manifest themselves?

When the extrovert instance 1-Mind dominates in public consciousness, people build relationships, first of all, according to the scheme “I am higher, you are lower”, on the basis of selfishness, a sense of superiority, lies, lack of principle. This means that the distribution of public good among people on the basis of selfishness, lies, criminal actions is a fair approach from the point of view of the extroverted instance of public consciousness 1-Mind (the “capitalism” approach).

When the introverted instance 4-Heart dominates in public consciousness, people build relationships, first of all, according to the scheme “I and you are on the same level”, they build friendly, cordial relationships. This means that the even distribution of public good among people is a fair approach from the point of view of the introverted instance of public consciousness 4-Heart (the “socialism” approach).

When the extroverted instance 5-Soul dominates in public consciousness, people build relationships according to the scheme “You are higher, I am lower”, they show altruism, devotional service and sacrifice. This means that charity and devotional service to people is a fair approach from the point of view of the extraverted instance of public consciousness 5-Soul (the “communism” approach).

Octanalysis clearly shows where the ideas of building capitalism, socialism and communism came from. These ideas reflect the fundamental properties of three components of human consciousness – the extroverted instance 1-Mind, the introverted instance 4-Heart and the extroverted instance 5-Soul.

In addition to these three approaches (capitalism, socialism, communism) of influencing public consciousness, there is also an approach of hypnotic influence on public consciousness (the “hypnotism” approach). When using the “hypnotism” approach, the state of consciousness of a person changes. In this state, a person acts unconsciously.

The human psyche is arranged in such a way that in the eight-component structure of the psyche the introverted instance 6-Subconscious in the hierarchy is higher than the instances of consciousness 5-Soul, 4-Heart, 1-Mind. This makes it possible, with the help of suggestion, with the help of hypnosis, to control a person’s behavior from the outside. When the introverted instance 6-Subconscious dominates in the psyche, the state of consciousness changes, the three-component consciousness is turned off and the person acts unconsciously according to the programs of the subconscious.

If a hypnotist or a system of hypnotic influence, with the help of an extroverted instance 1-Mind introduces his program into public subconscious, then people unconsciously act according to this program (the “hypnotism” approach).

Thus, in the development process of society, the public consciousness can be influenced by four approaches:

– capitalism (with dominance of the extraverted instance of public consciousness 1-Mind);

– socialism (with dominance of the introverted instance of public consciousness 4-Heart);

– communism (with dominance of the extraverted instance of public consciousness 5-Soul);

– hypnotism (with dominance of the introverted instance of public subconscious 6-Subconscious).

At the society development stage “capitalism” in public consciousness primarily the extroverted instance 1-Mind dominates. In the power structures of the state, first of all, people come, in whom the extroverted instance 1-Mind shows a pronounced congenital dominance.

At the society development stage “socialism” in public consciousness primarily the introverted instance 4-Heart dominates. In the power structures of the state, first of all, people come, in whom the introverted instance 4-Heart and the extroverted instance 1-Mind show congenital dominance.

At the society development stage “communism” in public consciousness primarily the extraverted instance 5-Soul dominates. In the power structures of the state, first of all, people come who show congenital dominance of extraverted instances of consciousness 5-Soul and 1-Mind, as well as those people who show congenital dominance of all five instances of personality (three instances of consciousness 5-Soul, 4-Heart, 1-Mind and two instances of the unconscious 3-Irratio, 2-Ratio).

It is very easy to identify people in whom the extroverted instance 5-Soul shows congenital dominance. Octanalysis states that such people are born in a year that ends in digit 2 or 3, such as 2002, 2003, 2012, 2013, 2022, 2023. The beginning of the year must be determined according to the eastern calendar: second new moon after winter solstice (after December 22). In Gregorian calendar, this usually corresponds to one of the days between January 20 and February 20.

At the development stage of society “hypnotism” public consciousness is subject to the dominant influence of the introverted instance 6-Subconscious. Since the introverted instance 6-Subconscious does not have freedom of choice, then when the introverted instance 6-Subconscious dominates in the psyche, a person acts unconsciously according to programs that are laid down from the outside in the subconscious of a person in order to manipulate his behavior.

Caritology [3], the section of octanalysis, notes that the universe’ phenomenon “Love” manifests itself in human behavior through eight types of love (universe’, imaginary, suggestible, sacrificial, friendly, sexual, parental, egoistic love), which uniquely correspond to eight instances of human psyche (0-Source, 7-Imagination, 6-Subconscious, 5-Soul, 4-Heart, 3-Irratio, 2-Ratio, 1-Mind).

By the type of love shown in a person’s behavior at given moment of time, it is easy to determine which instance of the psyche is dominating at that moment. For example, the manifestation of selfish (friendly, sacrificial, suggestible) love clearly indicates at this moment dominance of the instance 1-Mind (4-Heart, 5-Soul, 6-Subconscious).
