The universe initially separated from chaos; heaven and earth (Qian and Kun) were determined, giving birth to humanity and all things. Subsequently, the Taihao clan rose and established the marriage system to unite husband and wife. For thousands of years, humanity has flourished continuously, and even for billions of generations, it will persist without end. 🌌 This is all due to the interaction and resonance of yin and yang, enabling conception and birth. When divining, first observe the Offspring Line to know the gender of the fetus: a yang line represents a male, like discovering a new branch in hand; a yin line represents a female, symbolizing the gate of femininity. (Note on the right: There may be omissions in the original text regarding the discussion of "arc and sash"?)
If the ruling star (Offspring Line) is strong, a healthy and handsome, robust baby should be born; if the fate star (related lines) is weak or in a dormant state, a frail and weak child is certain. If the Virtue Line does not appear, there is no need to delve deeply into the condition of the Fetal Line. The appearance of twin lines or double Virtue Lines indicates the possibility of twins; if one line is restrained or two lines are harmed, it may ultimately be nothing but an empty dream. If the Fetal Line is adjacent to the Official Ghost Line, there will be illness and worry during pregnancy (concern of gathering firewood); if the Wife/Wealth Line transforms into the Offspring Line, there will be joy without the need for medicine during childbirth. 👶
If the Wife/Wealth Line appears alone, it is auspicious to see supporting forces; both the Fetal Line and the Virtue Line (Offspring Line) fear encountering harm or clash. The White Tiger, as the blood deity, when overlapping with the Offspring Line, indicates the rupture of the amniotic sac; the Azure Dragon, as an auspicious energy, when meeting the Fetal Line in motion, signifies that the delivery date is imminent. If the Virtue Line (Offspring) encounters the Azure Dragon but is in emptiness, fetal movement may lead to miscarriage or false joy; if the Official Ghost Line activates with the White Tiger while the Virtue Line is empty, it may indicate premature birth or an empty pregnancy. If the Virtue Line is in motion but the daily stem clashes with the Fetal Line, the child may be born early at the knee; if the Virtue Line is harmed and the Fetal Line still transforms into the Official Ghost Line, the fetus may die in the womb. ⚠️
If the Sibling Line activates, it is unfavorable for the wife; if the Parent Line rises, it is difficult for the son. If the used line is in emptiness and encounters malevolent forces, why worry about the hardships of childbirth (sitting on grass); if the Wife/Wealth Line is adjacent to the Dark Warrior and enters the yin palace, it indeed corresponds to the omen of dreaming of orchids (pregnancy). If it restrains the World Line or the body line, the birth date is approaching; if there is no clash or activation, the delivery date is delayed. If both the Fetal Line and Virtue Line are active, and the Official Ghost Line and Parent Line are jointly present, childbirth will be difficult; if both the Offspring Line and Wife/Wealth Line are exhausted but supported by the daily stem, there is rescue in danger. If the intervening lines combine or generate, it fully relies on the midwife's skill; if the Official Ghost Line is empty or hidden, it certainly indicates a posthumous child. 🤰
In the Wandering Soul hexagram, if the Official Ghost Line is empty, the baby will be born without a father (fatherless at birth); if the activating lines involve the Parent or Sibling Lines being harmed, it inevitably means mother and child returning to the spring (both dying). If the Official Ghost Line transforms into the Virtue Line, there will be many illnesses before birth; if the Wife/Wealth Line transforms into the Official Ghost Line, there will be many disasters after childbirth; if three lines combine into the Sibling Line, the child will lack milk; if six clashes meet the Offspring Line, the father will be safe. If the Response Line encounters emptiness, the external family lacks gifts for encouraging childbirth; if the World Line is valued as the Sibling Line, the family lacks nutrition in self-care. If the yang Virtue Line meets the Azure Dragon, it is no different from a laurel-court outstanding son (excellent son); if the yin Offspring Line is not the month's establishment, how is it different from a peach-grotto fairy maiden (ordinary daughter). 🎁
To divine whether there is pregnancy or not, one must carefully examine whether the Fetal Line is hidden or appearing. If it appears but is empty, pregnancy will dissipate again; if overlapping transforms into exhaustion, pregnancy exists but will not come to fruition. Miscarriage (small birth) must encounter the Official Ghost Line; full-term birth must meet the White Tiger. If carrying the commanding star (strong and supported), both existence and non-existence are safe; if there is a yin place (protection) without harm, slowness or urgency is not beneficial.
If encountering the Dark Warrior, conception occurs secretly (hidden pregnancy); if encountering the Document Line (Parent Line), there were no children before. The pregnancy form is within, only because earth combines with the Gouchen; the fetus hides within, precisely because it approaches the dragon and combines with virtue. If asking about the midwife, do not deduce using the two intervening lines; if divining about the wet nurse, one must judge based on a single Wealth Line. If the Sibling Line activates, the skill is poor (low technique), and the wet nurse must guard against theft; if the Parent Line rises, milk is scarce, and the old mother secretly fears harming the fetus. If the Offspring Line activates, the wet nurse's methods are more capable; if sibling and ghost lines overlap repeatedly, the disaster is severe, and worldly opportunities still fluctuate. If wealth combines with the Virtue Line, she is good at care and protection; if the body generates the offspring position, she understands how to maintain. If encountering mutual restraint or clash, it certainly indicates many disasters and misfortunes. 🔥🌊
The core of this passage is the application of the Six Lines divination principles from the Book of Changes, analyzing elements such as the Offspring Line, Fetal Line, and Official Ghost Line in the hexagram to predict pregnancy, childbirth processes, and fetal health. It emphasizes that the interaction of yin and yang is the foundation of reproduction and focuses on the strength, weakness, and generative-restraining relationships of the lines to deduce auspicious or inauspicious outcomes. Essentially, it is an ancient symbolic interpretation of life conception, combining natural philosophy and divination practice.
In a modern context, this can be seen as a traditional risk assessment and psychological comfort tool. For example:
