In the Plum Blossom Numerology, the attributes and symbolic classifications of the Eight Trigrams associate the eight basic trigrams (Qian, Kan, Gen, Zhen, Xun, Li, Kun, Dui) with symbols from nature, colors, objects, animals, and more, helping people understand the attributes and changes of all things in the world through these trigrams. Below is the modern vernacular translation:
Qian Trigram ☀️: Represents heaven and strong, vigorous things. Symbolic colors include deep yellow and bright red; objects such as gold, jade, jewels, mirrors, round objects, wooden fruits, valuable items, and hats; animals like lions, elephants, horses, and swans; as well as all things hard and authoritative.
Kan Trigram 🌊: Represents water and risky, treacherous things. Symbolizes objects in water or with pits, such as pigs, fish, bows, wheels, water tools, salt, and wine; the primary color is black; also includes other water-related items.
Gen Trigram ⛰: Represents mountains and still, stagnant things. Symbolizes earth, stones, and the color yellow; animals like tigers, dogs, rats, and birds; objects such as melons, fruits, fowl, and animals with black beaks; as well as natural objects in mountains or soil.
Zhen Trigram ⚡: Represents thunder and vibrating, dynamic things. Symbolizes bamboo, wood, and bluish-green colors; animals like dragons and snakes; plants such as reeds and grasses; objects like bamboo and wooden instruments, fresh vegetation; and all things dynamic and growing.
Xun Trigram 🌬: Represents wind and顺从, adaptable things. Symbolizes long wooden objects and bluish-green colors; animals like snakes, birds, and chickens; objects such as incense, bamboo and wooden tools, and delicate instruments; as well as柔顺, flowing things.
Li Trigram 🔥: Represents fire and bright, illuminating things. Symbolizes fire, documents, and weapons; animals like pheasants, turtles, crabs, snails, clams, and turtles; objects such as dry wood and armor; the primary color is red.
Kun Trigram 🌍: Represents earth and柔顺, nurturing things. Symbolizes soil, all things, and grains; animals like cows and fowl; objects such as silk, cotton, cloth, carriages, metal, and earthenware; the primary color is yellow; as well as all things包容 and nourishing.
Dui Trigram 💧: Represents marsh and joyful, communicative things. Symbolizes metal knives, musical instruments, and objects in marshes; the primary color is white; objects with openings or gaps; animals like sheep; as well as communication and joyous things.
The Eight Trigrams form the foundational framework of the I Ching, associating natural elements (heaven, earth, water, fire, etc.) with specific symbols to create a symbolic system for describing the attributes, relationships, and patterns of change in the universe. This reflects the ancient philosophy of "harmony between heaven and humanity," emphasizing the interconnectedness and dynamic balance of all things.
In a modern context, the symbolic classifications of the Eight Trigrams can be understood as a metaphorical system that helps people analyze issues from multiple perspectives:
These symbols are no longer superstitious but serve as reference tools for psychological and behavioral patterns, encouraging people to draw wisdom from nature.
The classification of the Eight Trigrams reveals the holistic view of ancient philosophy: all things are interconnected, and change is eternal. In modern times, this reminds us to view the world with systems thinking, avoiding isolated analysis of problems. It also emphasizes balance—for instance, the complementarity of Qian (strength) and Kun (柔顺)—encouraging people to seek dynamic harmony in life. This philosophy is not about fixed answers but inspires us to adapt to change and respect nature.
