Hou Tian Ba Gua

Shuogua Zhuan: "God comes forth in Zhen. All things are well-arranged in Xun. Meet each others in Li. Receive aid in Kun. Rejoice in Dui. Begin to be prominent in Qian. Toil in Kan. The achievement we say means Gen. All things come out in Zhen, Zhen corresponds to East. It is orderly in Xun, Xun corresponds to Southeast, orderliness denotes all things are clean at the same time. The Li denotes brightness, all things meet one another, it is the trigram of south. The sages face to the south to administer affairs of the world, and govern towards the brightness, because the idea was taken from this. The Kun denotes earth, all things receive nourishment from it, therefore it is said 'Receive aid in Kun.' Dui corresponds to exact autumn, all things are rejoiced, therefore it is said 'Rejoice in Dui'. Begin to be prominent in Qian, Qian is the trigram of northwest, it denotes Yin and Yang approach each other. Kan denotes water, it is the trigram of exact north and denotes toil, all things return, therefore it is said 'Toil in Kan'. Gen is the trigram of northeast, all things achieve the completion then achieve the commencement, therefore it is said 'Bring achievement in Gen'."

He Tu

The order of Xian Tian Ba Gua Xici Zhuan says, "In Change there is the Taiji/Axis/Supreme Polarity. This gives rise to the Two Modes; the Two Modes give rise to the Four Images; the Four Images give rise to the Eight Trigrams." Note: Taiji is usually translated as "Supreme Ultimate" and sometimes as Supreme Pole, Supreme Polarity, Grand Terminus. Shuo Zi (Yong): "Qian 1; Dui 2; Li 3; Zhen 4; Xun 5; Kan 6; Gen 7; Kun 8. Qian, Dui, Li and Zheng are Yang. Xun, Kan, Gen and Kun are Yin. Qian and Dui are Tai Yang. Li and Zhen are Xiao Yin. Xun and Kan are Xiao Yang. Gen and Kun are Tai Yin."

Xian Tian Ba Gua

Shuogua Zhuan: "Heaven and Earth settle on their positions, mountain and an area of water (marsh) interchange their vitality; thunder and wind approach each other; and water and fire do not repel each other. Eight trigrams mutually interlock with each other. Enumerating the past is compliance. Knowing the future is anticipation. Therefore Yi is anticipatory enumeration." Shao Zi (Yong): "Qian South, Kun north, Li East, Kan West, Dui resides South-east, Zhen resides North-east, Xun resides South-west, Gen resides North-west."
