Universal Vortical Singularity contemplation on Bagua
This Bagua diagram with Ying and Yang in a eight trigrams diagram is truly amazing. Bagua is conceptually a template or a ruler within the Taoist cosmology to track changes based on I Ching, as the cosmology centres on the ideas of the dynamic balance of opposites, the evolution of events as a process, and acceptance of the inevitability of change. In Chinese philosophy, yin and yang are generalized descriptions of the antitheses or mutual correlations in human perceptions of phenomena in the natural world, combining to create a unity of opposites in the theory of the Taiji. Excerpts from Wikipedia. This is a universal universe model of perpetual changing in cyclical manner developed by ancient Chinese thousands of years ago, its a wonder how did they derive to this during those time. With the Bagua model they seems to be more knowledgeable in some areas than what modern scientists are still learning and ignorance of. However, over time this universe model was marred by myths and has had strayed in developments of all sorts. |

The five elements of Ying and Yang in Bagua for Chinese astrology refers to the five naked-eye planets, these planets are Mercury, Mars, Venus, Jupiter and Saturn, represented by the five elements of water, metal, fire, wood and earth respectively. The Chinese Zodiac is a twelve year cycle, Chinese calendar are linked to the orbit of Jupiter, there being twelve sacred beasts in the Chinese astrological cycle, and twelve years in the orbit of Jupiter; each year of the twelve year cycle in Chinese astrology is represented by a character of the twelve Chinese Zodiac animal symbols. Every sixty year cycle on day one of Chinese lunisolar calender, Sun, Earth and a new moon are aligned, Jupiter and Saturn would have returned to the approximate positions with a similar celestial formation in their constellations on a sixty year precession cycle for these solar system objects; every year of these sixty year cycle is denoted by a combination of Heavenly Stem and Earthly Branch.
The unity in duality of Ying and Yang circle through Universal Vortical Singularity
contemplation, is conceivable in many ways:
| It can be interpreted to be representing the opposite complimentary pair of polar vortices on a spheroid with rotation axis tilted at an angle; stretched vortex in perpetual motion view at a titled angle would render this perceivable visual. The Ying is the polar vortex at one pole and the Yang is the polar vortex at the other pole, both spinning cyclonically on a spheroid, and viewing the dynamic spheroid from top on revolving axis that is tilted from rotating axis from South Pole, it would be the exact shape of a Ying and Yang diagram, with the polar vortex behind the spheroid conceptually view as Ying in a shade of shadow. Perhaps the clockwise rotation of the Ying and Yang diagram is derived as a result of observation on movement of celestial objects in ancient China on mid latitude at Northern hemisphere with the idea that Earth was in stillness. The ancient Chinese would not have known that Earth is a suspended spheroid revolving around Sun, yet the model of Bagua ressembles the model of Universal Vortical Singularity in these manners. | ![]() |
The trigrams diagram can represents the phases of a spheroid in a precession on two axes, with 8 phases on each axis gets 64 scenarios (8 x 8 ) as in eight trigrams of sixty-four palms. Having recorded the phenomena in every phase on a daily basis over a long period of time in a statistical compilation, it could render accurate climate predictions based on past events that recurs in a cyclical manner, by tracking the cosmos in night sky in relation to eight trigrams of sixty-four palms for I-Ching analysis.
In the Battle of Red Cliffs, Zhuge Liang could have used this knowledge and thus defeated an overwhelming invading enemy without having a direct confrontation, despite was greatly outnumbered by army of warlord Cao Cao with eight hundred thousand strong soldiers. After having observed the sky for many nights to track the positions of grouped stars as in Chinese constellations for making prediction based on I-Ching analysis, Zhuge Laing anticipated a crucial wind direction change on a certain day. On that day, in a blaze fanned by changed wind direction the enemy was almost entirely wiped out.
The animation below for tide is illustrated in eight moon phases, and with the seasonal variation also segregated into eight phases, as in spring, mid spring, summer, mid summer, autumn, mid autumn, winter and mid winter, the 64 senarios of Sun and moon position with respect to Earth in a lunisolar prcession could be analyzed by eight trigrams of sixty-four palms as in Bagua. A refined type of ocean tides senarios based on sixty-four palms in a cyclical manner on a localized phenomenon can be predicted. This principle of Bagua similar to precession is probably also applicable for making I-Ching predictions to wind directions and their behaviors. The day one for Chinese lunisolar calendar of the month is always on the phase of a new moon, and mid months is always on the phase of a full moon. The M81 galaxy also displayed a unity in duality of Ying and Yang circle as a dual-core vortex, with the main leading vortex as Yang and a regressing secondary vortex as Yin, perfectly balanced as a complimenting pair. The dual-core though are very near to each other, are merged towards the bottom and separating towards the surface. This similar characteristic can be observed in the image for oceanic whirlpool but to a lesser apparent degree with the harmonics formed on varying phases of this dual-core vortex. |

Ironically,
the modern day weather forecast has often been not accurate even for predictions
within a day, but the ancient Chinese were able to make climate predictions
fairly accurately in months ahead in a more general manner.
The wisdom of ancient Chinese that had conceived this universal Bagua model is marvelous.
