昔天候龙马出于洪河,以负阴阳之数,亦于伏牺氏,其位有九,其数始于一而终于九焉。圣
人密符天意,务范而以意九宫,除次中位,而以画成八卦矣。去相率之三位数,皆有五焉。然北
方坎一,合南方离九,成十,兼中五,为十五也。东方震三,兼西方兑七,成十也,兼中五,为
一十五也。北方隅干六,合东南方隅巽四,成十,兼中五,为十五也。东北方艮八,合西南方坤二,
成十也,兼中五,共成一十五也。又,干六合艮八,成一十四,兼坎一,为一十五也。艮八合巽
四,成十二,兼震三,为十五也。巽四合坤二,成六,兼离九,为十五也。又,坤二干六成八,
兼兑七,为十五也。所以五位而合一十五数者,以三位而应三十五也。以数应五行,生数也。以
其一二三四五而积之,其数十有五矣,乃乾坤为用之数也。然干为天者,阳也,其数奇,故一三
五而为九,乃干之用也,坤为地而阴也,其数隅,故二四为六,乃坤之用也。坤六画,是故用,
干三画,而用焉,故九六合有十五也。又,历候,五日成候也。震三兑七中五,成十五也,所以
三位而合一十五数者,以三位而应以数,应五行之生数也。其一二三四五者,积之其数一十五矣,
乃乾坤为用之数者。然干为天者,阳也,阳数奇,故一三五而成九,乃干之用也,坤为地而成阴
也,阴数偶,故二四为六,乃坤之用也。坤六画而用六,干三画而用九者,所为干道包坤,是以
兼而为九,乃其数用焉,故九六合有十五也。又,历候取五日,五运周而为一候,三候为一气,
而应三才之象也。月之亏盈而应之,则知阴阳为用之数,以九六为之纪也。阴气生于天,阳气生
于地,故曰天以六六为节,地以九九制会。然干道包而其数九,故有九宫,上应天之九星,下应
地之九野,九星应人之九窍,九野应人之九脏尔。故经云∶自古通天者,生之本,本于
阴阳,其九洲、九窍,皆通乎天气。故其生之,其气三,三而成天,三而成地,三而成人。三而
三之,合则九也。九分而九野,九野为九脏,故形脏四,神脏五,合而成九脏,以应之也。然非
天理,安得如是乎。

加上气策(推算节气的方法),得到二日七十五分□□余二,命名为己酉。推算到辛亥日,八月十七日辛亥日交接,进入五之气。
加上气策,得到三日六十二分四十秒,命名为己酉。得到壬子日的时辰,十月九日壬子日交接,进入终之气(第六气)。
从前天候龙马从黄河中浮现,背负着阴阳的数理,也是在伏羲氏时代,其位置有九个,数字从一开始到九结束。圣人暗中契合天意,致力于用意念构建九宫,除去中间的位置,从而画出八卦。去掉相率(相互关联)的三个位数,每个都有五。然而北方坎一,合南方离九,成十,加上中五,为十五。东方震三,加上西方兑七,成十,加上中五,为一十五。北方隅干六,合东南方隅巽四,成十,加上中五,为十五。东北方艮八,合西南方坤二,成十,加上中五,共成一十五。另外,干六合艮八,成一十四,加上坎一,为一十五。艮八合巽四,成十二,加上震三,为十五。巽四合坤二,成六,加上离九,为十五。另外,坤二干六成八,加上兑七,为十五。所以五位合一十五数,是因为三位对应三十五。以数对应五行,是生数。将其一二三四五累加起来,总数为十五,这是乾坤作为用的数。然而干为天,属阳,其数为奇数,所以一三五相加为九,这是干的作用;坤为地,属阴,其数为偶数,所以二四为六,这是坤的作用。坤六画,因此用六,干三画,而用九,所以九六合有十五。另外,历候,五日成一候。震三兑七中五,成十五,所以三位合一十五数,是因为三位对应数,对应五行的生数。其一二三四五,累加起来总数为十五,这是乾坤作为用的数。然而干为天,属阳,阳数为奇数,所以一三五成九,这是干的作用;坤为地而成阴,阴数为偶数,所以二四为六,这是坤的作用。坤六画而用六,干三画而用九,之所以干道包容坤,因此兼而为九,这是其数的运用,所以九六合有十五。另外,历候取五日,五运周而复始为一候,三候为一气,对应三才之象。月亮的盈亏与之相应,则知阴阳为用的数,以九六作为纪纲。阴气生于天,阳气生于地,所以说天以六六为节,地以九九制会。然而干道包容而其数为九,所以有九宫,上应天之九星,下应地的九野,九星应人的九窍,九野应人的九脏。所以经云:自古通天者,生命的根本,根本在于阴阳,其九州、九窍,都通乎天气。所以其生命之气分为三,三而成天,三而成地,三而成人。三乘以三,合则为九。九分而九野,九野为九脏,所以形脏四,神脏五,合而成九脏,以对应它。然而如果不是天理,怎么能像这样呢?
By adding the Qi Ce (method for calculating solar terms), we obtain two days and seventy-five fen with a remainder of two, designated as Jiyou. Calculating to the Xinhai day, on the seventeenth day of the eighth month, the Xinhai day marks the transition into the Fifth Qi (Fifth climatic phase).
By adding the Qi Ce, we obtain three days, sixty-two fen, and forty seconds, designated as Jiyou. We arrive at the Chen hour of the Renzi day; on the ninth day of the tenth month, the Renzi day marks the transition into the Final Qi (Sixth climatic phase).
In ancient times, the Heavenly Dragon-Horse emerged from the Hong River (Yellow River), bearing the numbers of Yin and Yang. This occurred during the era of Fuxi, where there were nine positions, and the numbers began with one and ended with nine. The Sages secretly aligned with the will of Heaven, striving to model the Nine Palaces through intent. By excluding the central position, they drew the Eight Trigrams. Excluding the three positions that are mutually related, each contains five. However, Kan in the North is one, combining with Li in the South which is nine, forming ten; adding the central five results in fifteen. Zhen in the East is three, combining with Dui in the West which is seven, forming ten; adding the central five results in fifteen. Qian at the northern corner is six, combining with Xun at the southeastern corner which is four, forming ten; adding the central five results in fifteen. Gen in the northeast is eight, combining with Kun in the southwest which is two, forming ten; adding the central five results in fifteen. Furthermore, Qian six combines with Gen eight to form fourteen; adding Kan one results in fifteen. Gen eight combines with Xun four to form twelve; adding Zhen three results in fifteen. Xun four combines with Kun two to form six; adding Li nine results in fifteen. Additionally, Kun two and Qian six form eight; adding Dui seven results in fifteen. Thus, the five positions unite to form the number fifteen because the three positions correspond to thirty-five. Corresponding to the Five Elements via numbers, these are the Generating Numbers. Accumulating one, two, three, four, and five yields a total of fifteen; this is the number used by Qian and Kun. Qian represents Heaven and is Yang; its numbers are odd, so one, three, and five sum to nine, representing the function of Qian. Kun represents Earth and is Yin; its numbers are even, so two and four sum to six, representing the function of Kun. Kun has six lines and thus uses six; Qian has three lines and thus uses nine; therefore, nine and six together constitute fifteen. Regarding climatic observations, five days constitute one Hou (observation period). Zhen three, Dui seven, and the central five sum to fifteen. Thus, the three positions unite to form fifteen because the three positions correspond to numbers, specifically the Generating Numbers of the Five Elements. Accumulating one, two, three, four, and five yields fifteen, which is the number used by Qian and Kun. Qian is Heaven and Yang; Yang numbers are odd, so one, three, and five form nine, the function of Qian. Kun is Earth and Yin; Yin numbers are even, so two and four form six, the function of Kun. Kun uses six due to its six lines, and Qian uses nine due to its three lines. Because the Way of Qian encompasses Kun, they combine to form nine, utilizing these numbers, thus nine and six constitute fifteen. Furthermore, climatic observations take five days; the Five Movements cycle to form one Hou, and three Hous form one Qi, corresponding to the image of the Three Powers (Heaven, Earth, Humanity). The waxing and waning of the moon corresponds to this, revealing that the numbers used by Yin and Yang are governed by nine and six. Yin Qi arises from Heaven, and Yang Qi arises from Earth; hence it is said that Heaven sets its rhythm with 6x6, and Earth regulates its gatherings with 9x9. Since the Way of Qian encompasses and its number is nine, there are Nine Palaces. These correspond above to the Nine Stars of Heaven, below to the Nine Fields of Earth, within humans to the Nine Orifices, and the Nine Fields correspond to the Nine Viscera. Thus, the Classic states: "Since antiquity, those who connect with Heaven understand that life's root lies in Yin and Yang; its Nine Provinces and Nine Orifices all communicate with Heavenly Qi." Therefore, its vital energy is tripartite: three constitute Heaven, three constitute Earth, and three constitute Humanity. Three multiplied by three equals nine. Divided into nine, they become the Nine Fields; the Nine Fields correspond to the Nine Viscera. Thus, the Four Form Viscera and the Five Spirit Viscera combine to form the Nine Viscera, corresponding to them. If not according to Heavenly Principle, how could it be so?
