1. Five Combinations of Heavenly Stems: Algorithmic Logic of Energy
In ancient observations, the Ten Heavenly Stems combine in pairs to form the "Five Movements" governing a year. This rule originates from the Taishi Tianyuan Volume and is the Base Algorithm for calculating annual luck.
| Transformed Qi (5 Qi) | Corresponding Stems | Passed Asterisms (DB Block) | Five Elements Attribute |
|---|---|---|---|
| Golden Qi | Jia, Ji | Xin, Wei, Jiao, Zhen | Earth |
| White Qi | Yi, Geng | Kang, Di, Mao, Bi | Metal |
| Black Qi | Bing, Xin | Zhang, Yi, Lou, Wei | Water |
| Azure Qi | Ding, Ren | Wei, Shi, Liu, Xing | Wood |
| Red Qi | Wu, Gui | Niu, Nü, Kui, Bi | Fire |
- Gateways of Heaven & Earth: Kui, Bi (Heaven's Gate - Chen) and Jiao, Zhen (Earth's Door - Xu) are the crucial I/O nodes for energy entry and exit.
- Combination Rules: Combinations act like key pairings in asymmetric encryption, strictly correlating.
2. Governing Heaven and Earth: Rotation Direction & Convection Engine
Climate changes are not random but follow a fixed trajectory: "What is above moves right, what is below moves left."
These two forces intertwine, forming a "two-way convection engine" driving Earth's ecology. Facing north looking at the sky, energy moves right to left; facing south looking at the ground, energy moves left to right.
| Year Branch | Sitian (1st Half) | Zaiquan (2nd Half) | Expected Climate |
|---|---|---|---|
| Zi, Wu | Shao Yin Fire | Yang Ming Metal | Hot, Cool |
| Chou, Wei | Tai Yin Earth | Tai Yang Water | Damp, Cold |
| Yin, Shen | Shao Yang Fire | Jue Yin Wood | Summer Heat, Windy |
| Mao, You | Yang Ming Metal | Shao Yin Fire | Dry, Hot |
| Chen, Xu | Tai Yang Water | Tai Yin Earth | Cold, Damp |
| Si, Hai | Jue Yin Wood | Shao Yang Fire | Windy, Summer Heat |
This is called "Improper Position (不当位)". If the system protocol expects "Jue Yin Wood" (mild and windy) but detects abnormal "Yang Ming Metal" (extreme drought).
It's like a server forcing a data payload with incorrect attributes. The human immune API fails to parse this climate parameter, causing an Exception, manifesting as widespread epidemics or crop failures.

3. Five Elements Architecture: I/O Mapping of Human API & Natural Variables
The core concept of Wuyunxing Dalun is viewing the "Five Elements" as a fully correlated System Array. It binds nature (global variables) perfectly with human internal organs and emotional responses.
- I/O Ports (Organs & Climate): The five organs are API endpoints receiving natural climates. E.g., East generates wind; the wind parameter is sent directly to the "Liver" port.
- Data Patches (Nutrition): "Flavor" is the payload to repair and drive organs. Ingesting specific flavors (like sour for Wood) injects an update patch to the specific organ API.
- Error Logs & Cross-Module Interrupts (Emotions): Emotions are error logs and "Interrupt Requests (IRQ)". When the liver overloads in an infinite loop of "Anger", the system awakens the higher-privilege Lung module (Metal) to issue a "Grief" interrupt signal to forcefully suspend the liver's runaway state (Grief overcomes Anger).
| Direction | Element | Qi (Input) | Organ (API) | Flavor (Patch) | Color | Emotion (Error Log) |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| East | Wood | Wind | Liver | Sour | Azure | Anger (Grief overcomes) |
| South | Fire | Heat | Heart | Bitter | Red | Joy (Fear overcomes) |
| Center | Earth | Damp | Spleen | Sweet | Yellow | Thought (Anger overcomes) |
| West | Metal | Dry | Lung | Pungent | White | Grief (Joy overcomes) |
| North | Water | Cold | Kidney | Salty | Black | Fear (Thought overcomes) |
Health preservation is essentially "dynamic system resource allocation". Under different climates (inputs), using corresponding diets (patches) and emotional control (error handling) ensures the CPU and memory of the human machine won't crash due to I/O blockages.
