The I-Ching or 8 Trigrams | Family SequencesteemCreated with Sketch.

in i-ching •  8 years ago  (edited)

There are six harmonic means that can be placed between 1 and 1/2 when dividing a string. Put another way, there are six, and only six, precise locations to physically-derive through the nature of plucking a string harmonic sounds.

The two primary divisions of an Octave are the Parents Heaven and Earth. and the six children of the trigrams are the six harmonic ratios found in music.

The Complete binary opposites of the Trigrams Ch'ien (father; Creative) and K'un (mother; Receptive) are binary opposites of light and dark and are in the order:

<<<Ch'ien, Sun, Li, Tui, Ken, K'an, Chen, K'un>>>

It's really cool that you know about the i-ching. I used to have the book, and also the divinatory with the coins. I found/find it still pretty 'over my head' yet absolutely fascinating. I think with age I will be able to comprehend it better. I'm assuming then, that you have read the Tao Te Ching?

My dad would have me playing with the I-ching cards when I was like 4 years old. It wasn't until years later I began to see things with different eyes. There was a new realization whereby the stuff we are all using here in crypto-world is actually just the MINDSTUFF...the Mind is all there is (and the stillness is the Source) and that's what divination tries to unravel; essentially how this relationship exists between that which is still and that part of our reality that MOVES.

The mind has 4 basic parts, according to the Hindu sages. The I-Ching hexagrams and this ancient form of science / astrology changed over the years into so many systems. I think in some ways the Cryptocurrencies are also the ETHER, which is the first compression or octave of pure Mind.

Thank you for your further explanations @zackcovell, I will check out the link you sent too, and I agree, the free internet, including cryptocurrency, is the ETHER.

Good article and good information, thanks!
