Bazi and the Five Elements: The Historical Transmission and Modern Application of Traditional Cultural Semiotics

According to the phenomenon of the contemporary Chinese masses' craze for metaphysical fortune-telling, topics related to metaphysics continue to emerge from the Internet. Among them, noticed that compared with Western Metaphysics, Eastern Metaphysics is clearly characterized by words, images, and meanings, that is to say, through words, a series of things are formed, and with reference to the operation of the things among them, different scenes are formed, and from the scenes, one's life is interpreted. And therefore, interviewed two masters of the trade and many documents and annotated editions of traditional ancient books to confirm my hypothesis. In the end, discovered the origins of Bazi fortune-telling and how it has evolved to date, and explained that the reason for the current metaphysical craze is that people are looking for comfort in an increasingly evolving society, to understand the root causes of what is happening around them, and to eliminate the subjective mindset to get rid of stress.
