Ch'ien: Heaven, symbolized by ≡ in the Eight Trigrams (pa kua); the trigram of the male cosmic principle, yang, opposite of k'un. -- W.T.C.
I: Change (often spelled yi), a fundamental principle of the universe, arising out of the interaction of the two cosmic forces of yin and yang, or passive and active principles, and manifested in natural phenomena, human affairs, and ideas. According to Confucian and Nco-Confucian cosmology, "In the system of Change, there is the Great Ultimate (T'ai Chi) which engenders the Two Modes (i). The Two Modes engender the Four Secondary Modes (hsiang), which in turn give rise to the Eight Trigirams (pa kua). These Eight Trigrams (or Elements) determine all good and evil and the great complexity of life." Thus it involves in the first place, the meaning of i, or simplicity from which complexity is evolved, in the second place, the meaning of hsiang, that is, phenomenon, image, form, and in the third place, the idea of "production and reproduction." -- W.T.C.
iching_trigrams
I Ching (Chinese) Also Yi King. The Book of Changes; also Holy Book of Mutations, these mutations being the manifestations of tao. The text of the original treatise is from a system of eight trigrams and 64 hexagrams, composed of whole and broken lines, thus:
Kua: Trigram. See Pa kua. Kuei: Man's spirit after death; earthly spirits coexisting with heavenly spirits (shen); the passive or negative (yin) aspect of the soul as against the active or positive (yang) aspect which is called hun; the operation of the passive cosmic principle, yin, (in Neo-Confucian-ism), -- W.T.C.
K'un: (a) The trigram of the element earth of the eight trigrams (pa kua). (b) The trigram of the female principle of the universe. See Ch'ien. -- H.H.
Pa Kua ::: Also "Bagua". Eight trigrams in Taoism that are used to represent fundamental principles of reality. A method of structuring and explaining the components that make up conscious experience through a Taoist lens.
Pa kua: The Chinese name of the Eight Trigrams or Elements (Heaven, Earth, Thunder, Mountain, Fire, Water, Water in Motion, Wind and Wood); Chinese occultists attribute mystic and magical powers to these eight signs or their proper combinations. A figure consisting of the eight trigrams and used as a charm or an object of worship, is also called pa kua.
Ssu te: The Four Virtues Being attentive to the fundamentals, penetrative, beneficial, and unflinching --the virtues of the trigram ch'ien (Heaven, male, yang) and therefore ethical ideals of the superior man. Filial piety, respect for elders, loyalty to superiors (chung), and good faith in social relationship (hsin). Lady-like conduct, speech, skill, and appearance. Also called ssu hsing.
Trigram: See: Pa kua.
triliteral ::: a. --> Consisting of three letters; trigrammic; as, a triliteral root or word. ::: n. --> A triliteral word.
Yi: Change. See: i. Yin yang: Passive and active principles, respectively, of the universe, or the female, negative force and the male, positive force, always contrasting but complimentary. Yang and yin are expressed in heaven and earth, man and woman, father and son, shine and rain, hardness and softness, good and evil, white and black, upper and lower, great and small, odd number and even number, joy and sorrow, reward and punishment, agreement and opposition, life and death, advance and retreat, love and hate, and all conceivable objects, qualities, situations, and relationships. The Two Modes (i -- --and --in trigram, or kua, symbols) of the Great Ultimate (T'ai Chi), from the interplay of which all things are engendered. A system constituted by the Five Agents or Elements (wu hsing) of Water, Fire, Wood, Metal, and Earth, which in turn constitute the Great Ultimate. (Chou Lien-hsi, 1017-1073). The two forces of ch'i, or the vital force which is the material principle of the universe. (Neo-Confucianism). Name of a school (400-200 B.C.) headed by Tsou Yen, which advocated that all events are manifestations of the passive or female force and the active or male force of the universe, and which was closely associated with popular geomancy, astrology, etc. --W.T.C. Yo: Music, or the social and cosmic principle of harmony. See: li (propriety). -- W.T.C.

for Khwan trigram (three broken lines) is of course the Symbol of our Lady, and the God below Her in the Stl is Li trigram (upper and lower lines solid, middle broken) the Sun.
All this is clear proof of the unspeakable power and wisdom of Those who have sent me to proclaim the Law.
1.59 - Geomancy, #Magick Without Tears, #Aleister Crowley, #Philosophy
You will presumably have noticed that the Geomantic figures are derived from taking the permutations of two things, four at a time, just as the trigrams of Fu-Hsi are two things taken three at a time, and the Hexa- grams of the Yi are two things taken six at a time.
The system is consequently based upon 16 figures and no more. Of course all systems of divinations which have any claim to be reasonable are based upon a map of the universe, or at least the Solar system, and 16 is really rather a limited number of units to manipulate.
1.65 - Man, #Magick Without Tears, #Aleister Crowley, #Philosophy
This shows Crowley's later attri butions of the Taoist principles including the eight trigrams of the Yi King to the Sephiroth. These differ somewhat from those in 777 col. XLVI and Appendix I.

The upper trigram means Mountain, the lower trigram means
Lake. The mountain towers above the lake and "restrains" it.

The lower trigram means Wind and Wood, the upper one Fire.
