peter said:GetoJack,
Here is the link to Harmen Mesker site's "Downloads" section, just to PDF-file about 8 houses: http://www.i-tjingcentrum.nl/index....103&func=fileinfo&filecatid=1&parent=category . I don't know more complete sources.
peter said:Note also, that in each palace you can meet only 5 trigrams of 8 (if you don't take inner trigrams), and 3 will be absent. In feng-shui these palaces are sometimes marked by these absent trigrams, EG 469 (Xun-Qian-Li) or 237 (Kun-Zhen-Dui).
sparhawk said:Hi Peter, can you elaborate on this?
peter said:sparhawk,
elaborate on what? I believe it is evident. 469 marks the Palace of Dui (Lake), 489 - the Palace of Kun (Earth), 237 - the Palace of Li (Fire) etc. Numbers are taken from King Wen's circle of trigrams laid on Luo Shu square: 1 = Kan, 2 = Kun, 3 = Zhen and so on, till 9 = Li.

stevev said:but unfortunately I'm none the wiser. For a start I think using King Wen sequence numbers as the hexagram identities is a big problem, I'd prefer to use their numeric value instead. Which leads to the second problem: Is the top or the bottom line the LSB ?
frank_r said:In the late seventies a frenchman called Jean Morelleau made from the houses a horizontal sequence and called this the families.
Beginning with the family of the heaven, wind, mountain, earth, thunder, lake, fire and the last one family of the water. The sequence that all the 8 houses are following.

This is the same sequence you mentioned, Olivia Octavia wrote also about this in one of her books in Spanish (she´s from Argentina).
I'm working with this sequence in my acpuncture treatments.
The sequence of the 8 houses is used a lot in old China with deseases.
In the book of Dr Wang Yang & Jon Sandifer(the Autentic I Ching) there are some exemples where they used it with ilnesses.
sparhawk said:Hi Frank,
Do you have any further information about Jean Morelleau?
Luis
frank_r said:I don't know in which of his books he wrote this. I don't read french.
But Luis do you know something more about the houses I'm also interested because I'm also studying it already some years(I'm using it as I treat my patients) and everything new about this system I 'm happy with.
lightofreason said:Dont consider using any numbers other than the traditional for expressions - they are unfortunately set in stone.
stevev said:because it simply makes no sense to relate back the the King Wen sequence numbers when your running through another sequence where their numerical value is the easiest way of relating two sequences.
