时空质能 - Time-space & Mass-energy
和佛教地水火风的时空质能模型类似的，阴阳五行也有自己的时空质能模型。
Similar to the time-space-energy model of Buddhism's earth-water-fire-wind, the yin-yang Five Elements also have their own time-space-energy model.
质能 - Mass-energy
质能不同于时空，没有方位概念，为了方便记录，做了如下规约，
东方木；
南方火；
西方金；
北方水；
中央土。
类似于现在科学所说的“波粒二象”或者“质能二元”，华夏文明的著作中，称之为五行的“气”和“音”。
Energy differs from time and space and does not have a concept of direction. For the purpose of convenient record-keeping, the following conventions have been made,
East - Wood;
South - Fire;
West - Metal;
North - Water;
Center - Earth.
Similar to the modern scientific concept of "wave-particle duality" or "energy duality," in Chinese civilization's texts, it is referred to as the "qi" and "yin" of the Five Elements.
河图 - The River Chart (Shi Shu Tu)
抄一段古文，
尾气始于东方而左行。音起于西方而右行，阴阳根错而生变化。
所谓气始于东方者。四时始于木，右行传于火，火传于土，土传于金，金传于水；
所谓音始于西方者，五音始于金，在旋传于火，火传于木，木传于水，水传于土。
这段话是从“河图”演绎来的。
A passage from ancient text,
The qi begins in the east and moves left. The yin begins in the west and moves right, the yin and yang roots cross and change is born.
The so-called qi beginning in the east, the four seasons begin with wood, moving right to fire, fire to earth, earth to metal, metal to water;
The so-called yin beginning in the west, the five sounds begin with metal, rotating to fire, fire to wood, wood to water, water to earth.
This passage is derived from the "River Chart.
河图之数分天地，以观察者为中心，
低头看大地，那就是上西下东右北左南；
抬头看天空，则是上西下东左北右南。
由于上古中古与近古出现的历史断代，怀疑其中经历过一次地球磁极自东西转南北的巨大改变。从中西方神话、历史来看，有过一次“大洪水”时代似乎可以印证。在中华大地上，差不多是“大禹治水”的时间。河图早于这个时代，体现的很有可能是东西磁极的情况。
The River Chart divides sky and earth according to the observer's center,
Looking down at the earth, it is the upper west, lower east, right north, and left south.
Looking up at the sky, it is the upper west, lower east, left north, and right south.
Due to historical gaps between ancient and medieval periods, it is suspected that there was a major change in the Earth's magnetic poles from east-west to north-south. From Chinese and Western myths and history, there seems to have been a "great flood" era, which can be verified. On the Chinese mainland, it is around the time of "Da Yu controlling the water." The River Chart predates this era, and it is likely that it reflects the situation of the east-west magnetic poles.
河图描述的是五行“气”、“音”的转换关系。
一三五七九对应五行之“气”，从一开始。走的是五行相生的次序，
东方一木，生南方三火，生中央五土，生西方七金，生北方九水，又重新生木；

The River Chart describes the conversion relationship of the Five Elements' "qi" and "yin".
The numbers 1, 3, 5, 7, and 9 correspond to the Five Elements' "qi," starting from 1. It follows the order of Five Elements' mutual generation,
East 1 Wood, generates South 3 Fire, generates Center 5 Earth, generates West 7 Metal, generates North 9 Water, and generates Wood again;

The numbers 2, 4, 6, 8, and 10 correspond to the Five Elements' "yin," starting from West 2 Metal.
West 2 Metal, transmits South 4 Fire, transmits East 6 Wood, transmits North 8 Water, transmits Center 10 Earth, and transmits back to Metal again.

时空 - Time-space
时空其实是一个模型，需要满足，
没有人能超脱天地，这个模型中必须有“自己”；
涵盖四维；
稳定的；
简单；
方便扩展。
这个模型就是“洛书”。
Time and space are actually a model that needs to meet certain requirements,
No one can transcend sky and earth, there must be a "self" in this model;
Covering four dimensions;
Stable;
Simple;
Convenient to expand.
This model is the "Luoshu (Lo Shu)".
洛书 - Lo Shu
如果说河图描述质能模型，那么洛书则描绘了一个可能的四维时空的最小稳定模型——九宫，
以“吾（五）”为中心；
纵横对角皆稳定平衡，正是时空四维；
本模型是最小的数值解，稳定；
一个九宫可以嵌套另一个九宫，如此层层扩展，构建整个世界。
If the River Chart describes the energy model, then Luoshu depicts a possible four-dimensional space-time minimum stable model - Nine Palaces,
"I (Five)" is on the center;
The vertical and horizontal diagonals are stable and balanced, which is the four dimensions of space-time;
This model is the minimum numerical solution, and it is stable;
One Nine Palaces can be nested in another Nine Palaces, so it can be expanded layer by layer to construct the entire world.

周易是从“洛书”发展开来而得，是在“时空”模型上推导而得，所以具有一定的“预测”功能。
The I Ching, or Book of Changes, was developed from the "Luoshu" and is derived from the "time and space" model, so it has a certain "prediction" function.
