The eight sided symbol of the Bagua is characteristic of Chinese Feng Shui and astrology, and is also sacred in many other cultures. There is nothing pagan about this eight sided symbol, which is in fact, as this article will show, a very sacred holy symbol of God. Some who regarded this symbol as demonic are in danger of blasphemy against the Holy Spirit. We have to go back to the ancient roots of civilisations. Historians regard the Sumerians as the most ancient of all civilisations and from which other civilisations likely arose. In the dawn of human history, the written language was highly pictorial. It is relevant to note the pictorial diagram for the ancient word used by the ancient Sumerians (circa 3000 BC) for 'God', which is the 8 points star-like diagram below on the left:
This ancient Sumerian "8-points star" word (circa 3000 BC) for 'God', pronounced as "AN" is rather similar to the Chinese eight sided Feng Shui sign of the Bagua, illustrated above in the middle. In the eight sided Bagua of the I Ching, the North is the location of the throne of Shang Di, the Supreme God. It is always the position to sit, thereby facing South, the Feng Shui auspicious direction. Chinese oracle bone character for "God", "TI", is also a 8 points cross, as in the above right figure. Thus, this ancient Sumerian "8-points star" word (circa 3000 BC) for 'God' is also very similar to 'TI', the ancient Chinese word for 'God'. The ancient Chinese word "TI" gave rise to another Chinese word for "God" which is "TIAN".
Ti and Jehovah TI, the ancient Chinese word for 'God' also has a variant depicting a standing man. This man-like form of the Chinese word for 'God' is actually the same as the Hebrew word for 'God', Jehovah. The Chinese script is written from top to bottom, while the Hebrew script is written from right to left. In reality, the Hebrew word, Jod-He-Vah-He, is the same as the Chinese word 'TI'.
All these pictorial names are formed through arrangements of 4 lines. The 4 lines originally form the 8 points star, which is the Sumerian and Chinese oracle bone figure for God. The 4 lines transform to the Hebrew YHVH and the modern Chinese "TI" and "TIAN". What is even more astonishing is that the Hindu also called God by the word 'AUM'. See how this Hindu word 'AUM', despite its more curvative strokes, is similar to the Chinese word 'TI' for God.
The significant thing is that the ancient cultures all knew the sacred name of God! When the Holy Bible says that there is no other name under which one can be saved, it is this name which is meant!
The Sumerian Hindu Chinese AN - AUM - TIAN are all the same names of God. Besides "YHVH", other Biblical names of God are "AMEN", "IM", "EM", and "ON". Where the names are pictorialised, their pictorial characters are also very similar. There is no doubt that that "Jesus" (or rather, "Joshua") was the personal name of the Lord Jesus Christ. But, the ancient men of God did not know God by this name but his other 8-points star name.Four Cardinal Directions of Feng Shui The Bagua has two major derivations, vis the Four Heraldic Beasts and the auspicious South facing. A significant characteristic feature of Feng Shui and also astrology is the Four Cardinal Directions, which compose four of the eight sides of the Bagua symbol. In Feng Shui and also astrology, the Four Cardinal Directions are the Red Phoenix at the South, Green Dragon at the East, White Tiger at the West and Black Warrior (Man, Tortoise or Serpent) at the North.
Instead of rushing to regard these Four Cardinal Directions and their Four Heraldic Beasts are superstitious, Christians should realise that the Holy Bible records them as the four beasts around the throne of God:
Christian writers like Bullinger have written that these Four Heraldic Beasts are also the four animals the Four Gospels are associated with:
Christian writers have known that the Lion and Ox correspond to the astrological star systems of Leo the Lion and Taurus the Ox. The Four Heraldic Beasts are universal astrological symbols. One of the significant problems with Christians is that they do not know what to do with these obvious astrological symbolism. Many of them have treated these passages about the Four Heraldic Beasts as superfluous. These passages were significant to the prophets who look into God's prophecies in the books of Ezekiel and Revelation, which refer to the Four Heraldic Beasts. The inability of Christians to evaluate what these passages man indicate that these Christians do not have God's inspiration. Some even blasphemies the Word of God by branding these astrology as demonic.
Crux Ansata The South-North axis of the Four Cardinal Directions is also known as the Crux ansata. This Crux ansata has the eagle at the South at the top and the serpent at the North at the bottom. The Holy Bible referred a number of times to this Crux ansata. Kang and Nelson (1979) at least indicated further links between the Holy Bible and the universal astrology of the Four Heraldic Beasts or Directions when they note the significance of the Chinese word 'Fuk' for "Good Fortune". Kang and Nelson (1979) had shown that the word is a reminder of the time when man was with God in the Garden of Eden. The Garden of Eden is represented by the Chinese word 'TIEN' for field, a diagram of a square with a cross within, creating four squares together. Kang and Nelson (1979) had correctly interpreted the Chinese word 'Fuk' as the Holy Spirit (animal form = dove) coming from the top of the word (which is South) and the Devil (animal form = serpent) at the North. Some of the cryptic statements about the bird and serpent in the Holy Scriptures also relate to this Crux ansata of the Four Heraldic Beasts:
The eagle (and also the bird) and serpent form the South-North axis of the Four Cardinal Directions. They also form the South-North axis of the caduceus, that symbol of medicine. The Crux ansata always refers to the battle between the Holy Spirit, represented by the bird at the South, and the Devil, represented by the serpent at the North, for the mind of Man. The Phoenix is the mortal enemy of the serpents. According to Feng Shui lore, you must use the Fire of the Phoenix to destroy the evil of the serpent.
Significance of Astrological Four Heraldic Beasts Christians simply try to rush away in fear from the Biblical passages about the Four Heraldic Beasts. Fear, because their ignorance could betray whether they really understand the Word of God. Their hypocrisy is that, while ignorant of what the Four Heraldic Beasts mean, they pretend to interpret the rest of the books of Ezekiel and Revelation. The Bagua was the original ancient name of God!
