This review is different from those in past modules. You already have the entire list of clues in The Facts, Just the Facts. You have all the ramifications of the difficult design details in your detective notes from which you forged your mystery story. You asked your questions during the Press Conference calls. Now it’s time to look beyond; to see into and through the mystery of the Ba-gua.

First, I recommend that you consider returning to Module 2, No Time for Sex, and purchase Shedding Light on the Ba-gua found in Insider Information. With thanks to Richard Feather Anderson, you will find the answers to two questions, “Where on Heaven and Earth did the Ba-gua come from?” and “Why does it make sense to overlay the Ba-gua on our physical environment?”

Then you can listen to The Four Pairs . . . Before & After Creation. You will find the audio in Trade Secrets in this Case File. Richard discusses the evolution of the Former Heaven arrangement
of the Ba-gua into the Later Heaven sequence, revealing how these archetypal forces act in the material world we inhabit. For those of you new to the existence of more than one Bagua, Feather makes it easy. Just dive in. We are here to help.

As you listen, you are building the foundation to better understand how the details of this floor plan tell you where our young professional stands in life and in connection with that which is greater than her momentary suffering. You are seeing through the Later Heaven Ba-gua to the fundamental principles, or universal laws, of the Former Heaven Ba-gua— the laws that govern life. There are messages here that inform our work.

First, it is important to understand that the Later Heaven Ba-gua takes us through the turning points of life, beginning with the “arousing,” or Thunder, and moving clockwise around the periphery. The arrangement corresponds to the actual process of our space-time conditioned world; the cycles of birth and death, the seasons, and night and day. Yet, man embraces the earthly and the divine at the same time. The Former Heaven Ba-gua is always present, hiding just behind our Later Heaven Ba-gua—our Feng Shui Ba-gua. Imagine our Ba-gua as transparent. When you can see the universal concepts in the background, your questions will become sentient. I think you will be surprised by their precision. With a number of missing guas in this floor plan—all with trouble in their opposite guas—it is vitally important to access the depth of knowledge about each and every trigram.
