Investigating axes of reflection upon the XMS (xian tian magic square) revealed that reflection across the top-bottom or left-right axes of the XMS resulted in a pair of hexagrams that differed only by complementing the top or bottom trigram.Shar Qaanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12437811464432879555noreply@blogger.com
