Minda and I joined Prof. Pang’s (彭泓基教授) course named “Chinese Traditional Wisdom Management” (中華智慧管理學) and the second lecture was held on 18^th Apr 2026. 

In the beginning, Prof. Pang review the exercise of I Ching and Divination (易經與術數) for analyzing his friend problem using Eight Characters(八字命理). He concluded the foundation concepts such as Grudges and Love (恩怨情仇).

He then reviewed the management methods of the I Ching and the differences between the Eastern and Western worlds.

This diagram summarized Chinese wisdoms.

After that Prof. Pang using Eight Characters (八字命理) and I Ching’s divination to suggest the solution to his friend.  

Reviewed the Eight Characters and considered his Major Luck Cycle and Annual Luck Cycle(大運與流年) for analysis.

And then he introduced how to use prompt engineering in DeepSeek after collecting the basic information.

We all focused to listen Prof. Pang’s explanation.

He using the previous 5 years and next year for fortune analysis (運勢解析).

The analysis results are summarized by year, target, risk level, and whether or not to be done.

He also used the Plum Blossom Changing Maths (梅花易數) to seek advice.

The detailed explanation was discussed.

In conclusion, Prof. Pang stated that while Eight Characters (八字命理) is used to obtain macro-level background information, resolving complex issues requires the application of micro-level I Ching divination methods. Furthermore, it can be combined with Plum Blossom Changing Maths (梅花易數), “Coin Divination” (金錢卦), or other divination methods. 

After the lecture, we had lunch with Prof. Pang together.
