What are thể and dụng in Mai Hoa Dịch Số?
According to the book, of the two trigrams in a hexagram, the trigram without the moving line is thể and the trigram with the moving line is dụng; thể is oneself, dụng is the matter at hand. The book states that if thể overcomes dụng, all matters go well; if dụng overcomes thể, all matters go badly; if thể generates dụng, there is loss; if dụng generates thể, there is gain; if thể and dụng are in harmony, things are favourable. This is a convention of the school, not a verified rule.
