I always watch the deck review videos on youtube ~ I won't even buy a deck until I've seen every last card in the deck .

youtube is the best place to find a deck

here is an example of someone else using different colors 

here's another example

I walk the circle two and a half hours a day 6 days a week holding energy postures  ~ I've been doing it for 6 years 

so you use different baguas for different purposes 

so I guess the colors would keep changing ~ I really don't know what to think about it 

I just like being able to read the hexagrams from the taiji symbol with the colors assigned to the trigrams

The above reference grid is one example of compass direction to trigram correspondences.

Below you’ll find two versions of the dial that are both referred to as the Later Heaven Ba Gua, but feature different trigram arrangements, and therefore will align differently to the compass directions than what you see up top.

Yes, there are different versions of the “Later Heaven Ba Gua.” Different traditions practice differently is the shortest explanation I have for that.

I use tarot decks 

I ching  oracle decks 

rune decks 

and other various oracle decks 

 they are all magic 

nice grimoire

the tao oracle is an I ching book that assignes  colors to trigrams

I would at least go with the traditional attributions from the I Ching.  Earth is yellow, Water is black, Fire is red.  The rest can be determined via seasonal associations of the trigrams.  Thunder is green -- Spring, etc..  

I didn't know about that ~ I want to use the correct colors ~ I just don't know what they are ~ it would be nice if there were colors assigned originally so there won't be all of the confusion from everyone using different colors 

there should be a system already in place that is the same all over the world ~ ( I would think )

are you talking about this ? because it's not trigrams  ~ you would have to help me see the light because I am lost in the confusion of it all 

okay ~ I guess I'll stay with the colors I'm using now 

I got them from this Oracle  ~ I think it's ingenious how she made a picture for each trigram ~ also I don't even need to see a hexagram ~ all I need to see is what color is on top of what color in the yin yang symbol

there is a yin yang symbol at the top of each card

I guess that also means I have the freedom to assign my own colors if I want to  

here is an example of someone else using different colors 

I am about to start a project and I need to associate colors with the trigrams 

I am using a system that has assigned the following colors to the trigrams

=======================================

heaven ~ white

earth ~ black

fire ~ yellow 

water ~ blue

wind ~ jade green

thunder ~ red

lake ~ pink

mountain ~ dark green

======================================

so before starting my project I wanted to double check the colors online to make sure that they are the correct colors ~ 

but online everyone is using different colors 

Does anyone know what the correct colors are 

I respectfully request A personal practice discussion thread  please 

looking forward to studying & learning here.
