神馬河圖

相傳古時候，伏羲對周遭的自然有了深入的觀察，但是，這些觀察並未使他理出頭緒。直到有一天，黃河中突然跑出「龍馬」，這一刻他發現自己處於強烈的精神震撼之中，感到自己與所膜拜的自然之間有一種莫名的一致。神馬身上的圖案與自己一直觀察萬物的意向暗合。伏羲根據這些啟示畫出「八卦」，而「龍馬」身上的圖案就叫做「河圖」。

An ancient man called Fuxi inspired by a dragon horse that suddenly came out from Yellow River. The patterns on the horse enlightened him with the basic understanding of the universe. He then drawn the eight trigrams which visualize the elements of the world, and the patterns on dragon horse are called the scheme of river.
