客运者,亦一年五步,每步各得七十三日零五刻。假如甲己之年为土运,甲属阳土为太宫,己属
阴土为少宫。故甲年则太宫为初运;太生少,故少商为二运;少又生太,故太羽为三运;太
又生少,故少角为四运;少又生太,故太征为终运。己年则少宫阴土为初运,少宫生太商为
二运,太商生少羽为三运,少羽生太角为四运,太角生少征为终运。太少互生,凡十年一主
令而竟天干也。但主运则必春始于角而冬终于羽,客运则以本年中运为初运而以次相生,
此主运客运之所以有异也。夫五运六气者,无非天地之气候,六气有司天在泉以主岁,五
运有大运以主岁,六气有主客气以主岁时,五运亦有主客运以行天令。运气全书云∶地之六
位则分主于四时,天之五运亦相生而终岁度。天元玉册截法中亦有岁之客运,行于主运之
上,与六气主客之法同。虽本经未有明言,而运气生化之理,在所必至,当以天元玉册为法。

Explanation of the Diagram of Secondary Movements of the Five Movements
Secondary movements (Ke Yun, Secondary Movements) also divide a year into five steps, with each step comprising seventy-three days and five ke (ancient time units). For example, in years of Jia and Ji, the Earth movement (Tu Yun, Earth Movement) prevails. Jia belongs to Yang Earth, termed Tai Gong (Greater Gong); Ji belongs to Yin Earth, termed Shao Gong (Lesser Gong). Therefore, in Jia years, Tai Gong serves as the first movement; since Tai generates Shao, Shao Shang (Lesser Shang) becomes the second movement; Shao again generates Tai, so Tai Yu (Greater Yu) is the third movement; Tai again generates Shao, thus Shao Jue (Lesser Jue) is the fourth movement; Shao again generates Tai, making Tai Zhi (Greater Zhi) the final movement. In Ji years, Shao Gong (Yin Earth) serves as the first movement; Shao Gong generates Tai Shang (Greater Shang) for the second movement; Tai Shang generates Shao Yu (Lesser Yu) for the third movement; Shao Yu generates Tai Jue (Greater Jue) for the fourth movement; Tai Jue generates Shao Zhi (Lesser Zhi) for the final movement. The mutual generation of Shao and Tai governs for ten years, completing the cycle of Heavenly Stems. However, Primary movements (Zhu Yun, Primary Movements) must begin with Jue in spring and end with Yu in winter, whereas Secondary movements take the Central movement (Zhong Yun, Central Movement) of that year as the first movement and proceed by sequential generation. This is why Primary and Secondary movements differ. Regarding the Five Movements and Six Qi (Wu Yun Liu Qi, Five Movements and Six Qi), they are nothing but the climatic changes of Heaven and Earth. The Six Qi have Sovereign Qi (Si Tian, Sovereign Qi) and Subterranean Qi (Zai Quan, Subterranean Qi) to govern the year; the Five Movements have the Great Movement (Da Yun, Great Movement) to govern the year; the Six Qi have Primary Qi (Zhu Qi, Primary Qi) and Secondary Qi (Ke Qi, Secondary Qi) to govern seasons and years; the Five Movements also have Primary and Secondary movements to execute the commands of Heaven. The *Book of Movements and Qi* states: "The six positions of the Earth separately govern the four seasons, while the five movements of Heaven also generate each other to span the entire year." The method of cutting in the *Tianyuan Yuce* also includes secondary movements of the year, operating above the primary movements, identical to the method of primary and secondary Qi of the Six Qi. Although this classic does not explicitly state this, the principle of generation and transformation of movements and qi is inevitable, and one should follow the method of the *Tianyuan Yuce*.
