Daliuren: reading a situation through layered relationships
Daliuren is a classical Chinese divination system known for its four lessons and three transmissions. It reads a question through layered relationships between people, roles and movement.
THE SHORT ANSWER
Its depth comes from relationship and sequence. It is best used to make a situation more legible, not to create certainty where the evidence is still incomplete.
01
What it observes
The four lessons and three transmissions create a sequence of symbolic relationships. Traditional readings examine how the initial situation develops through roles, supports and changes.
02
How to read it
Keep the question narrow and distinguish what is known from what is assumed. A layered method is valuable only when the reader stays clear about which layer is being discussed.
03
How Mingora uses it
Mingora translates the structure into a relationship map: who is involved, where attention is moving and what deserves confirmation. It avoids definitive claims about people or outcomes.
KEY CONCEPTS
Four lessons
The initial relational structure used to frame the question.

Roles
Positions in the situation are more useful when linked to observable behavior.
QUESTIONS TO CARRY
- Which relationship in this situation needs clearer boundaries?

- What confirmation would change my next step?
