*What I'm about to share with you is something even many Chinese folks themselves don't know*
To many people, a Bagua is just a Bagua and they don't know there 2 different Baguas, let alone there are a need to "Open Light" (Activate / Consecrate) the 2 different Baguas , with 2 different Incantations respectively.
I truly hope this article can also reach as many Chinese folks as possible. Every year, millions of people buy Bagua pendants and mirrors to hang in their homes or wear for protection. Yet, most have no idea that these sacred symbols are effectively 'silent' until they are activated with an incantation—let alone that there are two distinct mantras: one for Pre-Heaven and one for Post-Heaven.
It is a tragedy that such vital spiritual knowledge has been lost or overlooked by so many who love these Taoist symbols but aren't Taoist Spiritual Practitioners themselves. Today, people buy cheap trinkets from online platforms or Feng Shui shops, sold by salespeople who aren't Taoist Masters or Sorcerers. They are buying items vomited out by factories by the millions—pieces that have never seen a proper, one-by-one consecration.
While I can’t reach everyone, I feel a responsibility to share this truth with those who are fated to read this. If you own a Bagua, it’s time to move beyond the trinket and understand the power.
To the modern world, the Bagua has become a decorative lucky charm. But in the true Taoist Spiritual / Sorcery Tradition, a Bagua without its specific incantation, it’s currently sitting idle. What I'm sharing here is exactly what the Spiritual Taoist Masters / Sorcerers used to "Open Light" (Consecrate / Activate) their 2 different types of Bagua (Eight Trigrams).
In this article, I am showing you the "activation codes" that have been kept within specialized lineages for centuries. We aren’t just looking at symbols; we are learning the mechanical difference between Pre-Heaven and Post-Heaven energies. One is a primordial storm used to clear out the darkest forces; the other is a sophisticated guardian of your daily peace and harmony.
Be warned: you must know the difference, because using the wrong power for the wrong job is a mistake you don't want to make.

Understand The Similarity & Differences Between the 2 Incantations
1. The Common Foundation (The "Same" Portion)
These are the "Universal Authorization" codes. Both incantations use these to establish the practitioner's authority and call in the celestial guards.
Regardless of which Bagua you use, these lines remain the same:
太极两仪镇中央 六十四卦排布阵 (The Taiji and Two Polarities guard the center; the 64 Hexagrams are set in array.)
妖邪鬼魅 化浮尘 六丁六甲左边守 天兵天降右侧护 (Evil spirits and ghosts turn to floating dust; the Six Ding and Six Jia spirits guard the left; Heavenly Troops protect the right.)
吾奉老君真敕令 敕下神宝八卦钱 (I follow the true command of Lord Lao Zi; I decree the power into this Eight Trigrams Coin.)
镇人人长生 镇宅 (车) 皆安宁 灵光照分明 鬼神走不停 (Protecting the person for longevity; protecting the home [or car] for peace; the spiritual light shines clearly; ghosts and gods flee without stopping.)
神兵火急如律令 急急如律令 (Celestial troops, act with the speed of fire, as the law decrees! Swiftly, swiftly, according to the command!)
The Active Catalysts (The "Difference" Portions)
The Pre-Heaven "Sword" (Martial & Destructive)
This portion invokes the raw, primordial elements to attack and destroy. It is about spiritual warfare.
The Power of Heaven: Commands troops to war (干卦统天兵).
The Power of Earth: Actively slays demons (坤卦斩妖精).
The Power of Thunder: Moves the heavenly army (震雷动天兵).
The Power of Fire: Burns the evil spirits (离火烧邪魔).
The Power of Lake/Marsh: Heroic troops to suppress evil (兑泽英雄兵).
The Power of Wind: Blows through mountains to chase spirits (巽风吹山岳...追邪兵).
The Power of Mountain: Shows divine might to seal "Ghost Roads" (艮山展威灵...封鬼路).
The Power of Water: Absorbs a thousand blessings to wash away filth (坎水纳千祥...秽气化无踪).
The Result: A "Cosmic Storm" that hunts down and eradicates negative entities.
The Post-Heaven "Shield" (Administrative & Harmonic)
This portion assigns a "General" or "Lord" to each of the eight physical directions. It is about territorial control and peace.
1st Command: Northwest General (乾卦西北将)
2nd Command: Water General of the North (坎卦水将军)
3rd Command: Spiritual Power of the Northeast (艮卦东北灵)
4th Command: Wood Star Lord of the East (震卦木星君)
5th Command: Southeast Troops (巽卦东南兵)
6th Command: Fire Dragon God of the South (离卦火龙神)
7th Command: Southwest Brightness (坤卦西南明)
8th Command: Golden Star descending in the West (兑卦金星降)
The Result: A perfectly balanced "Grid of Protection" for a physical space.
The Difference Portion is the Instruction: It tells the Gods whether you want them to "Go to War" (Pre-Heaven) or "Guard the Door" (Post-Heaven)
| Feature | Pre-Heaven (Xian Tian) | Post-Heaven (Hou Tian) |
| The Vibe | Martial & Aggressive. This is a weapon. | Administrative & Harmonious. This is a shield. |
| The Action | It talks about slaying (斩), burning (烧), and breaking (破) spirits. | It talks about Generals (将), Star Lords (星君) |
| The Spatial Logic | Uses Natural Elements (Thunder, Wind, Mountain) to create a cosmic storm. | Uses Compass Directions (Northwest, Southeast, etc.) to grid a physical building. |
| Best Use Case | When a place is heavily haunted, cursed, or has extreme negative "Sha" energy. | For daily protection, blessing a new home, a new car, or personal safety. |
If you’ve read this far, you are already ahead of 90% of the people who own a Bagua. You’ve moved past the "lucky charm" phase and entered the realm of the practitioner. You now understand that a Bagua isn't just a piece of brass or wood vomited out of a factory; it is a spiritual circuit that requires your voice to complete the connection.
Remember the Golden Rule of Activation:
The Pre-Heaven Bagua is your sword. Use it only when the "air" is heavy, when shadows linger, and when you need the primordial forces of the universe to clear a path.
The Post-Heaven Bagua is your shield. Use it to grid your home, bless your car, and ensure that your daily life is governed by harmony and order.
I share this with a heavy heart, knowing that so many of my own people have traded this deep wisdom for convenience and cheap storefront "remedies." But for you—the one fated to find this article—you now hold the "Missing Manual."
Don't just hang your Bagua and hope for the best. Activate it. Give it the authority to protect you. Use the right words for the right purpose, and you will see that these ancient symbols are not just relics of the past—they are living, breathing engines of spiritual science.
Stay Protected. Stay Aware.
Personal Note from Taoist Sorcery Master: If You can't activate the Baguas by Yourself, I have Baguas and Talismans that are already Consecrated , or to be customized for You and have it consecrated. My fees are very expensive and not many people can afford my fees, or interested to pay the high fee, but at least now You have learned what You have not been told and know what You need to know.
