From Qian Wei Tian to Huo Tian Da You

Recently, more and more people in Japan have begun asking questions such as:

“Why is Japan so lenient toward crimes committed by foreigners?”

“Why are there so many cases where even traffic deaths or violent crimes end in non-prosecution?”

This is not a topic that should be discussed purely through emotion or prejudice.

At the same time, however, many Japanese people undeniably feel that:

“Something is fundamentally wrong.”

With that in mind, I conducted a Plum Blossom Numerology (梅花心易 / Baika Shingeki) divination using the following date and time:

May 21, 2026 — 14:25

The Divination Setup

Date and Time:
May 21, 2026, 14:25 (Hour of the Goat / 未)

Numbers Used:

• Year branch: Horse (午) = 7
• Month: 5
• Day: 21
• Hour: Goat (未) = 8

Calculation Formula

Upper Trigram:

$(7+5+21)\bmod 8 = 33\bmod 8 = 1$(7+5+21)mod8=33mod8=1

Lower Trigram:

$(7+5+21+8)\bmod 8 = 41\bmod 8 = 1$(7+5+21+8)mod8=41mod8=1

Moving Line:

$41\bmod 6 = 5$41mod6=5

Resulting Hexagrams

• Primary Hexagram: Qian Wei Tian (乾為天)
• Moving Line: Fifth Line
• Transformed Hexagram: Huo Tian Da You (火天大有)

What Qian Wei Tian Represents

Qian Wei Tian symbolizes:

• Heaven
• Authority
• National governance
• Centralized power
• Political leadership

This immediately suggests that the issue is not merely about individual police officers, prosecutors, or isolated court decisions.

The root lies much higher.

It points toward:

• National strategy
• Population policy
• Economic management
• International diplomacy
• Structural state priorities

Furthermore, the moving line appears in the fifth position — the ruler’s seat.

In traditional Yi symbolism, the fifth line often represents the sovereign, leadership, or governing authority itself.

In other words:

This situation is not accidental.

It reflects a broader national direction and intentional policy trend.

“Japanese Kindness” Alone Does Not Explain It

Many people explain the situation by saying:

“Japanese people believe in human goodness.”

“Japan is simply too kind.”

“Japanese society is naive.”

There is some truth to that.

However, according to this hexagram, the deeper cause is far more practical and strategic.

The real driving forces likely include:

• Labor shortages
• Aging population
• Diplomatic pressure
• Avoidance of international friction
• Human rights scrutiny
• Corporate demand for workers
• Preservation of Japan’s international image
• Economic sustainability

This is not merely “kindness.”

It resembles:

“A calculated tolerance designed to preserve national stability.”

The Meaning of Huo Tian Da You

The transformation leads to Huo Tian Da You:

“The Great Possession.”

This hexagram symbolizes:

• Prosperity
• Wealth
• Expansion
• National abundance
• Maintenance of power and resources

This is highly significant.

It suggests that current policies are fundamentally aimed at preserving:

• Economic continuity
• Labor force stability
• International relationships
• National competitiveness

Even if social friction or perceptions of unfairness increase,
the state apparatus prioritizes maintaining overall prosperity.

Thus, the divination implies that:

“Economic survival and national maintenance”

are currently being valued above

“strict legal equality in public perception.”

This Is Not a Simple Matter of Good or Evil

It is important not to oversimplify this issue into:

“good vs evil.”

Governments do not operate solely on morality or emotion.

However, when ordinary citizens increasingly feel that:

“Japanese citizens are treated more harshly than foreigners,”

social distrust inevitably accumulates.

Qian Wei Tian is a powerful hexagram of authority,
but it also contains warnings about arrogance and detachment from public reality.

This suggests that tensions between:

• State-level rationality
  and
• Public emotional response

may continue to intensify in the coming years.

Conclusion

This Plum Blossom Numerology reading did not portray the issue as merely:

“Japanese idealism.”

Instead, it pointed toward:

“A pragmatic national strategy aimed at preserving stability and prosperity.”

Qian Wei Tian transforming into Huo Tian Da You reveals:

“A system willing to tolerate certain imbalances in order to maintain national prosperity.”

Yet such a structure also risks generating growing resentment, distrust, and social fragmentation among the population.

The real question is:

Can Japan continue balancing prosperity and social order simultaneously?

According to this hexagram,
Japan may already be approaching a critical turning point.
