洪範曰:「土爰稼穡。」 不成則為咎徵。 凡恒風霾、晦冥、花妖、蟲孽、牛禍、地震、山頹、雨毛、地生毛、年饑、黃眚、黃祥皆屬之於土。
The Great Plan states, "Earth is defined as bringing forth the harvest." When earth fails in this office, the result is a sign of cosmic blame." Persistent unseasonable wind and haze, unnatural darkness, floral prodigies, insect plagues, bovine calamities, earthquakes, mountain collapses, fiber-like rain, hair sprouting from the soil, famine years, and yellow portents of every kind all belong to the element of earth.
