ASTRONOMY 7. 北極周圍的星座被分為三個星區， “ 紫微 ” 垣象徵天子的寢宮，居於中央，為 “ 既濟流通 ” 之所，與紫色的屬性一致，故稱。 “ 太微 ” 垣象徵處理政事的朝廷。 “ 天市 ” 垣象徵包圍在列國中的市集。

ASTRONOMY 12. 四象，古人對二十八宿按方位作的劃分，東方蒼龍是 “ 角亢氐房心尾箕 ” 七宿，北方玄武是 “ 鬥牛女虛危室壁 ” 七宿，西方白虎是 “ 奎婁胃昴畢觜參 ” 七宿，南方朱雀是 “ 井鬼柳星張冀軫 ” 七宿。四陸，用來表示太陽運行路線的術語，其涵義在古代有兩種說法，其中一種說法 “ 四陸 ” 與 “ 四象 ” 對應，但另外一種說法則是東方蒼龍與 “ 西陸 ” 對應，西方白虎與 “ 東陸 ” 對應。

ASTRONOMY 13. 營室，二十八宿之一，即室宿。營頭，妖星名，形態為象山崩一樣墜下的雲，所墮之處將兵敗。營惑，五行星中火星的異名。營星，既可指恆星 “ 營室 ” ，也可指妖星 “ 營頭 ” ，還可指行星 “ 太白 ” 。
