Rotating Matrix and iChing Caesar Cipher

Color Number Matrix and iChing Cipher

Rotating Matrix

The Color Number Matrix which I had design just got a little bit more complicated, as inspired by the Hamster Sunflower Animated GIF I had design a Rotating Matrix using the old design. As you can see from the picture above the Transparency which I had design can be place in 4 different position by rotating 90 degree. The original idea is to had Dragon facing North, Unicorn facing East, Phoenix facing South and Lion facing West. With the Transparency Design which make it possible to rotate I can create another three set of Color Number Matrix. 

The application had even more unlimited possibilities as the Color Number Matrix can change due to the Location or Direction. I was planning to use the Rubik Cube idea to design the Rotating Matrix but find it difficult to comprehend as it had too many variations. And you can see that the iChing Caesar Cipher which I had modify from the iChing Cipher is base on the Feng Shui Compass.

 The iChing Cipher had been tabulated according to iChing Chart Table and corresponds to the 64 variations which is related to it. As I had only use 36 of it, I had rearrange it in Numeric Order. The Compass had 360 degree, the 12 Zodiac match the 24 hours in a day at two hours intervals. So 360 Degree divided by 12 Zodiac will give 30 degree. By shifting the iChing Caesar Cipher by 3 position will give 12 different variations which can be use for different timing of the day or different Seasons of the Year.

Solar Terms Matching Horoscopes

There are 24 Seasons in a Year known as Solar Terms and it actually match perfectly with the 12 Horoscope. It also match the Compass 360 degree at 30 degree interval. Due to that idea, the iChing Caesar Cipher 12 different variations will be able to have unlimited possibilities in various applications.
