Profile
Origin
Fu Xi[a] is the brother (or husband) of Nuwa and one of the central deities of Chinese folk religion. His ancient clan, along with Shennong and Suiren's, defined the early mythical Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors period.[1] He is credited with pioneering fishing[2] and trapping, as well as creating the bagua[b] seen in the Classic of Changes[c] that form the basis of traditional Chinese divination.[3][4]
