阴阳五行学说是中国古代哲学思想的结晶，蕴含着古人经天纬地、博大精深的智慧，对古代农业生产、生活起居等方面产生了深刻的影响。石磨作为古代谷物加工的重要工具，其外形设计蕴藏着丰富的阴阳五行思想，体现出器道结合的中国传统造物意境，其位置摆放体现出对阴阳五行动态调和的考究。同时石磨作为特定的文化符号也蕴含着深厚的内涵，表达对持之以恒、以和为贵的精神的追求和承载着中华民族对于天地的信仰和自然的敬畏。
The theory of Yin Yang and Five Elements is the crystallization of ancient Chinese philosophical thought, containing the wisdom of the ancients in terms of understanding the heavens, the earth, and the vast and profound. It has had a profound impact on ancient agricultural production, daily life, and other aspects. As an important tool for ancient grain processing, the shape design of the stone mill contains rich ideas of the Yin Yang and Five Elements, reflecting the traditional Chinese creative atmosphere of combining tools and Dao. Its placement reflects the study of the dynamic harmony of the Yin Yang and Five Elements. At the same time, as a specific cultural symbol, the stone mill also contains profound connotations, expressing the pursuit of perseverance and the spirit of valuing harmony, and carrying the Chinese nation’s faith in heaven and earth and reverence for nature.
