The Taiyang and Jueyin Meridians share similar characteristics regarding Qi and Blood deficiency/excess patterns (Note: Classical theory varies, but translating strictly per text context implying specific categorizations); the Shaoyang and Taiyin Meridians are often characterized by deficient Blood. The Qi and Blood levels of the twelve meridians must be clearly distinguished.

The Sanjiao (Triple Energizer), Gallbladder, Kidney, Heart, Spleen, and Lung meridians are meridians with abundant Qi and deficient Blood;
