乙酉年运气图
阳明燥金司天,少阴君火在泉,中运为少商金运。岁金不及,气化营运滞后于天时。少商之金不及,却与司天之阳明燥金同化,这称为“天符”。又因金运临于酉年,这称为“岁会”。上应天符,下应岁会,三者相合为治,名为“太一天符”,这是气机平和的年份。平定金的年份,纪称为“审平”。收敛而不争竞,肃杀而不侵犯,五行的生化宣通明朗。其气洁净,其性刚强,其用散落,其化坚敛。其政令劲急肃杀,其气候清冷切骨,其命令为燥,其类属金,其对应秋季,其五谷为稻,其五果为桃,其果实外壳坚硬,其五虫为介虫(有壳类),其五畜为鸡,其五色为白,其五味为辛,其五音为商,其成数为九。其物外表坚硬,在人则对应:其脏为肺,其主窍为鼻,其滋养皮毛,其病表现为咳嗽。这是运化的规律。
天地之气方面:天气表现为燥化,左间气为藏化,右间气为明化,所以天气急迫而政令切厉;地气表现为苦化,左间气为柔化,右间气为动化,所以地气明朗而令势暴烈。阳气独专其令,炎暑盛行,万物干燥而坚硬,淳和之风得以治理,风与燥横逆运行,流布于气交之中。多阳少阴,云趋雨府,湿化得以敷布。燥极而生泽,蛰伏的虫子出现,流水不结冰。金火合德,上应太白星(金星)和荧惑星(火星)。其谷色白丹,间谷由大运决定。其耗损在于白甲类和品羽类生物。所以说,故化、寒化、胜复之气相同,邪气化的程度也如此。燥化四,清化四,热化二,这是正化之数。
岁物适宜的情况是:介虫安静,羽虫繁育,这是地气所制约的结果,介虫耗损,寒毒不生。因此清热之气,持守于气交之中。清气先至且强劲,毛虫乃死;热气后至且暴烈,介虫遭殃。其发病躁动,民众患病咳嗽、咽喉阻塞,寒热暴发,战栗癃闭。岁半之前,由阳明主事,其化为燥,这是天的政令。岁半之后,由少阴主事,其令为热,这是地的化育。金为天气,火为地气,火能胜金,但遇到太一天符,金气自然平和,不依赖化源,只需安护其运金,不要使其受邪。食用白色和红色的谷物以安其气,食用间气之谷以去除邪气。岁宜用咸、苦、辛味,发汗、清解、疏散。其运同于清,宜多地化。其化在上为苦小温,在中为苦和,在下为咸寒,这是药食适宜的法则。
初之气,从甲申年大寒日巳初开始,到本岁春分日卯初结束,共六十日八十七刻半。主位为太角木,客气为太阴土,中见金运。土金相生,地气迁移,阴气始凝,气始肃杀,水结成冰,寒雨化生。其病为中焦热胀,面目浮肿,嗜睡、鼻塞、鼻衄、打喷嚏、呵欠、呕吐。小便黄赤,甚则淋沥。宜治疗太阴之客,以甘味补之,以苦味泻之,以甘味缓之。岁谷宜白,间谷宜麻。虽有湿化,但不能成为邪气。
二之气,从春分日卯正开始,到小满日丑正结束,共六十余日。主位为少征火,客气为少阳火,中见金运。二火相加,阳气布散,民众舒畅,万物生长繁荣。瘟疫大至,民众易突然死亡。但此年金气平和,虽有厉疾,不至夭折横死。宜治疗少阳之客,以咸味补之,以甘味泻之,以咸味软之(原文缺字,据理补全或保留语境,此处依原文“以咸 之”处理,通常指软坚或类似作用,翻译时保留原意结构)。岁谷宜白,间谷宜豆。虽有火化,但不能成为邪气。
三之气,从小满日寅初开始,到大暑日子初结束,共六十余日。主位为少征火,客气为阳明金,中见金运。岁运天符,金气乃平。天政布行,凉气施行,燥热交合,燥极而生泽。民众患病寒热,宜调治阳明之客,以酸味补之,以辛味泻之,以苦味泄之。岁谷宜白,间谷宜黍。虽有燥化,但不能成为邪气。此气使用清凉之法要避开凉气当令之时,不要触犯司天之凉气。
四之气,自大暑日子正开始,到秋分日戌正结束,共六十余日。主位为太宫土,客气为太阳水,中见金运。金水相生,寒雨降下。病见突然仆倒、战栗、谵语妄言、少气、咽干引饮,以及心痛、痈肿、疮疡、疟疾寒战等病,还有骨痿、便血。宜治疗太阳之客,以苦味补之,以咸味泻之,以苦味坚之,以辛味润之。岁谷宜丹,间谷宜稷。虽有寒化,但不能成为邪气。
五之气,从秋分日亥初开始,到小雪日酉初结束,共六十余日。主位为少商金,客气为厥阴木,中见金运。岁运当位,其气平和。厥阴居之,春令反行,草木生长繁荣,民众平和。宜调治厥阴之客,以辛味补之,以酸味泻之,以甘味缓之。岁谷宜丹,间谷宜稻。虽有风化,但不能成为邪气。
终之气,从小雪日酉正开始,到大寒日未正结束,共六十余日。主位为太羽水,客气为少阴火,中见金运。火能胜金,阳气布散,气候反而温暖,蛰虫出现,流水不结冰,民众安康平和。其病为温病。宜治疗少阴之客,以咸味补之,以甘味泻之,以酸味收之。岁谷宜丹,间谷宜豆。虽有热化,但不能成为邪气。这是六气的常规规律。
治疗的总原则是:平和之气使之平衡,各安其气,必须清静,则邪气自衰,回归其所宗,这是治疗的总体纲要。
Figure of the Yǐyǒu Year's Qi and Luck
Míngyáng Zàojīn (Yang Brightness Dry Metal) governs the Heaven (Sītiān), Shàoyīn Jūnhuǒ (Shaoyin Sovereign Fire) governs the Earth (Zàiquán), and the central movement is Shàoshāng Jīnyùn (Lesser Shang Metal Movement). The year's Metal is insufficient, so the qi transformation operates later than the heavenly timing. The Shàoshāng Metal is insufficient yet transforms in accordance with the Sītiān Míngyáng Zàojīn; this is called Tiānfú (Heavenal符/Conformity). Furthermore, since the Metal movement coincides with the Yǒu branch, it is called Suìhuì (Yearly Meeting). With Heavenal conformity above and Yearly meeting below, the three combine for governance, named Tàiyī Tiānfú (Great One Heavenal Conformity), indicating a year of balanced qi. A year where Metal is balanced is recorded as Shěnpíng (Audited Peace). It gathers without contention, kills without violation, the five transformations are declared bright. Its qi is pure, its nature is rigid, its function is scattering, its transformation is firm and contracting. Its administration is vigorous and austere, its climate is clear and cutting, its command is dry, its category is Metal, its correspondence is Autumn, its grain is Rice, its fruit is Peach, its substance has a hard shell, its insect is Jièchóng (Shell-bearing insects), its animal is Chicken, its color is White, its taste is Pungent, its note is Shāng, its number is Nine. Its objects are hard on the outside; in humans, it corresponds to: its zang organ is Lungs, its orifice is the Nose, it nourishes the Skin and Hair, its disease is Cough. This is the law of transformation.
Regarding the qi of Heaven and Earth: Heavenly qi manifests as Dry transformation, the left interstitial qi is Storage transformation, and the right interstitial qi is Bright transformation; thus, heavenly qi is urgent and its administration is severe. Earthly qi manifests as Bitter transformation, the left interstitial qi is Soft transformation, and the right interstitial qi is Agitated transformation; thus, earthly qi is bright and its command is violent. Yang monopolizes the command, scorching heat prevails, objects become dry and hard, pure wind governs, Wind and Dryness move horizontally, flowing into the intersection of qi. There is much Yang and little Yin, clouds gather at the Rain Mansion, Humid transformation is spread. Extreme Dryness generates Moisture, hibernating insects appear, flowing water does not freeze. Metal and Fire combine their virtue, corresponding above to Bàitái (Venus) and Yínghuò (Mars). The grains are White and Red, the intermediate grains are determined by the Great Movement. The depletion affects Baijiapin (White-shelled) and Yupin (Feathered) creatures. Therefore, it is said that Gùhuà (Old Transformation), Hánhuà (Cold Transformation), and Shèngfù (Overcoming-Rebound) are the same, and the degree of pathogenic transformation is also so. Dry transformation is four, Clear transformation is four, Heat transformation is two; these are the degrees of positive transformation.
The suitability of yearly substances: Jièchóng (Shell-bearing insects) are quiet, Yǔchóng (Feathered insects) breed; this is controlled by Earthly qi, Jièchóng are depleted, Cold toxicity does not arise. Thus, Clear-Heat qi holds sway at the intersection of qi. Clear qi arrives first and is vigorous, causing Máo chóng (Hairy insects) to die; Heat arrives later and is violent, causing Jièchóng to suffer disaster. Onset is restless; people suffer from Cough, throat obstruction, sudden onset of Cold and Heat, tremors, and Luńbì (Dysuria). Before the middle of the year, Míngyáng governs, its transformation is Dry, which is the administration of Heaven. After the middle of the year, Shàoyīn governs, its command is Hot, which is the transformation of Earth. Metal is Heavenly qi, Fire is Earthly qi; Fire can overcome Metal, but encountering Tàiyī Tiānfú, Metal qi naturally balances itself, not relying on the source of transformation. One only needs to stabilize the Metal movement, preventing it from being invaded by pathogens. Eat White and Red grains to stabilize qi, eat intermediate qi grains to dispel pathogens. The year suits Salty, Bitter, and Pungent flavors; induce sweating, clear, and disperse. The movement is similar to Clear, favoring Earthly transformation. The transformation above is slightly warm and bitter, in the middle is harmonious and bitter, below is cold and salty; this is the suitability of medicines and foods.
First Qi period: From the start of Sì hour on Dàhán day of the Jiǎshēn year to the start of Mǎo hour on Chūnfēn day of this year, totaling sixty days and eighty-seven-and-a-half kè. The main position is Tài Jiǎo Wood, the guest qi is Tàiyīn Earth, and the central movement is Metal. Earth generates Metal. Earthly qi shifts, Yin begins to condense, qi becomes austere, water freezes, Cold-Rain transformation occurs. Diseases include mid-jiao heat distension, facial and ocular edema, somnolence, Qiú (nasal congestion), Nǜ (epistaxis), sneezing, yawning, and vomiting. Urine is yellow-red, severe cases present with Lin syndrome. Treat the Tàiyīn guest with Sweet tonification, Bitter purgation, and Sweet moderation. Yearly grain should be White, intermediate grain should be Hemp. Although there is Humid transformation, it cannot become pathogenic.
Second Qi period: From the exact Mǎo hour on Chūnfēn day to the exact Chǒu hour on Xiǎomǎn day, totaling sixty-plus days. The main position is Shào Zhēng Fire, the guest qi is Shàoyáng Fire, and the central movement is Metal. Two Fires add together, Yang spreads, people feel comfortable, objects grow luxuriant. Epidemics arrive greatly, people may die suddenly. However, Metal qi is balanced this year; although there are epidemic diseases, they do not cause premature death. Treat the Shàoyáng guest with Salty tonification, Sweet purgation, and Salty softening. Yearly grain should be White, intermediate grain should be Beans. Although there is Fire transformation, it cannot become pathogenic.
Third Qi period: From the start of Yín hour on Xiǎomǎn day to the start of Zǐ hour on Dàshǔ day, totaling sixty-plus days. The main position is Shào Zhēng Fire, the guest qi is Míngyáng Metal, and the central movement is Metal. The year's movement conforms to Heavenal符, Metal qi balances. Heavenly administration spreads, Coolness moves, Dryness and Heat intersect, extreme Dryness generates Moisture. People suffer from Cold and Heat alternating. Treat the Míngyáng guest with Sour tonification, Pungent purgation, and Bitter drainage. Yearly grain should be White, intermediate grain should be Millet. Although there is Dry transformation, it cannot become pathogenic. In this period, use Cool methods avoiding times when Cool qi dominates; do not violate the cooling qi of the governing authority.
Fourth Qi period: From the exact Zǐ hour on Dàshǔ day to the exact Xū hour on Qiūfēn day, totaling sixty-plus days. The main position is Tài Gōng Earth, the guest qi is Tàiyáng Water, and the central movement is Metal. Metal generates Water. Cold rain descends. Diseases include sudden collapse, tremors, delirium, shortness of breath, dry throat with desire to drink, as well as Heart pain, Carbuncles, Sores, Malaria chills, Bone emaciation, and Blood in stool. Treat the Tàiyáng guest with Bitter tonification, Salty purgation, Bitter firming, and Pungent moistening. Yearly grain should be Red, intermediate grain should set aside Ji (Broomcorn millet). Although there is Cold transformation, it cannot become pathogenic.
Fifth Qi period: From the start of Hài hour on Qiūfēn day to the start of Yǒu hour on Xiǎoxuě day, totaling sixty-plus days. The main position is Shào Shāng Metal, the guest qi is Juéyīn Wood, and the central movement is Metal. The year's movement is in place, its qi is balanced. Juéyīn resides here, Spring commands reverse, grasses and trees grow luxuriant, people are harmonious. Treat the Juéyīn guest with Pungent tonification, Sour purgation, and Sweet moderation. Yearly grain should be Red, intermediate grain should be Rice. Although there is Wind transformation, it cannot become pathogenic.
Sixth Qi period (Final Qi): From the exact Yǒu hour on Xiǎoxuě day to the exact Wèi hour on Dàhán day, totaling sixty-plus days. The main position is Tài Yǔ Water, the guest qi is Shàoyīn Fire, and the central movement is Metal. Fire overcomes Metal, Yang qi spreads, the climate reverses to warmth, hibernating insects appear, flowing water does not freeze, people are healthy and peaceful. Their disease is Warmth disease. Treat the Shàoyīn guest with Salty tonification, Sweet purgation, and Sour astringency. Yearly grain should be Red, intermediate grain should be Beans. Although there is Heat transformation, it cannot become pathogenic. This is the normal pattern of the Six Qi.
The general principle of treatment: For balanced qi, bring it to equilibrium; let each qi rest in its place. Must be clear and tranquil, then pathogenic qi will naturally decline and return to its origin. This is the general framework of treatment.
