人身气血无暂息。动静周流在呼吸。呼行三寸吸亦然。一息定行六寸脉。二百七十息数
来。
脉行六十七丈五。四度周身尚余刻。更将余刻为君明。四十五息二丈七。昼夜循还息几何。
一万三千兼五百。脉行八百一十丈。度行五十周身毕。此是平人脉气歌。迟寒数热难同则。
阳日阳时气在前。血在后兮脉在边。阴日阴时血在前。气在后兮脉归原。阳日阳时针左
转。先取阳经府病看。阴日阴时针右转。行属阴经藏病痊。

天一生水地六成。地二生火天七成。天三生木地八成。地四生金天九成。天五生土地十
成。
此是河图五行生成之数。一三五七九者奇也。属之天。二四六八十者偶也。属之地。一
二三
生成也。如父母生子。头生男女第行曰一。故曰一六也。第二胎生男女第行曰二。是二七生
火。余皆如此。曰生者。生如父之资始。曰成者。如母之胎育也。

胆属甲木，肝属乙木，小肠属丙火，心属丁火，胃属戊土，脾属己土。大肠属庚金，肺属辛金，膀胱属壬水，肾属癸水。三焦经也寄属于壬水，心包络同样归属于癸水。
（将天干加在寅时之上）
甲日或己日，以丙时为首；乙日或庚日，以戊时为头；丙日或辛日，从庚时起；丁日或壬日，顺行求取壬寅时；戊日或癸日，定时为甲寅时。六十甲子配时之法，辅助医家诊疗。
人体气血没有片刻停息，动静循环依赖于呼吸。呼气时脉气运行三寸，吸气时也运行三寸。一呼一吸定行六寸脉。二百七十息之数到来，脉气运行六十七丈五尺。四度周流全身尚有余刻。再将余刻为您阐明：四十五息行二丈七尺。昼夜循环往复，呼吸几何？一万三千五百息，脉行八百一十丈。度量五十周全身完毕。这是正常人脉气的歌诀。迟脉主寒证，数脉主热证，难以用同一标准衡量。
阳日阳时，气在前，血在后，脉在边。阴日阴时，血在前，气在后，脉归原。阳日阳时针刺向左转，先取阳经治疗腑病。阴日阴时针刺向右转，行于阴经使脏病痊愈。
（阴不超过阳，阳不超过阴）
天一生水，地六成之。地二生火，天七成之。天三生木，地八成之。地四生金，天九成之。天五生土，地十成之。
这是河图五行生成之数。一、三、五、七、九是奇数，属于天。二、四、六、八、十是偶数，属于地。一二三是生成之数。如同父母生子，头胎生男女排行第一曰一，所以说一六。第二胎生男女排行第二曰二，所以二七生火。其余都如此。所谓“生”，如父亲之资始；所谓“成”，如母亲之胎育。

The Gallbladder corresponds to Jia Wood, the Liver to Yi Wood, the Small Intestine to Bing Fire, the Heart to Ding Fire, the Stomach to Wu Earth, and the Spleen to Ji Earth. The Large Intestine corresponds to Geng Metal, the Lung to Xin Metal, the Bladder to Ren Water, and the Kidney to Gui Water. The Sanjiao (Triple Burner) is also entrusted to Ren Water, and the Pericardium similarly belongs to Gui Water.
(Placing Heavenly Stems upon Yin hour)
On days of Jia or Ji, the cycle begins with Bing hour; on days of Yi or Geng, it starts with Wu hour; on days of Bing or Xin, it rises from Geng hour; on days of Ding or Ren, seek sequentially starting from Ren-Yin hour; on days of Wu or Gui, the fixed time is Jia-Yin hour. This method of pairing sixty Jiazi cycles with hours assists medical practitioners.
Human Qi and Blood do not rest for a moment; their dynamic circulation depends on respiration. During exhalation, pulse Qi moves three cun; during inhalation, it also moves three cun. In one complete breath (one Xi), the pulse moves six cun. Upon reaching two hundred and seventy breaths, the pulse has traveled sixty-seven zhang and five chi. After circulating the body four times, there remains a fraction of time. Let me clarify this remainder: in forty-five breaths, it travels two zhang and seven chi. How many breaths are required for day and night circulation? Ten thousand three hundred and fifty breaths allow the pulse to travel eight hundred and ten zhang. Completing fifty circuits through the body marks the end. This is the verse describing the pulse Qi of a healthy person. A slow pulse indicates Cold syndromes, while a rapid pulse indicates Heat syndromes; they cannot be judged by the same standard.
On Yang days and Yang hours, Qi is in front, Blood is behind, and the pulse is at the periphery. On Yin days and Yin hours, Blood is in front, Qi is behind, and the pulse returns to its origin. On Yang days and Yang hours, needle rotation is counter-clockwise (to the left); first select Yang meridians to treat Fu organ diseases. On Yin days and Yin hours, needle rotation is clockwise (to the right); treating Yin meridians cures Zang organ diseases.
(Yin does not exceed Yang, Yang does not exceed Yin)
Heaven One generates Water, Earth Six completes it. Earth Two generates Fire, Heaven Seven completes it. Heaven Three generates Wood, Earth Eight completes it. Earth Four generates Metal, Heaven Nine completes it. Heaven Five generates Earth, Earth Ten completes it.
These are the generating and completing numbers of the Five Elements in Hetu (River Map). One, three, five, seven, nine are odd numbers, belonging to Heaven. Two, four, six, eight, ten are even numbers, belonging to Earth. One, two, three represent generation. It is like parents having children: the first child, whether male or female, ranks first as 'One', hence "One-Six". The second child, whether male or female, ranks second as 'Two', hence "Two-Seven generates Fire". The rest follow this pattern. "Generating" refers to the father's initiating power; "Completing" refers to the mother's nurturing gestation.
