大言阴与阳，小言夫与妇，阴日阴时则当刺阴干，阳日阳时则当刺阳干，故阴阳者气血也。
阴日血先气后，阳日气先血后。经云∶荣行脉中，卫行脉外。故阴日虽遇阳时，刺阴干者何
也？盖阴日血先行引气，后随血入脉中而行，此为妇有气，夫往从之者，故阴干是也。故阳
日虽遇阴时，刺阳干者何也？盖阳日气先行引血，后随气流注在脉外而行，此为夫有气，妇
往从之者，故阳干是也，如斯之论，此之谓也。
经云∶其气始从中焦注手太阴阳明，阳明注足阳明太阴；太阴注手少阴太阳，太阳注足太阳
太阴；少阴注手心主少阳，少阳注足少阳厥阴；厥阴注还于手太阴。如环无端，周流不息，
昼夜行流，与天同度。此法如气血所王之经络，于一经中井荥俞经合，迎随而补泻之。亦用
东方实而西方虚，泻南方而补北方是也。
杂忌法有数端。经云∶恶于针石者，不可与言于至巧；气血羸劣者，不可刺；久病笃危者，
不可刺；大寒大热、大风大雨、大饥大饱、大醉大劳，皆不可刺。然大寒无刺，令病患于无风
暖室中，啜以粥食，饮以醪酪，令病患无畏寒气，候气血调匀，然后可刺。如此刺之，无疾
不愈。余皆仿此而行之。经云∶无刺漉漉之汗，无刺混混之脉，无刺 之热，此之谓也。

大道理讲的是阴与阳，小道理讲的是夫与妇。在阴日、阴时应当刺取阴干（天干中的阴干），在阳日、阳时应当刺取阳干（天干中的阳干），所以阴阳就是指气血。
阴日血先动而气后随，阳日气先动而血后随。《内经》说：营气（荣气）行于脉中，卫气行于脉外。那么为什么阴日虽然遇到阳时，却仍刺取阴干呢？这是因为在阴日，血先行以引导气，随后气跟随血进入脉中运行，这就像妇人拥有气（此处指代某种主导或依附关系，原文比喻为“妇有气”），丈夫前往随从她一样，所以称为阴干。那么为什么阳日虽然遇到阴时，却仍刺取阳干呢？这是因为在阳日，气先行以引导血，随后血跟随气流注于脉外运行，这就像丈夫拥有气，妇人前往随从他一样，所以称为阳干。像这样的论述，说的就是这个道理。
《内经》说：经气开始从中焦注入手太阴肺经和手阳明大肠经，手阳明大肠经注入足阳明胃经和足太阴脾经；足太阴脾经注入手少阴心经和手太阳小肠经，手太阳小肠经注入足太阳膀胱经和足少阴肾经；足少阴肾经注入手厥阴心包经和手少阳三焦经，手少阳三焦经注入足少阳胆经和足厥阴肝经；足厥阴肝经又回流注入手太阴肺经。如此循环无端，周流不息，昼夜运行，与天道运行度数相同。这种方法如同气血所王（旺盛）的经络，在一经之中，根据井、荥、俞、经、合五输穴的位置，采用迎随补泻法进行调理。这也运用了“东方实而西方虚，泻南方而补北方”的治疗原则。
杂项禁忌方法有好几方面。《内经》说：厌恶针石治疗的人，不可以与他谈论高深的医术；气血虚弱衰败的人，不可针刺；久病危重的人，不可针刺；在大寒、大热、大风、大雨、大饥、大饱、大醉、大劳的情况下，都不可针刺。然而遇到大寒天气时不要针刺，应让患者在无风的温暖室内，喝粥进食，饮用酒酪，使患者不畏惧寒气，等到气血调和均匀后，然后才可以针刺。这样针刺，没有治不好的疾病。其余情况都仿照此法施行。《内经》说：不要在汗出淋漓不止时针刺，不要在脉象浑浊混乱时针刺，不要在发热剧烈时针刺，说的就是这个意思。
《内经》说：太一神日游历，从冬至日开始，首先居住在叶蛰宫。按照该宫的序数所在，每天迁移一处，到第九天又回到第一处。经常这样不停止，周而复始，这就是太一神日游历的方法。其主旨非常明确，没有其他隐晦之处。然而行医施针的人，没有人知道，即使有人知道，也秘而不传，致使圣人的法则，很少在世间施行，实在令人叹息。我虽然不是专业的医家，但平时曾留心医学，听闻并透彻了解其中的详情。知道了却不陈述，难道是仁爱的表现吗？于是凭借我浅陋的见解，将每一节气太一神所值之日，编排整理成图。该图如目录所示，进入某一节气得主之日，从该宫至所在之处，从一数到九，每天迁移一宫，到第九天又返回第一宫。周而复始，依此顺序施行。计算每宫各得五日，九宫合计则一个节气的日子全部具备。现在一条条依次列出，详细记载在每一宫之内，使观看者面对图表，就能立刻看到每一节气太一神所值之日在哪个宫内，从而知道人体所忌讳的部位，希望行医施针的人，知道并避开这些部位，使人们不触犯太一神的凶煞，这是我的本意。我确实不是为了沽名钓誉，只是因年事已高，担心死后圣人的法则会在世间湮没，所以编写此图，阐明其主旨，请工匠刻石流传使其不朽，贵在能够顺应时势与之同行，阅读者不要认为这是自我炫耀。曾人走丙子岁上元日，平水闭邪叟述。
Grand principles discuss Yin and Yang, while minor principles discuss husband and wife. On Yin days and during Yin hours, one should puncture the Yin Heavenly Stems; on Yang days and during Yang hours, one should puncture the Yang Heavenly Stems. Therefore, Yin and Yang refer to Qi (Vital Energy) and Blood.
On Yin days, Blood moves first and Qi follows later; on Yang days, Qi moves first and Blood follows later. The Classic states: Ying-Qi (Nutritive Qi) circulates within the vessels, while Wei-Qi (Defensive Qi) circulates outside the vessels. So why, on a Yin day even if encountering a Yang hour, does one puncture the Yin Stem? This is because on a Yin day, Blood moves first to guide Qi, and subsequently Qi enters the vessels following the Blood. This is likened to a wife possessing Qi, with the husband coming to follow her; thus it is called the Yin Stem. So why, on a Yang day even if encountering a Yin hour, does one puncture the Yang Stem? This is because on a Yang day, Qi moves first to guide Blood, and subsequently Blood flows outside the vessels following the Qi. This is likened to a husband possessing Qi, with the wife coming to follow him; thus it is called the Yang Stem. Such discussions are what this refers to.
The Classic states: The Qi begins from the Middle Jiao (Middle Burner) and pours into the Hand-Taiyin Lung Meridian and Hand-Yangming Large Intestine Meridian; the Hand-Yangming Large Intestine Meridian pours into the Foot-Yangming Stomach Meridian and Foot-Taiyin Spleen Meridian; the Foot-Taiyin Spleen Meridian pours into the Hand-Shaoyin Heart Meridian and Hand-Taiyang Small Intestine Meridian; the Hand-Taiyang Small Intestine Meridian pours into the Foot-Taiyang Bladder Meridian and Foot-Shaoyin Kidney Meridian; the Foot-Shaoyin Kidney Meridian pours into the Hand-Jueyin Pericardium Meridian and Hand-Shaoyang Sanjiao Meridian; the Hand-Shaoyang Sanjiao Meridian pours into the Foot-Shaoyang Gallbladder Meridian and Foot-Jueyin Liver Meridian; the Foot-Jueyin Liver Meridian returns to pour into the Hand-Taiyin Lung Meridian. Like a ring without end, circulating ceaselessly, moving day and night in accordance with the celestial degrees. This method applies to the meridians where Qi and Blood are prosperous; within a single meridian, utilizing the Well, Ying-Spring, Shu-Stream, Jing-River, and He-Sea acupoints, one employs the Ying-Sui (Following and Opposing) tonification and sedation techniques. This also employs the principle of "East is excess and West is deficient, sedate the South and tonify the North."
There are several categories of miscellaneous contraindications. The Classic states: Those who dislike needle and stone therapy cannot be spoken to regarding profound skills; those with weak and inferior Qi and Blood cannot be punctured; those with chronic diseases in a critical state cannot be punctured; under conditions of extreme cold, extreme heat, strong wind, heavy rain, severe hunger, overeating, drunkenness, or excessive labor, puncture must not be performed. However, in cases of extreme cold, do not puncture immediately; instead, let the patient reside in a warm room free from drafts, consume porridge, and drink fermented milk or wine, ensuring the patient fears no cold air. Wait until the Qi and Blood are harmonious and balanced before puncturing. By puncturing in this manner, no disease will remain uncured. All other situations should be handled by analogy. The Classic states: Do not puncture when sweat is dripping profusely, do not puncture when the pulse is chaotic and turbid, do not puncture when there is high fever; this is what is meant.
The Classic states: Taiyi (the Supreme One deity/spirit) travels daily. Starting on the Winter Solstice day, it resides first in the Yezhe Palace. Following the numerical sequence of its palace, it shifts one location each day, returning to the first after nine days. It continues endlessly in this cycle, revolving repeatedly. This is the method of Taiyi's daily travel. Its purport is very clear, with nothing hidden. Yet, practitioners of acupuncture know nothing of this; even if some know, they keep it secret and do not transmit it, causing the methods of the Sages to rarely be practiced in the world, which is truly lamentable. Although I am not a professional physician, I have previously paid attention to medicine and have heard and thoroughly understood the details. Is it benevolent to know but not recount? Thus, relying on my shallow insight, I have compiled the days where Taiyi resides for each section/term into a diagram. The diagram serves as a guide: upon entering a term and obtaining its master day, starting from its palace to its current location, counting from one to nine, shifting one palace per day, and returning to one after nine. Revolving repeatedly, proceeding in this order. Calculating that each palace obtains five days, multiplying by nine covers all days of a term completely. Now listed item by item, detailed within each palace, so that viewers facing the chart can immediately see which palace contains the day where Taiyi resides for each term, thereby knowing the forbidden areas of the human body. It is hoped that practitioners will know and avoid these areas, preventing people from offending the ominous influence of Taiyi. This is my original intention. I certainly do not seek fame. Due to my advanced age and frailty, fearing that after my death the methods of the Sages will vanish from the world, I compiled this diagram to elucidate its purport, commissioned craftsmen to carve it on stone for immortality, valuing its ability to adapt with the times. Readers, do not consider this as self-aggrandizement. Zeng Renzou, on the First Day of the First Month in the Bingzi Year, written by Bixie Sou of Pingshui.
