是必助其阳火,令防御其寒,从气之异同,而气味之少多可制也。同太阳之寒者,以气味之热而制化之,同
太阴之湿者,以气味之燥而制化之,异乎寒湿,而宜寒湿之气味者,宜少用之,同乎寒湿,
而宜热燥之气味者,宜多用之,寒热温凉,不可太过,故用凉远凉,有如上文所云也。

因此必须扶助其阳火,使其能够防御寒气,根据气运的异同,来调节药味的多少以进行制化。与太阳寒水之气相同的,用气味热性的药物来制化它;与太阴湿土之气相同的,用气味燥性的药物来制化它;不同于寒湿之气,而适宜用寒湿气味的,应当少用;与寒湿之气相同,而适宜用热燥气味的,应当多用。寒、热、温、凉的使用不可太过,所以使用凉性药物要避开凉气主令之时,就像上文所说的那样。
黄帝说:好。少阴君火司天的政令是怎样的?岐伯回答说:这是子年和午年的纪年。少阴君火在上(司天),太角(木运太过)在中(中运),阳明燥金在下(在泉)。逢壬子年和壬午年,风气大行,万物生化之声如鸣响、纷乱、开启、裂开,若发生异常变化,则表现为狂风震动、摧枯拉朽般的破坏,人体易患四肢胀满的病证。这是木克土所致。运气序列为:太角、少征、太宫、少商、太羽。
子年和午年归属于少阴君火司天,黄帝询问少阴之政,所以说这是子午之纪。少阴君火在上,太角木运在中,阳明燥金在下,当逢壬子、壬午之年,其风气的运行、生化及异常变化,与太阳、少阳之年遇到太角木运时相同,其病症均为四肢胀满,这是因为木气克制了土气。太角、少征、太宫、少商、太羽的运气次序,与太阳之年相同,解释也与此相同。
少阴君火在上,太征(火运太过)在中,阳明燥金在下,逢戊子年为天符,戊午年为太乙天符。其运行为炎暑,生化表现为温暖、明亮、郁蒸、闷热,若发生异常变化,则表现为炎热猛烈、沸腾翻滚,人体易患上部热血妄行、出血的病证。运气序列为:太征、少宫、太商、少羽、少角。
承接太角的论述,进而谈论太征。少阴君火在上,太征火运在中,阳明燥金在下,当逢戊子、戊午之年。戊为火运,子为少阴君火,岁运与司天之气相合,所以称为“戊子天符”。戊为火运,午为少阴君火,且地支午又属于火,岁运与岁支相会,又符合天符的条件,所以称为“戊午太乙天符”。其运化、生化、异常变化及病症,与太阳、少阳之年遇到太征火运时相同,运气序列太征、少宫、太商、少羽、少角,也与太阳、少阳之年相同。
少阴君火在上,太宫(土运太过)在中,阳明燥金在下,逢甲子年和甲午年。其运行为阴雨,生化表现为柔和顺遂、适时降雨,若发生异常变化,则表现为雷霆震惊、狂风暴雨,人体易患腹部胀满、身体沉重的病证。运气序列为:太宫、少商、太羽、太角、少征。
承接太征的论述,进而谈论太宫。少阴君火在上,太宫土运在中,阳明燥金在下,当逢甲子、甲午之年,其运化、生化、异常变化及病症,与太阳、少阳之年遇到太宫土运时相同,运气序列太宫、少商、太羽、太角、少征,也与太阳之年相同。
少阴君火在上,太商(金运太过)在中,阳明燥金在下,逢庚子年和庚午年,同于正商金运。其运行为凉爽劲急,生化表现为雾露萧瑟,若发生异常变化,则表现为肃杀凋零,人体易患下部清冷泄利的病证。运气序列为:太商、少羽、太角、太征、少宫。
承接太宫的论述,进而谈论太商。少阴君火在上,太商金运在中,阳明燥金在下,当逢庚子、庚午之年,太商主运,金气旺盛。但上临君火,金气不过分亢盛,所以同于正商金运。其运化、生化、异常变化,与太阳、少阳之年遇到太商金运时相同。其病症为下部清冷,这是金寒导致的病证。运气序列太商、少羽、少角、太征、少宫,也与太阳、少阳之年相同。
少阴君火在上,太羽(水运太过)在中,阳明燥金在下,逢丙子年为岁会,丙午年。其运行为寒冷,生化表现为凝结凄惨、凛冽刺骨,若发生异常变化,则表现为冰雪霜雹,人体易患下部寒冷的病证。运气序列为:太羽、太角、少征、太宫、少商。
承接太商的论述,进而谈论太羽。少阴君火在上,太羽水运在中,阳明燥金在下,当逢丙子、丙午之年。丙为水运,水运临于子位,这就是岁会。其运化、生化、异常变化及病症,与太阳、少阳之年遇到太羽水运时相同,运气序列太羽、太角、少征、太宫、少商,也与太阳、少阳之年相同。
凡是这些少阴君火司天的政令,气化运行先于天时而至。地气肃杀,天气明朗,寒气与暑气交争,热气叠加燥气。云气奔驰至雨府,湿气得以施行,适时雨水降落。金气与火气共同施德,在天象上对应荧惑星(火星)和太白星(金星)。其政令清明,其命令急切。对应的谷物是红色(丹)和白色(白)的。水、火、寒、热之气,在气交之中持衡,从而成为疾病发生的起始。热病产生于上部,清冷病产生于下部,寒热相互侵犯并在中部争斗,民众患病咳嗽气喘、吐血衄血、大便下血、鼻塞喷嚏、眼睛发红生疮疡、寒厥之气入胃、心痛腰痛、腹部胀大、咽喉干燥、水肿发生在头部。
子午年是少阴君火司天的政令。凡是壬子、壬午,戊子、戊午,甲子、甲午,庚子、庚午,丙子、丙午年,都是主运过盛的年份,所以气化运行先于天时而至。金气在泉,所以地气肃杀;火气司天,所以天气明朗。少阴火热在上,初之气有寒气(太阳寒水),这是寒交暑的表现。阳明燥金在下,五之气有寒气(少阳相火),这是热加燥的表现。四之气有寒气(太阴湿土),所以又说云驰雨府,湿气施行,适时雨水降落。在泉的是金,司天的是火,所以金火合德,在天象上对应荧惑和太白二星。天气明朗,所以政令清明;地气肃杀,所以命令急切。对应的谷物是丹色和白色的,这是火和金对应的谷物。少阴火热司天,初之气的寒气(太阳寒水),三之气的寒气(少阴君火),这是水火寒热在气交之候持衡,成为受病的开始。火气司天,所以热病生于上部;金气在泉,所以清冷病生于下部。寒交暑,热加燥,所以寒热相互侵犯并在中部争斗。民众患病咳嗽气喘、血溢血泄、鼽嚏、目赤疮疡,这是燥热病;寒厥入胃、心痛腰痛、腹大嗌干肿上,这是寒湿病。
初之气,地气迁移,燥气将去,寒气开始,蛰伏的虫子重新藏匿,水结成冰,霜再次降落,风气到来,阳气被郁遏,民众反而需要严密包裹,关节拘紧固着,腰部疼痛,炎暑将要兴起,内外都会发生疮疡。
初之气的客气是太阳寒水。地气迁移,是从阳明燥金迁往太阳寒水,去掉阳明之燥,开始太阳之寒,所以燥气将去,寒气始生。蛰,指冬眠的虫类。冬季虫子已经蛰伏藏匿,至此寒气加临,则蛰虫重新藏匿,水结成冰,霜再次降落。初之气的主气是厥阴风木,所以风气到来。风气到来,又有太阳寒气,导致阳气被郁遏。阳气被郁遏,则民众反而需要严密包裹,出现关节拘紧固着、腰部疼痛的症状,这是寒湿病。二之气的主气是少阴君火,气与司天之气相合,所以起初寒气始生,继则炎暑将要兴起。炎暑兴起,则内外发生疮疡。
二之气,阳气布散,风气流行,春气端正,万物应时繁荣,寒气按时到来,民众平和。若寒气不能按时到来,主时的热气相交,则民众患病淋浊、眼睛闭合难睁或发红,气郁结于上部而发热。
二之气的客气是厥阴风木。风属于阳气,所以阳气布散,风气流行。阳气布散、风气流行,则春气端正。春气端正,则万物应时繁荣。虽然春气端正、万物繁荣,但天气仍然寒冷,所以寒气按时到来,民众就平和。如果寒气不能按时到来,主时的热气与之相交,则会出现淋浊、目瞑目赤等症状,气郁结于上部而发热。凡此皆属少阴火热之病。
三之气,天政布散,大火运行,各类生物繁茂鲜艳,寒气不时到来,民众患病气逆心痛,寒热交替发作,咳嗽气喘,眼睛发红。
三之气的客气是少阴君火,气与司天相合,所以天政布散,大火运行。火气生长万物而光明,所以各类生物繁茂鲜艳。三之气本应热,若寒气不时到来,则民众患病气逆心痛,这是由于寒邪所致。而且寒热交替发作,咳嗽气喘,眼睛发红,这是寒热交争的表现。
四之气,湿热之气到来,大雨时常流行,寒热之气互相交替,民众患病寒热往来,咽喉干燥,黄疸,鼻塞鼻出血,痰饮发作。
四之气的客气是太阴湿土,四之气的主气是少阳相火,所以湿热之气到来。湿气胜,所以大雨时常流行。大雨流行,气兼有湿热,所以寒热互相交替。民众患病寒热往来,咽喉干燥,黄疸,鼻塞鼻出血,痰饮发作,这是湿热病。
五之气,畏火(少阳相火)临御,暑气反而到来,阳气得以化育,万物生长繁荣,民众安康,若温热太过,则患温病。
五之气的客气是少阳相火,所以畏火临御。畏火临御,所以暑气反而到来。暑气到来则阳气化热,所以阳气得以化育。阳气化育,则万物生长繁荣。五之气对应九月十月,少阳寒气加临,所以天气温和,万物生荣。如果这样,民众就安康。如果温热太过,则患温病。
终之气,燥令施行,余火内格,肿胀于上部,咳嗽气喘,严重则吐血,寒气多次举发,则雾气朦胧,病生在皮肤腠理,内部合于胁部,下部连及小腹而产生中寒病,地气即将更替。
“肿”字当作“冲”。终之气的客气是阳明燥金,所以燥令施行。上承五之气的客气(少阳相火),属于少阳,所以余火内格而冲于上,导致咳嗽气喘,严重则吐血。终之气的主气是太阳寒水,所以寒气多次举发。寒气多次举发,则天气昏蒙,如雾之遮蔽。太阳之气行于全身,所以病生在皮肤腠理,从枢机胁部向下挟持膀胱,所以内部合于胁部,下部连及小腹,产生中寒病。阳明寒气加临,不病阳明之燥,而病太阳之寒,因为阳明之气又主司地,司地之气,到了终气就将更替。
必须抑制过盛的运气,资助岁胜之气,折减郁发之气,先取化源,不要让暴烈之气过度而产生疾病。食用当年当令的谷物以保全真气,食用间谷以辟避虚邪。岁运宜用咸味药物来平抑并调理上部,严重时可用苦味药物发散,用酸味药物收敛并安顿下部,严重时可用苦味药物泄降。斟酌气运的同异来决定药味的多少。与天气相同的,用寒凉性质的药物制化;与地气相同的,用温热性质的药物制化。使用热性药物要避开热气主令之时,使用凉性药物要避开凉气主令之时,使用温性药物要避开温气主令之时,使用寒性药物要避开寒气主令之时,饮食调养也应遵循此法。如果有假象则相反,这就是规律。违背这个规律,疾病就会发作。
运气太过就要抑制它,因为运气太过,所以要抑制运气。运气不及就要资助它,所以必须资助岁胜之气。“岁胜”,即岁运所当胜之气。当胜而不胜,所以必须资助。郁结是发散的根基,所以要折减其郁发,应当先取化源来资助它,不要让暴疟(暴烈之气)太过而产生疾病。食用丹色和白色的当年谷物,以保全真气;食用左右间的谷物,以辟避虚邪。岁运当君火在上,宜食咸味来平抑并调理上部。火气过甚,则食火味之苦味以发散之。金气在下,其气主收,宜食酸味以收敛并安顿下部。燥气过甚,则食苦味之寒性以泄降之。苦为火味,其性则寒,说明它能发散也能泄降。适,即斟酌之意。斟酌气运的同异,来决定药味的多少以制化它。同天热火之气者,用寒清气味制化它;同地清凉之气者,用温热气味制化它。更应当用热远热,用凉远凉,从而得到平衡。
黄帝说:好。厥阴风木司天的政令是怎样的?岐伯回答说:这是巳年和亥年的纪年。厥阴风木在下,少角(木运不及)在中,少阳相火在上。清热胜复相同,同于正角木运。丁巳年为天符,丁亥年为天符。其运行为风气,伴有清气和热气。运气序列为:少角、太征、少宫、太商、少羽。
巳年和亥年归属于厥阴风木司天,黄帝询问厥阴之政,所以说这是巳亥之纪。厥阴风木在下(在泉),少角木运不及在中(中运),少阳相火在上(司天)。木运不及,开始时金之清气胜,随后火之热气复。胜与复,共同主宰一年的气运。少角木运得到司天之助,所以同于正角木运。丁为木运,巳亥风木司天,岁运上合司天,所以称为“丁巳天符”、“丁亥天符”。丁巳、丁亥天符,其运行为风,是角木之运。清者是金之胜,热者是火之复。因为是少角之运,所以首先言少角,最后言少羽,与上文阳明、太阴篇相同。
厥阴风木在下,少征(火运不及)在中,少阳相火在上,寒雨胜复相同。逢癸巳年和癸亥年。其运行为热气,伴有寒气和雨气。运气序列为:少征、太宫、少商、太羽、太角。
承接少角三次论述,进而谈论少征。癸为火运不及,所以上为厥阴,中为少征,下为少阳。火运不及,开始时水之寒气胜,随后土之雨气复。胜与复,共同主宰一年的气运。岁运当癸巳、癸亥年,其运行为热,是征火之运。寒是水之胜,雨是土之复。少征、太宫、少商、太羽、太角,与上文阳明、太阴篇相同。
厥阴风木在下,少宫(土运不及)在中,少阳相火在上,风清胜复相同,同于正角木运。逢己巳年和己亥年。其运行为雨气,伴有风气和清气。运气序列为:少宫、太商、少羽、少角、太征。
承接少征的论述,进而谈论少宫。己为土运不及,所以上为厥阴,中为少宫,下为少阳。土运不及,开始时木之风气胜,随后金之清气复。胜与复,共同主宰一年的气运。木胜金复,木气虚矣,上得司天之助,所以同于正角木运。岁运当己巳、己亥年,其运行为雨,是宫土之运。风是木之胜,清是金之复。少宫、太商等,也与阳明、太阴篇相同。
厥阴风木在下,少商(金运不及)在中,少阳相火在上,热寒胜复相同,同于正角木运。逢乙巳年和乙亥年。其运行为凉气,伴有热气和寒气。运气序列为:少商、太羽、太角、少征、太宫。
承接少宫的论述,进而谈论少商。乙为金运不及,所以上为厥阴,中为少商,下为少阳。金运不及,开始时火之热气胜,随后水之寒气复。胜与复,共同主宰一年的气运。木气司天,金运不及,所以同于正角木运。岁运当乙巳、乙亥年,其运行为凉,是商金之运。热是火之胜,寒是水之复。少商、太羽等,也与阳明、太阴篇相同。
厥阴风木在下,少羽(水运不及)在中,少阳相火在上,雨风胜复相同。逢辛巳年和辛亥年。其运行为寒气雨气风气。运气序列为:少羽、少角、太征、少宫、太商。
承接少商的论述,进而谈论少羽。辛为水运不及,所以上为厥阴,中为少羽,下为少阳。水运不及,开始时土之雨气胜,随后木之风气复。胜与复,共同主宰一年的气运。岁运当辛巳、辛亥年,其运行为寒,是羽水之运。雨是土之胜,风是木之复。少羽、少角等,也与阳明、太阴篇相同。
凡是这些厥阴风木司天的政令,气化运行后于天时而至。所有同于正岁的年份,气化运行与司天之气同步。天气扰动,地气平和。风气生于高远,炎热随之而来。云气趋向雨府,湿气得以施行。风火同德,在天象上对应岁星(木星)和荧惑星(火星)。其政令扰乱,其命令迅速。对应的谷物是青色(苍)和红色(丹)的。文中提到“间谷言太者”,是指那些耗散的文彩羽毛类和角木品类。风、燥、火、热,胜复交替发作。蛰伏的虫子出来显现,流水不结冰。热病行于下部,风病行于上部,风燥胜复的表现形于中部。
巳亥年是厥阴风木司天的政令。凡是丁巳、丁亥,癸巳、癸亥,己巳、己亥,乙巳、乙亥,辛巳、辛亥年,都是主运不及的年份,所以气化运行后于天时而至。六十岁中,六气司天,气化运行要么先天,要么后天。其中诸岁会之年,则同于正岁。所有同于正岁的年份,气化运行与天时同步,不先不后。厥阴司天,所以天气扰动。“扰”指风动。少阳在泉,所以地气平和。“正”指阳和。风气在天,所以风气生于高远。少阳之气,上合厥阴,所以炎热随之而来。炎热随之而来,则地气上升,成为云雨,所以云趋雨府,湿气施行。司天在泉,风火同德,所以在天象上对应木之岁星,火之荧惑。其政令扰乱,是风政。其命令迅速,是火令。对应的谷物是苍色和丹色的,这是木火之岁谷。厥阴司天,右间气为少阴,左间气为太阳,都主“太”,所以右左间谷中提到“太”字的表示成熟。厥阴司天,其气主“少”,所以文彩的羽毛,角木的品类,都耗散而不繁聚。厥阴司天,风气主事,开始时金之燥气胜,随后火之热气复,所以风燥火热,胜复交替发作。燥胜热复,则蛰虫出来显现,流水不结冰。少阳司地,所以热病行于下部。厥阴在天,所以风病行于上部。风气司天,燥胜火复,所以风燥胜复的表现形于中部。
初之气,寒气开始肃杀,杀气方才到来,民众患病右侧下部寒冷。
初之气的客气是阳明燥金,所以寒气开始肃杀,杀气方才到来。肃杀之气近于寒,所以民众患病右侧下部寒冷。大概初之气的客气,从地气向右迁移,阳明居少阳之右,而在少阳之下,所以叫“右之下”。上文太阳、阳明、少阳、太阴、少阴都言“地气迁”。至此厥阴不言“地气迁”,而说“右之下”,是为了明确地气迁者,是从在泉之位的右边、在泉之位之下迁移,作为客气加临的开始。
二之气,寒气不去,花开如雪,水结成冰,杀气施行化育,霜降落,有名之草上部焦枯,寒雨多次到来,阳气重新化育,民众患病中部热。
“华”同“花”。二之气的客气是太阳寒水,所以寒气不去,仍有花开如雪、水结成冰的现象。“华雪”指像花一样的雪,“水冰”指水上结冰。“杀气”指寒气。寒气施行化育,则霜降落,有名之草上部焦枯。“名草上焦”是由于寒雨多次到来。客气值太阳之寒,主气乃少阴之热,所以阳气重新化育,民众患病中部热。
三之气,天政布散,风气按时兴起,民众患病流泪、耳鸣、抖动、眩晕。
三之气的客气是厥阴风木,气与司天相合,所以天政布散,风气按时兴起。流泪、耳鸣、抖动、眩晕,都是风病。
四之气,湿热之气浓厚,湿热相互迫近,在左侧上方争斗,民众患病黄疸并发生浮肿。
四之气的客气是少阴君火,少阴有暑热之气。如今溽暑而湿热相互迫近,乃是少阳在泉之气,与太阴湿土相争于左侧上方。上文阳明在少阳右之下,则太阴在少阳左之上。民众患病黄疸浮肿,这是湿热病。以上为客气加
Therefore, one must assist the Yang Fire (Yang Huo, 阳火) to enable defense against Cold (Han, 寒), and based on the similarities and differences of the Qi (Qi, 气), the quantity and quality of medicinal flavors can be regulated for transformation. For those identical to Taiyang Cold Water (Taiyang Han Shui, 太阳寒水), transform them with hot-flavored medicines; for those identical to Taiyin Damp Earth (Taiyin Shi Tu, 太阴湿土), transform them with dry-flavored medicines. For those different from Cold and Damp but suitable for cold/damp flavors, use them sparingly; for those identical to Cold and Damp but suitable for hot/dry flavors, use them abundantly. The use of Cold, Heat, Warm, and Cool should not be excessive. Thus, when using Cool medicines, avoid the Cool season, as mentioned above.
The Yellow Emperor said: Excellent. What is the administration of Shaoyin (Shaoyin Junhuo, 少阴君火)? Qibo replied: This refers to the cycles of Zi (Rat) and Wu (Horse) years. With Shaoyin Jun Fire (Shaoyin Junhuo, 少阴君火) at the top (Si Tian, 司天), Tai Jue Wood Excess (Tai Jue Mu Yun, 太角木运) in the middle (Zhong Yun, 中运), and Yangming Dry Metal (Yangming Zaojin, 阳明燥金) at the bottom (Zai Quan, 在泉). In Ren Zi and Ren Wu years, wind prevails greatly; the transformation manifests as sounds like ringing, chaos, opening, and cracking. If abnormal changes occur, they manifest as violent shaking and uprooting destruction. The disease presents as limb distension and fullness. This is due to Wood overcoming Earth. The sequence of Yun (Yun, 运) is: Tai Jue, Shao Zheng, Tai Gong, Shao Shang, Tai Yu.
Zi and Wu years belong to Shaoyin Si Tian. Since the Yellow Emperor asked about Shaoyin's administration, it is called the Zi-Wu cycle. Shaoyin Jun Fire is above, Tai Jue Wood Yun is in the middle, and Yangming Dry Metal is below. In Ren Zi and Ren Wu years, the movement, transformation, and abnormal changes are the same as those in Taiyang and Shaoyang years encountering Tai Jue Wood Yun. The disease is limb distension and fullness, caused by Wood overcoming Earth. The sequence Tai Jue, Shao Zheng, Tai Gong, Shao Shang, Tai Yu is the same as in Taiyang years, and the explanation is also the same.
With Shaoyin Jun Fire above, Tai Zheng Fire Excess (Tai Zheng Huo Yun, 太征火运) in the middle, and Yangming Dry Metal below. Wu Zi year is a Tian Fu (Tian Fu, 天符) year, and Wu Wu year is a Tai Yi Tian Fu (Tai Yi Tian Fu, 太乙天符) year. The movement is hot summer heat; the transformation is warm, bright, stagnant, and sultry. Abnormal changes manifest as fierce heat and boiling. The disease involves upper body hot blood and hemorrhage. The sequence is: Tai Zheng, Shao Gong, Tai Shang, Shao Yu, Shao Jue.
Following the discussion of Tai Jue, we discuss Tai Zheng. Shaoyin Jun Fire is above, Tai Zheng Fire Yun is in the middle, and Yangming Dry Metal is below. In Wu Zi and Wu Wu years. Wu represents Fire Yun. Zi corresponds to Shaoyin Jun Fire. Since the Year Yun matches the Si Tian Qi, it is called "Wu Zi Tian Fu". Wu represents Fire Yun, Wu corresponds to Shaoyin Jun Fire, and the branch Wu also belongs to Fire. The Year Yun meets the Sui Hui (Sui Hui, 岁会) and combines with Tian Fu, so it is called "Wu Wu Tai Yi Tian Fu". Its Yun, transformation, abnormal changes, and diseases are the same as Taiyang and Shaoyang years encountering Tai Zheng Fire Yun. The sequence Tai Zheng, Shao Gong, Tai Shang, Shao Yu, Shao Jue is also the same.
With Shaoyin Jun Fire above, Tai Gong Earth Excess (Tai Gong Tu Yun, 太宫土运) in the middle, and Yangming Dry Metal below. In Jia Zi and Jia Wu years. The movement is rainy; the transformation is soft, compliant, and timely rain. Abnormal changes manifest as thunderous shock and sudden storms. The disease presents as abdominal fullness and heavy body. The sequence is: Tai Gong, Shao Shang, Tai Yu, Tai Jue, Shao Zheng.
Following Tai Zheng, we discuss Tai Gong. Shaoyin Jun Fire is above, Tai Gong Earth Yun is in the middle, and Yangming Dry Metal is below. In Jia Zi and Jia Wu years, its Yun, transformation, abnormal changes, and diseases are the same as Taiyang and Shaoyang years encountering Tai Gong Earth Yun. The sequence Tai Gong, Shao Shang, Tai Yu, Tai Jue, Shao Zheng is also the same.
With Shaoyin Jun Fire above, Tai Shang Metal Excess (Tai Shang Jin Yun, 太商金运) in the middle, and Yangming Dry Metal below. In Geng Zi and Geng Wu years, it is equivalent to Zheng Shang (Zheng Shang, 正商). The movement is cool and crisp; the transformation is misty and dewy with desolation. Abnormal changes manifest as severe killing and withering. The disease presents as lower body clear/cold discharge. The sequence is: Tai Shang, Shao Yu, Tai Jue, Tai Zheng, Shao Gong.
Following Tai Gong, we discuss Tai Shang. Shaoyin Jun Fire is above, Tai Shang Metal Yun is in the middle, and Yangming Dry Metal is below. In Geng Zi and Geng Wu years, Tai Shang governs the Yun, and Metal Qi is strong. However, it is overlain by Jun Fire, so Metal does not become excessively strong, thus equivalent to Zheng Shang. Its Yun, transformation, and abnormal changes are the same as Taiyang and Shaoyang years encountering Tai Shang Metal Yun. The disease is lower body coldness, a condition of Metal Cold. The sequence Tai Shang, Shao Yu, Shao Jue, Tai Zheng, Shao Gong is also the same.
With Shaoyin Jun Fire above, Tai Yu Water Excess (Tai Yu Shui Yun, 太羽水运) in the middle, and Yangming Dry Metal below. Bing Zi year is a Sui Hui (Sui Hui, 岁会) year; Bing Wu year. The movement is cold; the transformation is congealed, miserable, and biting. Abnormal changes manifest as ice, snow, frost, and hail. The disease presents as lower body coldness. The sequence is: Tai Yu, Tai Jue, Shao Zheng, Tai Gong, Shao Shang.
Following Tai Shang, we discuss Tai Yu. Shaoyin Jun Fire is above, Tai Yu Water Yun is in the middle, and Yangming Dry Metal is below. In Bing Zi and Bing Wu years. Bing is Water Yun. Water Yun arrives at Zi position, which is Sui Hui. Its Yun, transformation, abnormal changes, and diseases are the same as Taiyang and Shaoyang years encountering Tai Yu Water Yun. The sequence Tai Yu, Tai Jue, Shao Zheng, Tai Gong, Shao Shang is also the same.
In all these administrations where Shaoyin Jun Fire is Si Tian, the Qi transformation operates prior to the natural time. The Earth Qi is肃 (Su, 肃 - solemn/clear), and the Heaven Qi is bright. Cold intersects with Summer Heat; Heat adds to Dryness. Clouds rush to the Rain Mansion, Dampness transformation proceeds, and timely rain descends. Metal and Fire virtues combine, corresponding in the heavens to Yinghuo (Mars) and Taibai (Venus). The administration is clear, and the command is urgent. The grains are red (Dan, 丹) and white (Bai, 白). Water, Fire, Cold, and Heat Qi hold balance at the Qi intersection, becoming the beginning of disease. Heat diseases arise in the upper part; Clear/Cold diseases arise in the lower part. Cold and Heat invade each other and contend in the middle. People suffer from cough and asthma, hematemesis, epistaxis, diarrhea, nasal congestion, sneezing, red eyes, ulcers, Cold Jue entering the stomach, heart pain, lower back pain, abdominal distension, dry throat, and edema in the head.
Zi and Wu years are Shaoyin Si Tian. All Ren Zi/Ren Wu, Wu Zi/Wu Wu, Jia Zi/Jia Wu, Geng Zi/Geng Wu, Bing Zi/Bing Wu years are years of excess Yun. Thus, Qi transformation operates prior to time. Metal Qi is Zai Quan, so Earth Qi is solemn; Fire Qi is Si Tian, so Heaven Qi is bright. Shaoyin Hot Fire is above; Chu Zhi Qi has Cold Qi (Taiyang Cold Water), which is Cold intersecting Summer Heat. Yangming Dry Metal is below; Wu Zhi Qi has Cold Qi (Shaoyang Ministerial Fire), which is Heat adding to Dryness. Si Zhi Qi has Cold Qi (Taiyin Damp Earth), hence "Clouds rush to Rain Mansion, Dampness proceeds, timely rain descends." Zai Quan is Metal, Si Tian is Fire, so Metal and Fire combine virtue, corresponding to Yinghuo and Taibai stars. Heaven Qi bright means administration is clear; Earth Qi solemn means command is urgent. Grains are Dan and Bai, grains of Fire and Metal. Shaoyin Hot Fire Si Tian, Chu Zhi Cold Qi (Taiyang Cold Water), San Zhi Cold Qi (Shaoyin Jun Fire); this is Water/Fire/Cold/Heat holding balance at Qi intersection, starting disease. Fire Si Tian means Heat disease arises above; Metal Zai Quan means Clear disease arises below. Cold intersects Heat, Heat adds to Dryness, so Cold/Heat contend in the middle. Cough, asthma, bleeding, rhinitis, red eyes/ulcers are Dry-Heat diseases. Cold Jue entering stomach, heart/back pain, abdominal distension, dry throat, head edema are Cold-Damp diseases.
Chu Zhi Qi (First Phase): Earth Qi migrates, Dryness departs, Cold begins. Hibernating insects re-hide, water freezes, frost falls again, Wind arrives. Yang Qi is depressed. People wrap themselves tightly. Joints become stiff and fixed. Waist pain occurs. As Summer Heat approaches, sores and ulcers appear inside and outside.
Chu Zhi Qi Guest Qi is Taiyang Cold Water. Earth Qi migrates from Yangming to Taiyang. Removing Yangming Dryness, starting Taiyang Cold, so Dryness departs, Cold begins. Zhe refers to hibernating insects. Winter insects are hidden; now Cold arrives, so they re-hide, water freezes, frost falls. Chu Zhi Host Qi is Jueyin Wind Wood, so Wind arrives. Wind arrives with Taiyang Cold, causing Yang Qi depression. Depressed Yang Qi makes people wrap tightly, leading to stiff joints and waist pain (Cold-Damp disease). Er Zhi Qi Host Qi is Shaoyin Jun Fire, combining with Si Tian. Initially Cold begins, then Summer Heat rises. Rising Summer Heat causes internal/external sores.
Er Zhi Qi (Second Phase): Yang Qi spreads, Wind flows. Spring Qi is correct. All things flourish. Cold Qi arrives on time. People are harmonious. Disease: stranguria, closed eyes or red eyes, Qi stagnation above causing Heat.
Er Zhi Qi Guest Qi is Jueyin Wind Wood. Wind is Yang Qi, so Yang Qi spreads and Wind flows. Spreading Yang and flowing Wind make Spring Qi correct. Correct Spring Qi makes all things flourish. Although Spring Qi is correct and things flourish, Heaven Qi is still Cold, so Cold Qi arrives on time, and people are harmonious. If Cold Qi does not arrive on time, Host Time Heat interacts, causing stranguria, eye issues, and Qi stagnation/Heat above. These are all Shaoyin Hot Fire diseases.
San Zhi Qi (Third Phase): Heaven Administration spreads, Great Fire moves. All classes flourish and are fresh. Cold Qi arrives occasionally. Disease: Qi Jue, heart pain, alternating Cold/Heat, cough, asthma, red eyes.
San Zhi Qi Guest Qi is Shaoyin Jun Fire, combining with Si Tian. Heaven Administration spreads, Great Fire moves. Fire grows all things brightly, so all flourish. San Zhi Qi should be Hot. If Cold Qi arrives, people get Qi Jue and heart pain due to Cold. Alternating Cold/Heat, cough, asthma, red eyes indicate Cold/Heat contention.
Si Zhi Qi (Fourth Phase): Sultry Heat arrives. Heavy rain often occurs. Cold and Heat alternate. Disease: alternating Cold/Heat, dry throat, jaundice, nasal congestion/epistaxis, fluid retention.
Si Zhi Qi Guest Qi is Taiyin Damp Earth. Si Zhi Host Qi is Shaoyang Ministerial Fire. So Sultry Heat arrives. Dampness wins, so heavy rain occurs. Heavy rain brings Sultry Heat, so Cold/Heat alternate. Disease: alternating Cold/Heat, dry throat, jaundice, nasal congestion/epistaxis, fluid retention. This is Damp-Heat disease.
Wu Zhi Qi (Fifth Phase): Wei Huo (Shaoyang Ministerial Fire) descends. Summer Heat returns. Yang transforms. All things grow and flourish. People are healthy. If Heat is excessive, Warm disease occurs.
Wu Zhi Qi Guest Qi is Shaoyang Ministerial Fire, so Wei Huo descends. Wei Huo descending means Summer Heat returns. Returning Summer Heat means Yang transforms into Heat. Transformed Yang makes all things grow and flourish. Wu Zhi Qi corresponds to Sept/Oct. Shaoyang Cold Qi descends, so weather is mild, and things flourish. Thus people are healthy. If Heat is excessive, Warm disease occurs.
Zhong Zhi Qi (Sixth Phase): Dry Command acts. Residual Fire is internally blocked. Swelling rushes upward. Cough and asthma. Severe cases: hemorrhage. Cold Qi frequently rises. Foggy haze. Disease in skin/collaterals. Internally connects to hypochondrium. Lower connects to lower abdomen causing Middle Cold. Earth Qi is about to change.
"Swelling" should be "Rushing". Zhong Zhi Qi Guest Qi is Yangming Dry Metal, so Dry Command acts. Overlying Wu Zhi Qi (Shaoyang), residual Fire is internally blocked and rushes upward, causing cough, asthma, severe hemorrhage. Zhong Zhi Host Qi is Taiyang Cold Water, so Cold Qi frequently rises. Frequent Cold Qi causes foggy haze. Taiyang Qi runs through the body, so disease starts in skin/collaterals. From pivot/hypochondrium down along Bladder, internally connecting to hypochondrium and lower abdomen, causing Middle Cold. Yangming Cold Qi descends, but disease is Taiyang Cold, not Yangming Dryness, because Yangming Qi governs Di (Earth), and Di Qi changes at Zhong Zhi Qi.
One must restrain the Yun (excessive), aid the Sui Sheng (Year Winning), break the Yu Fa (Stagnant Eruption), first take the Hua Yuan (Source of Transformation), to prevent violent excess from causing disease. Eat Sui Gu (Year Grain) to preserve True Qi. Eat Jian Gu (Interim Grain) to ward off Empty Evil. For the year, use Salty flavor to calm and regulate the Upper. If severe, use Bitter to disperse. Use Sour to collect and settle the Lower. If severe, use Bitter to drain. Adjust the quantity based on Qi similarity/difference. Same as Heaven Qi: use Cold/Cool to transform. Same as Earth Qi: use Warm/Hot to transform. Use Hot far from Hot. Use Cool far from Cool. Use Warm far from Warm. Use Cold far from Cold. Diet should follow this. If there is a false sign, reverse it. This is the Way. Opposite to this, disease arises.
Excess requires restraint. Yun is excessive, so restrain Yun. Deficiency requires aid. Aid Sui Sheng (Year Winning). Sui Sheng is what the Year should overcome. If it doesn't overcome, aid is needed. Yu (Stagnation) is the basis of eruption, so break Yu Fa. First take Hua Yuan to aid. Prevent violent malaria/excess from causing disease. Eat Dan/Bai Sui Gu to preserve True Qi. Eat Left/Right Jian Gu to ward off Empty Evil. Year has Jun Fire Above. Eat Salty to calm/regulate Upper. Fire excessive: eat Bitter (Fire flavor) to disperse. Metal Below, Qi collects. Eat Sour to collect/settle Lower. Dryness excessive: eat Bitter Cold to drain. Bitter is Fire flavor, nature is Cold. It can disperse and drain. Shi means adjust. Adjust Qi similarity/difference to determine flavor quantity. Same as Heaven Fire/Hot: use Cold/Cool. Same as Earth Cool/Cold: use Warm/Hot. Use Hot far from Hot, Cool far from Cool, to achieve balance.
Yellow Emperor said: Excellent. What is the administration of Jueyin? Qibo replied: This is the Si-Hai cycle. Jueyin below, Shao Jue Wood Deficiency (Shao Jue Mu Yun, 少角木运) in middle, Shaoyang above. Qing Re (Clear/Hot) Sheng Fu (Win/Loss) are same. Equivalent to Zheng Jue. Ding Si Tian Fu, Ding Hai Tian Fu. Movement is Wind, Clear, Hot. Sequence: Shao Jue, Tai Zheng, Shao Gong, Tai Shang, Shao Yu.
Si/Hai belong to Jueyin Si Tian. Jueyin is below (Zai Quan), Shao Jue Yun is middle (Zhong Yun), Shaoyang is above (Si Tian). Wood Yun deficiency. Initially Metal Clear Qi wins, then Fire Hot Qi compensates. Sheng/Fu govern the year. Shao Jue Wood Yun gets Si Tian help, so equivalent to Zheng Jue. Ding is Wood Yun. Si/Hai Wind Wood Si Tian. Year Yun matches Si Tian, so Ding Si/Hai Tian Fu. Ding Si/Hai Tian Fu, movement is Wind (Jue Wood Yun). Clear is Metal Win, Hot is Fire Compensate. Shao Jue Yun, so starts with Shao Jue, ends with Shao Yu, same as Yangming/Taiyin above.
Jueyin below, Shao Zheng Fire Deficiency (Shao Zheng Huo Yun, 少征火运) in middle, Shaoyang above. Han Yu (Cold/Rain) Sheng Fu same. Gui Si/Gui Hai years. Movement is Heat, Cold, Rain. Sequence: Shao Zheng, Tai Gong, Shao Shang, Tai Yu, Tai Jue.
Following Shao Jue three times, discuss Shao Zheng. Gui is Fire Yun deficiency. Above Jueyin, Middle Shao Zheng, Below Shaoyang. Fire deficiency: initially Water Cold wins, then Earth Rain compensates. Sheng/Fu govern year. Gui Si/Hai years. Movement is Heat (Zheng Fire Yun). Cold is Water Win, Rain is Earth Compensate. Sequence same as Yangming/Taiyin above.
Jueyin below, Shao Gong Earth Deficiency (Shao Gong Tu Yun, 少宫土运) in middle, Shaoyang above. Feng Qing (Wind/Clear) Sheng Fu same. Equivalent to Zheng Jue. Ji Si/Ji Hai years. Movement is Rain, Wind, Clear. Sequence: Shao Gong, Tai Shang, Shao Yu, Shao Jue, Tai Zheng.
Following Shao Zheng, discuss Shao Gong. Ji is Earth Yun deficiency. Above Jueyin, Middle Shao Gong, Below Shaoyang. Earth deficiency: initially Wood Wind wins, then Metal Clear compensates. Sheng/Fu govern year. Wood wins/Metal compensates, Wood Qi is weak. Gets Si Tian help, so equivalent to Zheng Jue. Ji Si/Hai years. Movement is Rain (Gong Earth Yun). Wind is Wood Win, Clear is Metal Compensate. Sequence same as Yangming/Taiyin above.
Jueyin below, Shao Shang Metal Deficiency (Shao Shang Jin Yun, 少商金运) in middle, Shaoyang above. Re Han (Hot/Cold) Sheng Fu same. Equivalent to Zheng Jue. Yi Si/Yi Hai years. Movement is Cool, Hot, Cold. Sequence: Shao Shang, Tai Yu, Tai Jue, Shao Zheng, Tai Gong.
Following Shao Gong, discuss Shao Shang. Yi is Metal Yun deficiency. Above Jueyin, Middle Shao Shang, Below Shaoyang. Metal deficiency: initially Fire Hot wins, then Water Cold compensates. Sheng/Fu govern year. Wood Si Tian, Metal deficiency, so equivalent to Zheng Jue. Yi Si/Hai years. Movement is Cool (Shang Metal Yun). Hot is Fire Win, Cold is Water Compensate. Sequence same as Yangming/Taiyin above.
Jueyin below, Shao Yu Water Deficiency (Shao Yu Shui Yun, 少羽水运) in middle, Shaoyang above. Yu Feng (Rain/Wind) Sheng Fu same. Xin Si/Xin Hai years. Movement is Cold, Rain, Wind. Sequence: Shao Yu, Shao Jue, Tai Zheng, Shao Gong, Tai Shang.
Following Shao Shang, discuss Shao Yu. Xin is Water Yun deficiency. Above Jueyin, Middle Shao Yu, Below Shaoyang. Water deficiency: initially Earth Rain wins, then Wood Wind compensates. Sheng/Fu govern year. Xin Si/Hai years. Movement is Cold (Yu Water Yun). Rain is Earth Win, Wind is Wood Compensate. Sequence same as Yangming/Taiyin above.
All these Jueyin Si Tian administrations, Qi transformation operates after natural time. All Zheng Sui (Correct Year) years, Qi transformation matches Si Tian. Heaven Qi disturbs, Earth Qi is correct. Wind generates high/far, Heat follows. Clouds go to Rain Mansion, Dampness proceeds. Wind/Fire share virtue, corresponding to Suixing (Jupiter) and Yinghuo (Mars). Administration disturbs, command is fast. Grains are Cang (Green) and Dan (Red). "Jian Gu Yan Tai Zhe" refers to耗散 (loss/scattering) of feathered/winged and horned categories. Wind/Dry/Hot/Heat, Sheng/Fu alternate. Hibernating insects appear, water does not freeze. Heat disease below, Wind disease above, Wind/Dry Sheng/Fu form in middle.
Si/Hai Jueyin Si Tian. Ding Si/Hai, Gui Si/Hai, Ji Si/Hai, Yi Si/Hai, Xin Si/Hai are all deficiency years. Qi transformation after time. Sixty-year cycle, six Qi Si Tian. Qi transformation is either before or after time. Sui Hui years are Zheng Sui. Zheng Sui years match Heaven Time, neither before nor after. Jueyin Si Tian, so Heaven Qi disturbs (Wind moves). Shaoyang Zai Quan, so Earth Qi is correct (Yang harmony). Wind in Heaven, so Wind generates high/far. Shaoyang Qi combines with Jueyin, so Heat follows. Heat following makes Earth Qi rise, forming clouds/rain. Clouds to Rain Mansion, Dampness proceeds. Si Tian/Zai Quan Wind/Fire share virtue, corresponding to Jupiter/Mars. Disturbing administration is Wind. Fast command is Fire. Cang/Dan grains are Wood/Fire.
