Maggiori informazioni sul libro
Chinese acupuncture based on stems and branches emphasizes the significance of time elements, representing a vital aspect of traditional Chinese acupuncture. According to the Nei Jing, humanity corresponds to the cosmos, where natural phenomena and energy circulation within the body can be understood through the patterns of stems and branches, with stems symbolizing heaven and branches symbolizing earth. The terminology includes two key periods: Zi, denoting the first time period from 11 p.m. to 1 a.m., and Wu, representing the seventh period from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. A Chinese medical classic states that Yang begins before the Zi period and concludes after the Wu period, while Yin starts after the Wu period and ends before the Zi period. The dynamics of yin and yang fluctuate in abundance and decline according to these time periods, illustrating a continuous cycle of beginnings and endings.
