Meridians. If in winter the yang qi is closed and stored, preventing it from leaking recklessly, then when spring qi rises and flourishes, wind pathogen of the Gallbladder channel can exert its influence. This is due to the ascending movement of Ying (nutritive) qi from the Spleen and Stomach. Thus it is said: Clear Yang ascends to form Heaven; Clear Qi exits through the upper orifices (eyes, ears, mouth, nose, tongue, throat); Clear Yang disperses into the Cou Li (interstitial spaces between skin and muscle). (Jin Ye [body fluids] ascend to emerge from the skin and hair, nourishing the blood vessels; they are the foundation for the Seven Spirits [Shen], and Yuan [original] qi flows with them.) Clear Qi fills the four limbs. (Clear Yang qi protects the skin and hair, preventing evil from invading; it fills heaven and earth; in humans, it fills the skin and hair, possessing opening and closing functions.) Understanding that the ascending Qi of the Liver and Gallbladder in spring rushes upward to Heaven means recognizing Gu Qi (Grain Qi) as one entity with the body's Qi, requiring no separate identification. The Gu Qi of the Stomach is truly magnificent! It nourishes Tian Zhen Yuan Qi (innate original Qi), which is the Seven Spirits governing all transformations. It is also said: Ying Qi often combines with Wei (defensive) Qi, following the spring wind and Liver-Gallbladder Qi; thus, Wind cannot be easily subdued. If the treatment method is correct, the Yuan Qi of the whole body will not deviate. How could one use harshly bitter and cold formulas?
(Attached Discussion)
Wind is the Qi of heaven, earth, mountains, and rivers. Its manifestation has two types based on distance. One type is the Qi of the Five Elements and Four Seasons from the eight directions of heaven and earth; this is close wind. Spring, summer, autumn, and winter each follow their respective seasons, coming from east, west, south, north, from the ends of the sky and earth, and from the directions of the Eight Trigrams; this is distant wind. Warmth, coolness, cold, and heat, from subtle to intense, are all winds of heaven and earth. The Classics state: Various evil winds are not the seasonal winds that follow solar terms, nor are they winds generated by mountain and river vibrations; rather, they are the air currents flowing through courtyards, alleys, doors, windows, and cracks in human dwellings. On days without wind, these current airflows still exist. Humans living in them for long periods accumulate effects over time, weakening the flesh and skin, entering the hundred vessels, and flowing into the five zang and six fu organs, thereby causing disease. Regarding winds of the four seasons: Ninety days of spring are called Qing Feng (Clear Wind); injuring humans causes Liver Wind. Ninety days of summer are called Yang Feng (Sun Wind); injuring humans causes Heart Wind. Ninety days of autumn are called Liang Feng (Cool Wind); injuring humans causes Lung Wind. Ninety days of winter are called Han Feng (Cold Wind); injuring humans causes Kidney Wind. Their distribution among the eight directions also has different names. The Tai Yi deity follows the seasons, residing in corresponding directions, ruling for forty-five days each, with wind and clouds responding accordingly. The Qi of Gen (Northeast), ruling at Start of Spring, is named Tiao Feng (Striped Wind), also known as Xiong Feng (Auspicious/Bad Wind - *Note: Context implies harmful*), ruling for forty-five days, belonging to the Qi of Zhen (East). Ruling at Spring Equinox, it is named Ming Shu Feng (Bright Common Wind), also known as Ying Er Feng (Infant Wind), ruling for forty-five days. The Qi of Xun (Southeast), ruling at Start of Summer, is named Qing Ming Feng (Pure Bright Wind), also known as Ruo Feng (Weak Wind), ruling for forty-five days. The Qi of Li (South), ruling at Summer Solstice, is named Jing Feng (Scenery Wind), also known as Da Ruo Feng (Great Weak Wind), ruling for twenty-seven days, combining with Mid-Summer. The Central Qi of Mid-Summer, ruled by Wu and Ji (Earth), for eighteen days, combined with Summer Solstice totals forty-five days; the ruling Qi is the same. In this Mid-Summer period, "Zhong" does not mean second of a trio but represents the true center of heaven and earth, where the Five Elements converge and the four seasons unite. In this single solar term, Fire and Earth Qi share rule; the Summer number divides into two positions, hence called Mid-Summer. The Qi of Kun (Southwest), ruling at Start of Autumn, is named Liang Feng (Cool Wind), also known as Mou Feng (Strategic Wind), ruling for forty-five days. The Qi of Dui (West), ruling at Autumn Equinox, is named Chang He Feng (Gate Wind), also known as Gang Feng (Strong Wind), ruling for forty-five days. The Qi of Qian (Northwest), ruling at Start of Winter, is named Bu Zhou Feng (Non-Encircling Wind), also known as Zhe Feng (Breaking Wind), ruling for forty-five days. The Qi of Kan (North), ruling at Winter Solstice, is named Guang Mo Feng (Vast Desert Wind), also known as Da Gang Feng (Great Strong Wind), ruling for forty-five days. From the variations of these four winds arise the Eight Winds. Eight Winds are winds from the eight directions. If wind comes from its native direction, it primarily nurtures all things, and humans suffer few diseases. If it does not come from its native direction but from the direction it conquers, it is called Thief Evil, harming all things, and many people fall ill. Therefore, sages avoid wind as they would avoid arrows. Wind injuring humans may cause Re Zhong (Heat Middle), Han Zhong (Cold Middle), Li Feng (Fierce Wind), Pian Ku (Hemiplegia), Tan Huan (Paralysis), or Jiao Gong Fan Zhang (Opisthotonos). Wind travels swiftly and changes frequently; its diseases vary, and its names differ.
Zhong Feng (Stroke/Wind Strike): Whenever wind injures humans, it may be Han Zhong, Re Zhong, Li Feng, Pian Ku, or Zei Feng (Thief Wind). Thus, wind injury on Jia/Yi days in spring is called Liver Wind; on Bing/Ding days in summer, Heart Wind; on Wu/Ji days in late summer, Spleen Wind; on Geng/Xin days in autumn, Lung Wind; on Ren/Gui days in winter, Kidney Wind. Wind entering the Shu (Transport) points of the five zang and six fu organs is also called Zang Fu Wind. Entering through various gates, it becomes Pian Feng (Lateral Wind). Wind Qi ascending along the Feng Fu point becomes Nao Feng (Brain Wind). Wind entering the head becomes Mu Feng Yan Han (Eye Wind and Cold). Wind strike after drinking alcohol becomes Lou Feng (Leaking Wind). Wind strike after intercourse with sweating becomes Nei Feng (Internal Wind). Wind strike after washing hair becomes Shou Feng (Head Wind). Long-standing wind entering inward becomes Chang Feng (Intestinal Wind). Wind remaining in the Cou Li becomes Xie Feng (Sweating Wind). Thus it is said: Wind is the leader of a hundred diseases. When it transforms, it becomes other diseases, having no fixed pattern. Knowing that wind travels swiftly and changes frequently, within the human skin and muscle, it cannot be excreted internally nor dispersed externally. It changes its nature according to human activity or rest. With wind encountering cold, food intake decreases; encountering heat, muscles waste away; with mixed cold-heat wind, encountering excess Yang leads to anhidrosis, while encountering excess Yin leads to spontaneous sweating. Obese persons with wind have thick muscles, making dispersion difficult, prone to Re Zhong and yellow eyes. Thin persons with wind have thin muscles, leading to frequent external sweating, internal cold sensation, and tearing. Wind encountering deficiency opens the Cou Li, allowing outward escape, feeling chilly like cold, sensing water dripping on the body, sometimes like blowing through a bamboo tube—this is its syndrome. Wind encountering excess closes the Cou Li, causing internal stagnation, leading to heat and oppression—this is its syndrome.
Liver Zhong Feng: Ren Ying pulse and left Guan pulse are floating and wiry. In heaven corresponds to Wind, in earth to Wood, in humans to the Liver. Liver deficiency makes one susceptible to wind, as similar attracts similar; thus the pulse appears at the left Guan. Symptoms of Liver Wind: profuse sweating, aversion to wind, slightly bluish complexion, dizziness and vertigo, pain in the left hypochondrium, craving for sweet taste resembling pregnancy, tendon tension, spasms, bi-syndrome with inability to extend. Diagnosis focuses on the eyes; complexion is green. Heart Zhong Feng: Ren Ying pulse and left Cun Kou pulse are surging and floating. In heaven corresponds to Heat, in earth to Fire, in humans to the Heart. Heart deficiency allows evil wind invasion due to mother-son relationship; thus the pulse appears at the left Cun Kou. Symptoms of Heart Wind: profuse sweating, aversion to wind, slightly reddish complexion, slight fever, aphonia unable to speak, desire to drink and eat but vomiting after eating. Diagnosis focuses on the tongue; complexion is scorched red. Spleen Zhong Feng: Ren Ying pulse and right Guan pulse are floating and slightly slow. In heaven corresponds to Dampness, in earth to Earth, in humans to the Spleen. Spleen deficiency allows evil wind invasion due to overcoming relationship; thus the pulse appears at the right Guan. Symptoms of Spleen Wind: profuse sweating, aversion to wind, pale yellow complexion, limb fatigue, twitching of skin and muscle, fever, shortness of breath, loss of appetite, somnolence like drunkenness. Diagnosis focuses on the lips; complexion is yellow. Lung Zhong Feng: Ren Ying pulse and right Cun Kou pulse are floating, choppy, and short. In heaven corresponds to Dryness, in earth to Metal, in humans to the Lung. Lung deficiency allows evil wind invasion due to乘 (overacting) relationship; thus the pulse appears at the right Cun Kou. Symptoms of Lung Wind: profuse sweating, aversion to wind, bright white complexion, dry mouth and panting, rebellious Qi with shoulder breathing, heavy body and back pain, facial swelling and edema, improving during day and worsening at night. Diagnosis focuses on the nose; complexion is white. Kidney Zhong Feng: Ren Ying pulse and left Chi pulse are floating and slippery. In heaven corresponds to Cold, in earth to Water, in humans to the Kidney. Kidney deficiency allows evil wind invasion due to mother-son resonance; thus the pulse appears at the left Chi. Symptoms of Kidney Wind: profuse sweating, aversion to wind, grayish-black complexion, puffy face, lower back and spine pain radiating to lower abdomen, difficulty in urination and defecation, drowsiness, worsened by sweating, mental confusion. Diagnosis focuses on the ears; complexion is black. Stomach Zhong Feng: Ren Ying pulse and both Guan pulses are floating and large. Since the Stomach is the Sea of Water and Grain, accepting five flavors to nourish the five zang, deficiency allows evil wind invasion. Symptoms: forehead sweating, inability to eat, chest obstruction, abdominal fullness, bloating when underdressed, open-mouth shoulder breathing, palpitations, diarrhea upon eating cold food. Large Intestine Zhong Feng: Bowel sounds ceaselessly while lying down; moxa moxibustion on Da Chang Shu (BL25) 100 cones can be used; Xu Ming Tang (Cure-all Decoction) can be taken. Zei Feng (Thief Wind) and evil qi invade, damaging Yang, affecting the exterior first, lodging in the skin, transmitting to Sun Mai (branch vessels), filling Luo Mai (collaterals), then transferring to Da Jing (main meridians) to form disease. Returning to the six fu organs causes heat; stopping intermittently causes crying. Pulse is firm, large, and excess. Excess type feels hard and full externally, painful upon pressure. Branches going aside from main meridians are called Sun Mai. All Zhong Feng pulses are generally large; this is not heat, but violent wind pulse. Zhong Feng has cold and heat types: Yang disease is heat, Yin disease is cold. Cold requires warm wind herbs; heat requires cool wind herbs; do not apply uniformly. For all Zhong Feng, do not induce vomiting of phlegm-saliva. Saliva exists in bone joints to ensure smooth movement. Zhong Feng causes saliva to surge, rolling in the throat; press it down with medicine so saliva returns to joints; do not vomit it. Vomiting saliva brings temporary relief but leads to withered limbs later; beware. Pediatric Jing Feng (Convulsive Disorder) also should not involve vomiting saliva; pathology is similar to adults. During convulsions, do not restrain limbs; doing so prevents saliva return and causes limb immobility; simply hold loosely. If Zhong Feng saliva surges to the Heart causing sudden collapse, immediately move to a warm room, support sitting upright, fumigate with hot vinegar charcoal to let vapor enter mouth and nose. After some time, saliva gathering in the Heart will naturally retract. Mild cases recover immediately; severe cases regain consciousness. Crucially, do not allow a single drop of soup/water down the throat; if swallowed, saliva binds permanently to the Heart, never leaving, resulting in permanent disability. Know this well.
All Zhong Feng cases with open mouth, relaxed hands, closed eyes, urinary incontinence, snoring sound, straight hair, foaming at mouth, shaking head upward, flushed face like makeup, or blue-black head/face, bead-like sweat, groping clothes/bed, unconsciousness and muteness are death signs. Open mouth indicates Heart Qi exhaustion; urinary incontinence indicates Kidney Qi exhaustion; hand relaxation indicates Spleen Qi exhaustion; closed eyes indicate Liver Qi exhaustion; snoring indicates Lung Qi exhaustion. Possessing these five signs is particularly untreatable. Seeing even one sign among the five warrants examining other signs for rescue. Generally, in domestic Zhong Feng, closed eyes are common; phlegm cessation leads to snoring. Only simultaneous urinary incontinence and open mouth are ominous. Heart is master of five zang; Kidney is root of the body; closure/exhaustion is indeed unacceptable.
