愚按人秉天地之气以生天人一理也。五运六气阴阳之变胜复之。作而人身应之。经曰随
其气所在期于左右。从其气则和。违其气则病。迭移其位者病。失守其位者危。寸尺反者死。
阴阳交者死。又曰先立其年以知其气。而主病之。阴阳虚实逆从生死。母外此以为气诊矣。
[Water and Earth]
In the years of Ren Chen and Ren Xu: The Si Tian (Supreme Heaven Qi, governing the first half of the year) is Tai Yang Cold Water; the Zhong Yun (Central Movement, governing the annual climate) is Wood Movement (excessive); the Zai Quan (Earthly Spring Qi, governing the second half of the year) is Tai Yin Damp Earth. The transformation characteristics are: the upper part (Si Tian) favors Bitter-Warm flavors; the middle part (Zhong Yun) favors Sour flavors for harmonization; the lower part (Zai Quan) favors Sweet-Warm flavors. Medicines and foods should also accord with these flavors. The main diseases manifest as dizziness, tremors, and blurred vision.
In the years of Wu Chen and Wu Xu: The Si Tian is Tai Yang Cold Water; the Zhong Yun is Fire Movement (excessive); the Zai Quan is Tai Yin Damp Earth. The transformation characteristics are: the upper part favors Bitter-Warm flavors; the middle part favors Sweet flavors for harmonization; the lower part favors Sweet-Warm flavors. Medicines and foods should also accord with these flavors. The main disease manifests as heat stagnation.
In the years of Jia Chen and Jia Xu: The Si Tian is Tai Yang Cold Water; the Zhong Yun is Earth Movement (excessive); the Zai Quan is Tai Yin Damp Earth. The transformation characteristics are: the upper part favors Bitter-Hot flavors; the middle part favors Bitter-Warm flavors; the lower part favors Bitter-Warm flavors. Medicines and foods should also accord with these flavors. The main disease manifests as heaviness in the lower body due to dampness.
In the years of Geng Chen and Geng Xu: The Si Tian is Tai Yang Cold Water; the Zhong Yun is Metal Movement (excessive); the Zai Quan is Tai Yin Damp Earth. The transformation characteristics are: the upper part favors Bitter-Hot flavors; the middle part favors Pungent-Warm flavors; the lower part favors Sweet-Hot flavors. Medicines and foods should also accord with these flavors. The main disease manifests as dryness causing chest tightness and fullness.
In the years of Bing Chen and Bing Xu: The Si Tian is Tai Yang Cold Water; the Zhong Yun is Water Movement (excessive); the Zai Quan is Tai Yin Damp Earth. The transformation characteristics are: the upper part favors Bitter-Hot flavors; the middle part favors Salty-Warm flavors; the lower part favors Sweet-Hot flavors. Medicines and foods should also accord with these flavors. The main disease manifests as severe cold.
The above summarizes the administration of Tai Yang Cold Water Si Tian in the years of Chen and Xu, where the Qi transformation and Yun movement precede the natural timing. This section generally discusses the six Qi transformations for Tai Yang Cold Water Si Tian in the years of Chen and Xu. For all six Yang stems (Zi, Yin, Chen, Wu, Shen, Xu), the Qi is considered "Excessive" (Tai Guo); for all six Yin stems (Chou, Hai, You, Wei, Si, Mao), the Qi is considered "Deficient" (Bu Ji). The Qi of Excess often arrives before the seasonal timing, so its growth, flourishing, harvesting, and storage transformations occur earlier. The Qi of Deficiency often arrives after the seasonal timing, so its transformations occur later. As stated in *Tian Yuan Ji Da Lun*: "Excess precedes heaven [timing], deficiency follows heaven." Later in this chapter, it says: "When Yun is excessive, its arrival is early; when Yun is deficient, its arrival is late." All these refer to this principle.
[Metal and Fire]
In the years of Ding Mao and Ding You: The Si Tian is Yang Ming Dry Metal; the Zhong Yun is Wood Movement (deficient); the Zai Quan is Shao Yin Ministerial Fire. The transformation characteristics are: the upper part favors Slightly Warm-Bitter flavors; the middle part favors Pungent flavors for harmonization; the lower part favors Salty-Cold flavors. Medicines and foods should also accord with these flavors. The disaster occurs in the Third Palace (corresponding to East/Zhen, Wood).
In the years of Gui Mao and Gui You: The Si Tian is Yang Ming Dry Metal; the Zhong Yun is Fire Movement (deficient); the Zai Quan is Shao Yin Ministerial Fire. The transformation characteristics are: the upper part favors Slightly Warm-Bitter flavors; the middle part favors Salty-Warm flavors; the lower part favors Salty-Cold flavors. Medicines and foods should also accord with these flavors. The disaster occurs in the Ninth Palace (corresponding to South/Li, Fire).
In the years of Ji Mao and Ji You: The Si Tian is Yang Ming Dry Metal; the Zhong Yun is Earth Movement (deficient); the Zai Quan is Shao Yin Ministerial Fire. The transformation characteristics are: the upper part favors Slightly Warm-Bitter flavors; the middle part favors Sweet flavors for harmonization; the lower part favors Salty-Cold flavors. Medicines and foods should also accord with these flavors. The disaster occurs in the Fifth Palace (corresponding to Center/Kun, Earth).
In the years of Yi Mao and Yi You: The Si Tian is Yang Ming Dry Metal; the Zhong Yun is Metal Movement (deficient); the Zai Quan is Shao Yin Ministerial Fire. The transformation characteristics are: the upper part favors Slightly Warm-Bitter flavors; the middle part favors Bitter flavors for harmonization; the lower part favors Salty-Cold flavors.

In the years of Xin Mao and Xin You: The Si Tian is Yang Ming Dry Metal; the Zhong Yun is Water Movement (deficient); the Zai Quan is Shao Yin Ministerial Fire. The transformation characteristics are: the upper part favors Slightly Warm-Bitter flavors; the middle part favors Bitter flavors for harmonization; the lower part favors Salty-Cold flavors. Medicines and foods should also accord with these flavors. The disaster occurs in the First Palace (corresponding to North/Kan, Water).
The above generally states the six Qi transformations for Yang Ming Dry Metal Si Tian in the years of Mao and You. In these ten years of Mao and You, the annual Qi is insufficient, so the Qi transformation and Yun movement follow the natural timing.

The transformation characteristics are: the upper part favors Salty-Cold flavors; the middle part favors Sweet flavors for harmonization; the lower part favors Pungent-Cool flavors. Medicines and foods should also accord with these flavors. The main diseases manifest as upper heat stagnation, blood溢 (hemorrhage), diarrhea, and heart pain.
In the years of Jia Yin and Jia Shen: The Si Tian is Shao Yang Ministerial Fire; the Zhong Yun is Earth Movement (excessive); the Zai Quan is Jue Yin Wind Wood. The transformation characteristics are: the upper part favors Salty-Cold flavors; the middle part favors Salty flavors for harmonization; the lower part favors Pungent-Cool flavors.

My Commentary: Humans are born by inheriting the Qi of Heaven and Earth; Heaven and Man share one principle. The changes of Five Movements and Six Qi, and the interplay of Yin and Yang, victory and retaliation, are responded to by the human body. The Classics state: "Follow the location of the Qi, expecting it on the left and right." Following the Qi leads to harmony; violating the Qi leads to disease. Displacement of positions causes disease; loss of position brings danger; reversal of Cun and Chi pulses indicates death; intersection of Yin and Yang indicates death. It also says: "First establish the year to know its Qi," thereby determining the main disease. Through Yin-Yang, Deficiency-Excess, Reversal-Compliance, one can deduce life and death; there is no other method to diagnose Qi beyond this.
