Nine Palaces Diagram
"Nine on top, one on bottom; three on the left, seven on the right; two and four are the shoulders; eight and six are the feet; five and ten remain in the center, assigned to the Kun trigram sector."
Kan (Water) One connects to Shenmai (BL62); Zhaohai (KI6) corresponds to Kun Two-Five; Zhen (Thunder) Three belongs to Waiguan (TE5); Xun (Wind) Four matches Linqi (GB41); Qian (Heaven) Six is Gongsun (SP4); Dui (Lake) Seven has Houxi (SI3) as master; Gen (Mountain) Eight ties to Neiguan (PC6); Li (Fire) Nine is governed by Lieque (LU7).
According to the *Linggui Feiteng Tu* (Spirit Turtle Flying Treasury Chart), there are two systems, and people do not know which to follow. Now, only those with verified efficacy are recorded here.
Gongsun (SP4), attribute Father, opens the Chong Mai (Penetrating Vessel); Neiguan (PC6), attribute Mother, opens the Yin Wei Mai (Yin Linking Vessel). Together they treat disorders of the Heart, Chest, and Stomach.
Houxi (SI3), attribute Husband, opens the Du Mai (Governor Vessel); Shenmai (BL62), attribute Wife, opens the Yang Qiao Mai (Yang Heel Vessel). Together they treat disorders of the inner canthus, neck and nape, ears, shoulders, Small Intestine, and Bladder.
Linqi (GB41), attribute Male, opens the Dai Mai (Girdle Vessel); Waiguan (TE5), attribute Female, opens the Yang Wei Mai (Yang Linking Vessel). Together they treat disorders of the outer canthus, behind the ears, cheeks, neck, and shoulders.
Lieque (LU7), attribute Master, opens the Ren Mai (Conception Vessel); Zhaohai (KI6), attribute Guest, opens the Yin Qiao Mai (Yin Heel Vessel). Together they treat disorders of the Lung system, throat, and chest diaphragm.
Neiguan corresponds to Gongsun; Waiguan and Linqi are generally identical; Lieque intersects and connects with Zhaohai; Houxi and Shenmai also follow each other.
Gongsun opens the Chong Mai for the Stomach, Chest, and Heart; Neiguan opens the Yin Wei Mai, treating the lower body similarly. Linqi opens the Gallbladder Meridian and connects with the Dai Mai; Yang Wei Mai meets Waiguan at the outer canthus. Houxi opens the Du Mai for the inner neck; Shenmai opens the Yang Qiao Mai, and their collaterals also connect. Lieque opens the Ren Mai traveling through the Lung system; Yin Qiao opens Zhaohai for the diaphragm and throat.
Qian Trigram belongs to Gongsun; Gen Trigram belongs to Neiguan; Xun Trigram is Linqi's position; Zhen Trigram returns to Waiguan. Li Trigram resides with Lieque; Kun Trigram with Zhaohai; Houxi connects with Dui Trigram; Kan Trigram links with Shenmai. Tonification and reduction techniques distinguish floating and sinking to determine following and opposing directions; coordinating with respiration makes it not difficult. This is the immortal secret method of divine needle therapy; myriad diseases are resolved instantly like picking up a small object.
Gongsun predominantly combines with Neiguan; Lieque can resolve ailments associated with Zhaohai; Linqi and Waiguan distinguish between Master and Guest; Houxi and Shenmai harmonize perfectly. Needle the right side for left-sided disease to understand high and low; use intention to penetrate meridians and perform extensive massage.
