Foot Shaoyang Gallbladder Meridian
The meridian of the Foot Shaoyang Gallbladder originates at the outer canthus (Tongziliao, GB1), ascends to the head corner, and descends behind the ear.
The meridian of the Foot Shaoyang Gallbladder begins at the outer canthus, Tongziliao (GB1). From here, it follows the Tinghui (GB2) and Kerenren (Shangguan, GB4) acupoints, ascends to the head corner, follows the Hanyan (GB5), and descends through Xuanlu (GB6) and Xuanli (GB7). It turns back from the exterior of Wanggu (GB12), follows Benshen (GB13), passes through Qucha (GV7 - *Note: Text implies intersection or proximity*), descends to Yangbai (GB14), meets Jingming (BL1). It then ascends from Jingming, following Linqi (GB15), Mucuang (GB16), Zhengying (GB17), Chengling (GB18), Naokong (GB19), and Fengchi (GB20) acupoints.
This meridian in the head, from Tongziliao to Fengchi, comprises twenty acupoints, forming three bends moving outward. The first bend is from Tongziliao to Wanggu; the second... difficult to ascertain the specific connection. Therefore, they are listed sequentially from one to twenty. One: Tongziliao (GB1); Two: Tinghui (GB2); Three: Kerenren (Shangguan, GB4); Four: Hanyan (GB5); Five: Xuanlu (GB6); Six: Xuanli (GB7); Seven: Qubin (GB7); Eight: Lvagu (GB8); Nine: Tianchong (GB9); Ten: Fubai (GB10); Eleven: Qiaoyin (GB11); Twelve: Wanggu (GB12); Thirteen: Benshen (GB13); Fourteen: Yangbai (GB14); Fifteen: Linqi (GB15); Sixteen: Mucuang (GB16); Seventeen: Zhengying (GB17); Eighteen: Chengling (GB18); Nineteen: Naokong (GB19); Twenty: Fengchi (GB20).
The meridian descends along the neck, running anterior to the Hand Shaoyang Sanjiao Meridian, reaches the shoulder, crosses posterior to the Hand Shaoyang Sanjiao Meridian, and enters the Quepen (GB12 area/Clavicular fossa). From Fengchi (GB20), it runs along the neck passing Tianyou (TE16), lateral to the Hand Shaoyang Sanjiao Meridian... outside the Quepen.
Its branch enters the ear from behind the ear, emerges anterior to the ear, and reaches the posterior aspect of the outer canthus. (This section corresponds to the connection with the Hand Triple Burner Meridian.) Another branch separates below the outer canthus, passes through Daying (ST4), joins the Hand Shaoyang Sanjiao Meridian, reaches... descends past Jiache (ST6), goes down the neck, and joins the Quepen, entering the chest below, piercing the diaphragm, connecting with the Liver, and belonging to the Gallbladder.
Another branch separates from the lower part of the outer canthus Tongziliao, passes through Daying, joins the Hand Shaoyang Sanjiao at..., located at the zygomatic region, descends past Jiache, goes down the neck, following... this meridian... returning to the Gallbladder.
The meridian runs inside the hypochondrium, emerges at Qichong (ST30), surrounds the pubic hair margin, and enters horizontally into the Biyan (Huantiao, GB30).
"Hypochondrium" refers to... The axilla is the hypochondrium. The boundary near the pubic bone is the pubic hair margin. The pulsating artery on both sides of the pubic hair margin is Qichong. Below the femoral bone is Biyan, also known as Bisu. From the Gallbladder's origin, it runs inside the hypochondrium past Zhangmen (LR13), emerges at Qichong, surrounds the pubic hair margin, and enters horizontally into Huantiao (GB30) within Biyan.
The straight branch descends from Quepen to the axilla, follows the chest passing the Jixie (lateral costal margin), descends to join Biyan, continues down the lateral thigh, emerges at the lateral knee, ...
Below the rib cage is the Jixie. This straight branch descends directly from Quepen to the axilla, follows the chest, passes Yuanye (GB22), Zhejin (GB24), and Riyue (GB24), crosses the Jixie, follows Jingmen (GB25)... running between the Foot Taiyang Bladder Meridian and Foot Yangming Stomach Meridian, passing Zhongdu (GB34) and Yangguan (GB33), emerging at the lateral knee, reaching Yanglingquan (GB34).
It descends anterior to the fibula, reaches the end of the Juegu (peroneal notch), emerges anterior to the lateral malleolus, follows the dorsum of the foot, and enters between the fourth and fifth toes.
The lateral side is the fibula. Above the lateral malleolus is Juegu. The dorsum of the foot is Fu. From Yanglingquan (GB34), descending anterior to the fibula, passing Yangjiao (GB35), Waiqiu (GB36), Guangming (GB37), straight... ascending into the space between the fourth and fifth toes, ending at Qiaoyin (GB44).
Its branch separates from the dorsum of the foot, enters between the big toe, follows the medial side of the interphalangeal bone of the big toe, emerges at the tip of the big toe, returns and penetrates the nail bed, emerging at the "three hairs" (nail matrix area).
The joint proximal to the big toe is the interphalangeal bone. The area behind the big toe nail is the "three hairs". This branch, from Linqi (GB15) on the dorsum of the foot, diverges into the big toe, follows the medial side of the interphalangeal bone, emerges at the tip of the big toe, returns and penetrates the nail bed, emerging at the "three hairs", and connects with the Foot Jueyin Liver Meridian.
This meridian has abundant Qi and scarce Blood. Qi and Blood enter this meridian at the Zi hour (11 PM - 1 AM). It receives the connection from the Hand Shaoyang Sanjiao Meridian.
