由此观之，经络、脏腑、脉病、药治，无非运气之所为也。非只一岁也，虽一时一刻之短，而五行之
气莫不存；非特一物也，虽一毫
一芒之细，而五行之化莫不载。上达于天，则有五星倍减之应；下推于地，则有草木虫育之验。奈何俗医不知医
之源者，全然不识运气为何物；不知医之变者，又泥时日执钤方以害人。要之，有在天之运气，有在人之运气。
天时胜，则舍人之病而从天之时；人病胜，则舍天之时而从人之病。张子和曰∶病如不是当年气，看与何年
运气同，只向某年求活法，方知都在至真中。扁鹊曰∶阴淫寒疾，（即太阳寒水之令太过。）阳淫热疾，（相
火之令太过。）风淫末疾，（木令太过。）雨淫腹疾，（湿令太过。）晦淫惑疾，（燥令太过，久晴不雨，
当为疫疠风痹。）明淫心疾。（君火之令太过。）
经曰∶必先岁气，勿伐天和。又曰∶不知年之所加、气之盛衰，不可以为工。学人合而观之，更精于
脉证，乃自得之。噫！儒之道，博约而已矣；医之道，运气而已矣。学人可不由此入门而求其蕴奥耶！
经，径也。径直者为经，经之支派旁出者为络。界为十二，实出一脉。医而不知经络，犹人夜行无烛，业者
不可不熟。

由此可见，经络、脏腑、脉象与疾病、药物与治疗，无不是由运气（五运六气）所主导的。这不仅限于一整年，即使是短暂的一时一刻，五行之气也无不蕴含其中；不仅限于某一事物，即使是极其细微的一毫一芒，五行之化育也无不承载其中。向上通达于天，则有金木水火土五星消长变化的相应表现；向下推演于地，则有草木生长、虫类繁育的验证。
奈何世俗医生不知医学本源的人，完全不知道“运气”是什么东西；不懂医学变化规律的人，又拘泥于时日限制和固定方书来治病，从而伤害病人。总之，有存在于自然界天时的运气，也有存在于人体自身的运气。如果天时（气候异常）的影响胜过人体本身的病变，就舍弃针对人体病情的治疗而顺应天时的变化；如果人体本身的病变胜过天时的影响，就舍弃顺应天时的考虑而针对人体病情进行治疗。张子和说：“如果病情不像是当年的运气所致，就看它与哪一年的运气相同，只向那一年的方法寻求活法，才知道都在《至真要大论》的真谛之中。”扁鹊说：“阴气过盛导致寒性疾病，（即太阳寒水之令太过。）阳气过盛导致热性疾病，（相火之令太过。）风气过盛导致四肢末端疾病，（木令太过。）雨湿过盛导致腹部疾病，（湿令太过。）昏暗不明（指燥气过盛或久晴不雨）导致神志迷惑疾病，（燥令太过，久晴不雨，应当为疫疠风痹。）光明过盛（指火气过盛）导致心脏疾病。（君火之令太过。）”
经典说：“必须首先了解当年的岁气，不要损伤天和（自然界的和谐平衡）。”又说：“不知道每年干支加临、气运的盛衰，就不能成为合格的医生。”学习的人综合观察这些内容，再精细研究脉象与证候，就能自己获得真谛。唉！儒家的道，不过是广博与简约罢了；医家的道，不过是运气罢了。学习的人能不从此入门去探求其中的深奥道理吗？
经，就是径路的意思。笔直的路称为经，从经中分支旁出的称为络。界限分为十二经脉，实际上出自同一脉系。医生如果不了解经络，就像人在夜里行走没有蜡烛照明一样，从业者不可不熟练掌握。

From this, we can see that the meridians (Jingluo), zang-fu organs (Zangfu), pulse and diseases (Maibing), as well as herbal treatments (Yaozhi), are all governed by the theory of Five Movements and Six Qi (Yunqi). This applies not only to a whole year, but even within a brief moment of time or an instant, the Qi of the Five Elements (Wuxing) is invariably present. It concerns not just specific objects, but even in the finest hair or芒 (máng, awn/husk), the transformation of the Five Elements is invariably carried. Reaching up to Heaven, there are corresponding responses in the waxing and waning of the five planets; pushing down to Earth, there are verifications in the growth of grasses and trees and the breeding of insects.
Alas, vulgar physicians who do not know the source of medicine completely fail to understand what Yunqi is; those who do not grasp the variability of medicine rigidly adhere to temporal restrictions and fixed prescriptions, thereby harming patients. In essence, there is Yunqi in Heaven (natural climate cycles) and Yunqi in humans (individual constitution and pathology). If the influence of Heavenly timing (abnormal climate) outweighs human disease, one should abandon treating the human disease per se and instead follow the Heavenly timing; if human disease outweighs Heavenly timing, one should abandon following Heavenly timing and instead treat the human disease. Zhang Zihe said: "If the illness does not correspond to the current year's Qi, look for which year's Yunqi it resembles; seek the living method from that year, and you will know it all lies within the 'Zhizhen Yao Da Lun' (Treatise on the Most Genuine Principles)." Bian Que said: "Excessive Yin leads to cold diseases (i.e., excessive command of Taiyang Cold Water); Excessive Yang leads to heat diseases (i.e., excessive command of Ministerial Fire); Excessive Wind leads to diseases of the extremities (i.e., excessive Wood command); Excessive Rain/Dampness leads to abdominal diseases (i.e., excessive Dampness command); Obscurity/Aridity leads to confused diseases (i.e., excessive Dryness command, long dry spells without rain, leading to epidemics, wind-bi); Excessive Brightness/Fire leads to heart diseases (i.e., excessive command of Sovereign Fire)."
The Classics state: "First ascertain the annual Qi, do not violate the Harmony of Heaven." It also states: "One who does not know the annual stem-branch additions and the flourishing or declining states of Qi cannot be considered a skilled physician." Students should observe these comprehensively and refine their understanding of pulses and syndromes to attain true knowledge themselves. Alas! The Way of Confucianism lies in breadth and simplicity; the Way of Medicine lies in Yunqi. How can students fail to enter through this door to explore its profound mysteries?
"Jing" (Meridian) means path. Straight paths are called Jing; branches diverging from the Jing are called Luo (Collaterals). There are twelve defined pathways, yet they essentially originate from one pulse system. A physician who does not understand the meridians is like a person walking at night without a candle; practitioners must master them thoroughly.
