《内经》说：各种热病导致的视物模糊、抽搐、突然失音、神志昏迷、烦躁不安、狂乱越礼、谩骂叫嚣、惊恐骇异、肿胀疼痛、气逆冲上、战栗发抖如同丧失神志、打喷嚏、呕吐、疮疡瘙痒、喉部闭塞、耳聋、耳鸣、涌溢不止、呕吐食物、视物不明、抽搐，以及突发疾病和猝死，都归属于火邪。
朱丹溪说：人具备五行，每一行都有其本性，唯有“火”具有变动不居的特性。心为君火，此外还有相火，寄居于肝、肾两脏之间，这就是经书所说的“二火”。凡是运动变化都属于火，这五种感官因外物刺激而发动，就是经书所说的“五火”。相火容易兴起，五火相互煽动就会妄动。火起于妄念，变化莫测，无时不在煎熬真阴，阴虚就会生病，阴绝就会死亡。
气有余便是火。气从左边发起的，是肝火；气从脐下发起的，是阴火；气从脚下发起进入腹部的，是极度虚弱；心烦且口渴的，是肺火；口渴且能进食的，是胃火；手心发热的是郁火；烦躁发热的是气随火上升，也是三焦之火。人体壮实、气盛、患癫狂病的，是实火；人体虚弱、气衰、发热烦躁的，是虚火。
脉象浮数而无力的是虚火；脉象沉实而大的是实火。洪大数脉出现在左寸，是心火；出现在右寸，是肺火；出现在左关，是肝火；出现在右关，是脾火；出现在两足，是肾经命门之火。男子两足脉象洪大的，必定遗精，这是阴火偏胜所致。

The *Neijing* states: Various heat diseases leading to visual confusion (*mao*), convulsions (*yong*), sudden aphonia (*yin*), coma, restlessness, mania, cursing, fright, swelling and pain, rebellious qi rushing upward, trembling as if losing spiritual control, sneezing, vomiting, sores and itching, throat closure, deafness, tinnitus, overflow, vomiting food, blurred vision, convulsions, sudden illness, and sudden death all belong to Fire.
Zhu Danxi said: Humans possess the Five Elements, each with its own nature, but only Fire is characterized by movement. The Heart is the Minister Fire (*Jun Huo*), and there is also the Ministerial Fire (*Xiang Huo*) residing between the Liver and Kidney. This is what the classics refer to as the "Two Fires." All movements belong to Fire; the five senses moving in response to external stimuli constitute the "Five Fires" mentioned in the classics. The Ministerial Fire arises easily; when the Five Fires fan each other, they move recklessly. Fire originates from delusion, changes unpredictably, and constantly boils down the True Yin. Yin deficiency leads to disease; Yin exhaustion leads to death.
Excess Qi becomes Fire. Qi arising from the left side indicates Liver Fire; Qi arising from below the navel indicates Yin Fire; Qi rising from the feet into the abdomen indicates extreme deficiency. Restlessness with thirst indicates Lung Fire; thirst with ability to eat indicates Stomach Fire; heat in the palms indicates Stagnant Fire; restlessness and fever indicate Qi ascending with Fire, which is also Sanjiao Fire. Robust constitution with excess Qi and mania indicates Excess Fire; weak constitution with deficient Qi, fever, and restlessness indicates Deficient Fire.
A floating, rapid, and forceless pulse indicates Deficient Fire; a deep, solid, and large pulse indicates Excess Fire. A surging, rapid pulse at the Left Cun position indicates Heart Fire; at the Right Cun, Lung Fire; at the Left Guan, Liver Fire; at the Right Guan, Spleen Fire; at both feet, Kidney and Mingmen Fire. In men, a surging pulse at both feet indicates seminal emission due to excessive Yin Fire.
