立春艮上起天留。戊寅己丑左足求。春分左胁仓门震。乙卯日见定为仇。立春戊辰己巳
巽。
阴络宫中左手愁。夏至上天丙午日。正值膺喉离首头。立秋玄委宫右手。戊申己未坤上游。
秋分仓果西方兑。辛酉还寻右胁谋。立冬右足加新洛。戊戌己亥干位收。冬至坎方临叶蛰。
壬子腰尻下窍流。五脏六腑并脐腹。招遥诸戊己中州。溃治痈疽当须避。犯其天忌疾难瘳。
行针须明血忌。正丑三寅二未。四申五卯六酉。七辰八戌九巳。十亥十一月午。腊子更
逢日闭。
(一首上古尻神法一岁起宫二岁来加辰逐年飞九宫)
坤踝尻神震齿牙。巽头口乳并无瘥。中宫正作肩尻位。干背那堪面目遮。兑宫手膊难砭
灸。艮项腰间艾莫加。离宫膝肋针难下。坎肘都来肚脚家。
初一十一二十一晷。足拇鼻柱手小指。初二十二二十二。外踝发际外踝位。初三十三二
十三。股
内牙齿足及肝。初四十四二十四右。腰间胃脘阳明手。初五十五二十五并。口内遍身足阳明
。初
六十六二十六同。手掌胸前又在胸。初七十七二十七。内踝气冲及在膝。初八十八二十八辰
。腕内股内更在阴。初九十九并二十九。在尻在足膝胫后。初十二十三十日。腰背内踝足跗觅。
禁针穴道要先明。脑户囟会及神庭。络却玉腕角孙穴。颅囟承泣随承灵。神道灵台膻中
忌。
水分神关并会阴。横骨气冲手五里。箕门承筋并青灵。更加臂上三阳络。二十二穴不可针。
孕女不宜针合谷。三阴交内亦通伦。石门针灸应须忌。女
子终身无妊娠。外有云门并鸠尾。缺盆客主人莫深。肩井深时人闷到。三里急补人还平。
立春时，天留穴位于艮宫（东北方）。在戊寅日和己丑日，应向左足寻找（避开）。春分时，仓门穴位于左胁部，对应震宫（东方）。若在乙卯日遇到此穴，则定为禁忌。立春时的戊辰日和己巳日，巽宫（东南方）的阴络宫中，左手令人忧愁（需避开）。夏至日的丙午日，上天穴正值膺喉部位，对应离宫（南方之首）。立秋时的玄委穴位于右手，对应坤宫（西南方），在戊申日和己未日于坤位上游走（需避开）。秋分时的仓果穴位于西方兑宫（西方），辛酉日还需寻访右胁部（需避开）。立冬时，新洛穴加于右足，对应干宫（西北方），在戊戌日和己亥日于干位收敛（需避开）。冬至时，坎宫（北方）的叶蛰穴，在壬子日流注于腰尻和下窍。五脏六腑以及脐腹部位，招摇等戊己日对应中州（中央土），治疗痈疽溃烂时必须避开这些日子，触犯天忌则疾病难以痊愈。
施行针刺必须明白血忌之日。正月的丑日、三月的未日、四月的申日、五月的卯日、六月的酉日、七月的辰日、八月的戌日、九月的巳日、十月的亥日、十一月的午日，腊月更逢闭日（月建相冲之日）。
（一首：上古尻神法，一岁起于本宫，二岁来加辰，逐年飞布九宫）
坤宫的踝部和尻部，震宫的齿牙，巽宫的头、口、乳均无痊愈之望（需避开）。中宫正对肩和尻位，干宫的背部难以遮蔽面目（需避开）。兑宫的手膊难以进行砭石或艾灸，艮宫的项部和腰间不可施艾，离宫的膝部和肋部针难刺入，坎宫的肘部都归属于肚脚之家（需避开）。
初一、十一、二十一日的晷影下，病在足拇趾、鼻柱、手小指。初十二、二十二、三十二日，病在外踝、发际、外踝位。初三、十三、二十三日的股内牙齿及足部与肝有关。初四、十四、二十四日右侧，病在腰间、胃脘、阳明经手部。初五、十五、二十五日并见，病在口内、遍身、足阳明经。初六、十六、二十六日相同，病在手掌、胸前又在胸部。初七、十七、二十七日内踝、气冲穴及膝部。初八、十八、二十八日辰时，病在腕内、股内及阴部。初九、十九、二十九日，病在尻部、足部、膝胫后侧。初十、二十、三十日，病在腰背、内踝、足跗处寻觅。
禁针穴位首先要明确。脑户、囟会及神庭穴，络却、玉枕（原文误作“玉腕”，据中医常识修正为玉枕，若严格按原文则为玉腕，此处依原文输出但需注意）、角孙穴，颅囟、承泣随承灵穴，神道、灵台、膻中穴忌用。水分、神阙（原文作“神关”，通常指神阙或关元，依原文保留神关）、会阴穴。横骨、气冲、手五里、箕门、承筋并青灵穴。再加上臂上的三阳络穴，共二十二个穴位不可针刺。孕妇不宜针刺合谷穴，三阴交穴也通晓此理。石门穴针灸应当忌讳，女子若针刺石门穴终身不能怀孕。另外有云门和鸠尾穴，缺盆、客主人穴不可深刺。肩井穴深刺会导致人昏闷倒地，足三里急补则可使人平复。
At the Beginning of Spring, Tianliu (Heavenly Stay) is located in the Gen Palace (Northeast). On Wuyin and Jichou days, seek it on the left foot (avoid). At the Spring Equinox, Cangmen (Warehouse Gate) is located on the left hypochondrium, corresponding to the Zhen Palace (East). If encountered on Yimao day, it is designated as a taboo. During the Beginning of Spring, on Wuchen and Jisi days, the Yinluo Palace (Yin Collateral Palace) in the Xun Palace (Southeast) causes sorrow for the left hand (avoid). On Bingwu day at Summer Solstice, Shangtian (Heavenly Heaven) corresponds to the Ying and throat area, representing the Li Palace (South, head). At the Beginning of Autumn, Xuanwei (Mysterious Granary) is on the right hand, corresponding to the Kun Palace (Southwest), moving upstream in Kun position on Wushen and Jiwei days (avoid). At the Autumn Equinox, Cangguo (Warehouse Fruit) is in the West Dui Palace (West); on Xinyou day, still seek the right hypochondrium (avoid). At the Beginning of Winter, Xinluo (New Luo) is added to the right foot, corresponding to the Qian Palace (Northwest), gathering in Qian position on Wuxu and Jihai days (avoid). At Winter Solstice, Yezhe (Leaf Hiding) in the Kan Palace (North) flows to the Yaoqiao (lower back/buttocks) and lower orifices on Renzi day. The five zang organs, six fu organs, and umbilical abdomen correspond to the Zhongzhou (Central Earth) on Zhao Yao and other Wu-Ji days. When treating ulcers and carbuncles, one must avoid these days; violating these heavenly taboos makes the disease difficult to cure.
When performing acupuncture, one must understand the Blood Taboo days: Chou day of the first month, Wei day of the third month, Shen day of the fourth month, Mao day of the fifth month, You day of the sixth month, Chen day of the seventh month, Xu day of the eighth month, Si day of the ninth month, Hai day of the tenth month, Wu day of the eleventh month, and Zi day of the twelfth month when encountering the Closed Day (clashing with the monthly branch).
(One verse: Ancient method of Kaoshen [Sacrum Spirit], starting from the natal palace in the first year, adding to Chen in the second year, flying through the Nine Palaces annually.)
Kaoshen in the Kun Palace affects the ankle and sacrum; in the Zhen Palace, the teeth and jaws; in the Xun Palace, the head, mouth, and breasts are incurable (avoid). The Central Palace corresponds to the shoulder and sacrum; the Qian Palace's back cannot cover the face and eyes (avoid). The Dui Palace's arms are difficult to treat with Bian stones or moxibustion; the Gen Palace's neck and waist should not have moxa applied; the Li Palace's knees and ribs are hard to needle; the Kan Palace's elbows belong to the stomach and legs (avoid).
On the 1st, 11th, and 21st days, the shadow falls on the big toe of the foot, nasal bridge, and little finger of the hand. On the 12th, 22nd, and 32nd days, the external malleolus, hairline, and external malleolus position. On the 3rd, 13th, and 23rd days, the inner thigh, teeth, feet, and liver. On the 4th, 14th, and 24th days on the right, the waist, stomach epigastrium, and Yangming hand meridian. On the 5th, 15th, and 25th days together, inside the mouth, whole body, and Foot-Yangming meridian. On the 6th, 16th, and 26th days similarly, palms, chest front, and again in the chest. On the 7th, 17th, and 27th days, internal malleolus, Qichong acupoint, and knees. On the 8th, 18th, and 28th days at Chen hour, inside the wrist, inner thigh, and yin regions. On the 9th, 19th, and 29th days, at the sacrum, feet, and posterior knee/shin. On the 10th, 20th, and 30th days, seek in the lower back, internal malleolus, and dorsum of the foot.
Forbidden acupuncture points must be known first: Naohu, Xinhui, and Shenting; Luoque, Yuwan (likely typo for Yupzhen/Yuzhen in original text, but translated as written), Jiaosun; Lufeng, Chengqi following Chengling; Shendao, Lingtai, and Danzhong are forbidden. Shuifen, Shenguan (likely Shenque/Guan yuan), and Huiyin. Henggu, Qichong, Shouwuli, Jimen, Chengjin, and Qingling. Plus Sanyangluo on the arm, totaling twenty-two points that must not be needled. Pregnant women should not needle Hegu; Sanyinjiao also follows this rule. Stone Gate (Shimen) acupuncture/moxibustion must be avoided; if women needle Shimen, they will never conceive. Additionally, Yunmen and Jiutail; Quepen and Kerenman should not be deep. Deep needling of Jianjing causes fainting; urgent tonification of Zusanli restores calmness.
