【主治】
镇安心神，安定魂魄。通神明。主治尸疰（慢性消耗性疾病）抽风。解除惊痫、胎毒、痘毒。大概朱砂生于南方炎热之地，秉承离火之气而成。体属阳而性属阴，所以外表显现丹红色，内含真汞。它的气味不热而寒，是因为离卦中有阴。它的味道不苦而甘，是因为火中有土。所以可以养心，可以明目，可以安胎，可以解毒，可以发汗。随着佐使药的不同而发挥功效，无处不可用。如果有人自觉本体忽然好像分为两个，并行并卧分不清真假，这是魂离魄散。用辰砂作为主药，人参、茯苓作为辅药，浓煎每日饮用，则真气清爽，假象自然化解。又有人夜间多恶梦，通宵不睡觉，佩戴箭头形状的辰砂，神魂就会安静。这些都是辟除邪恶、安定魂魄的验证。只宜生用，如果炼服，恐怕窜入经络骨髓，流注成为痈瘤疽毒。另外小儿刚出生，用朱砂、轻粉、白蜜、黄连之类，想要下胎毒。不知道轻粉下痰会损伤心脏，朱砂下涎会损伤精神。体质实的孩子服用后变得软弱，体质弱的孩子服用后容易受伤变生各种疾病。

Shihu (Dendrobii Caulis)
[Flavor and Properties]
Sweet, neutral, non-toxic. Short ones that are solid in the middle like a gold hairpin are good. Belonging to Yang within Yin, descending in nature. It is a drug for the Foot-Taiyin Spleen Meridian and the Right Kidney of the Foot-Shaoyin Kidney Meridian.

[Flavor and Properties]
Sweet, slightly cold, non-toxic.
[Indications]
Calms the Heart Spirit and stabilizes the Po. Opens the spirit. Mainly treats Shizhu (chronic wasting disease) and convulsions. Resolves Xian (convulsions), Tai Du (fetal toxins), and Dou Du (smallpox toxins). Zhu Sha (Cinnabar) is born in the hot southern direction, inheriting the Qi of Li Fire. Its substance is Yang while its nature is Yin, hence it appears cinnabar red externally and contains true Mercury internally. Its Qi is not hot but cold, because Li contains Yin. Its taste is not bitter but sweet, because Fire contains Earth. Thus, it can nourish the Heart, brighten the eyes, calm the fetus, detoxify, and induce sweating. It achieves merit according to the accompanying herbs, being effective everywhere. If a person feels their body suddenly splitting into two, walking and lying together unable to distinguish true from false, this is Hun leaving and Po scattering. Using Chen Sha (Cinnabar) as the sovereign herb, with Renshen (Ginseng Root) and Fuling (Poria) as ministers, decocted thickly and drunk daily, the true Qi will refresh and the false manifestations will dissolve. Or if one has many nightmares at night and cannot sleep all night, wearing an arrowhead-shaped piece of Chen Sha calms the Shen and Hun. These are all verifications of dispelling evil and calming the soul. It should only be used raw; if calcined and taken, it may penetrate the meridians and bone marrow, flowing to become carbuncles, tumors, or bone abscesses. Furthermore, for newborn infants, substances like Zhu Sha (Cinnabar), Qingfen (White Lead Powder), Bai Mi (Honey), and Huanglian (Coptidis Rhizoma) are sometimes used to purge fetal toxins. However, Qingfen purges phlegm but damages the Heart, and Zhu Sha purges saliva but damages the Spirit. If given to children with excess conditions, they become weak; if given to children with deficiency conditions, they easily suffer injury and develop various diseases.
