General meaning of herbal medicine

All drugs and acids belong to wood entering the liver, bitter entering the heart against fire, sweet entering the spleen against soil, pungent entering the lung against gold, salty entering the kidney against water. These five flavors also have meanings. Five colors also mean that all drugs belong to Aoki, Rise of the Legend, Loess, Spleen, Platinum and Black Water. Any sour medicine can be astringent, bitter medicine can be purgative, dry and firm, sweet medicine can be tonic and slow, pungent medicine can be dispersed and moist, salty medicine can be soft and firm, and light medicine can benefit the orifices and drain. All drugs are cold, hot, warm and cold, and qi is also; Sour, bitter, sweet, spicy, salty and delicious. Qi is yang and taste is yin. Strong qi is the yang in the yang, and thin qi is the yin in the yang; Strong taste means yin in yin, while light taste means yin in yang. Weak qi leads to diarrhea (divergence), strong qi leads to fever (warm dryness), strong flavor leads to diarrhea (diarrhea), and weak qi leads to smoothness (resuscitation and dampness elimination). Sweet overflows into Yang, sour overflows into Yin, salty overflows into Yin, and light taste permeates into Yang. Light and clear, floating as yang, heavy and turbid, sinking as yin. Yang goes out of the upper orifices and Yin goes out of the lower orifices. Clearing yang to produce phlegm, turbid yin to pass through five internal organs. Clearing yang and consolidating limbs, turbid yin belongs to six fu organs. The meaning of yin and yang is also. Where the medicine is light and weak, it will rise, and where the medicine is heavy, it will fall. Those with light taste rise (such as spring), those with light breath fall and collect (such as autumn), those with strong breath float and grow (such as summer), those with strong taste sink and hide (such as winter), and those with flat taste become (such as earth). Those with strong taste and light taste will rise, those with strong taste and light taste will sink, those with strong taste will rise and fall, and those with light taste will rise and fall. Sour and salty do not rise, sweet and sour do not fall, cold does not float, heat does not sink. The meaning of this ups and downs is also the same (Li Shizhen said: those who rise are led by salty cold, then sink and reach the lower coke; Those who sink lead them to wine, and those who float come up. In a thing, the root rises and the tip falls, and the living rises and matures, that is to say, both things and people rise and fall. Where the root of the medicine is in the soil, it will rise above the bust and fall below the bust (taking the seedling as the root and burying the seedling as the tip). The root of the upper coke, the top of the lower coke, the head with more than half the length, the main body of the middle coke and the top with less than half the length. Although the root and tip of a medicine are different, it is useless to use it or not. The medicine reaches the limbs as branches, the skin reaches the skin, and the dirty heart is dry. Light enters the heart and lungs, and heavy enters the liver and kidney. Hollow people publish, solid people attack. Irritated people enter the air, and wet people enter the blood. Up and down, inside and out, each follows the same pattern. All drugs with blue color, sour taste, bad breath and woody nature enter the liver of the gallbladder meridian of foot shaoyang and foot jueyin (liver and gallbladder are exterior and interior, gallbladder is wood, and liver is wood); Those who are red in color, bitter in taste, burning with qi, and having sexual fire all start from yin deficiency, hand sun and small intestine meridian (heart and small intestine are superficial, small intestine is fire of C, and heart is Ding Huo); Those who are yellow in color, sweet in taste, fragrant in gas and earthy in nature all enter the spleen of foot Taiyin and the stomach meridian of foot Yangming (spleen and stomach are exterior, stomach is earth and spleen is earth); Those with white color, pungent taste, fishy smell and golden nature all originate from Taiyin lung and Shouyangming large intestine meridian (lung and large intestine are exterior and interior, large intestine is Geng Jin, and lung is Jin Xin); Those who are dark in color, salty in taste, rotten in gas and watery enter the kidney with insufficient yin and the bladder meridian with sufficient yang (kidney and bladder are exterior and interior, bladder is stagnant water, kidney is stagnant water, and dirty organs are yang, so they are A, C, E, G and N; The soil belongs to yin, so it is B, D, Ji, Xin and Gui). In the twelve meridians, only the pericardium meridian of hand jueyin and the triple energizer meridian of hand shaoyang have no main veins, and their meridians pass through foot jueyin and shaoyang. Jueyin governs blood, and those drugs that enter the liver meridian and divide blood merge into pericardium; Shaoyang governs qi, and all the drugs enter the gallbladder meridian, which is divided into three jiao. Life gate is in fire, scattered in gallbladder meridian, triple energizer and heart meridian, so those who enter life gate are combined in triple energizer. So are the parts where these drugs enter the meridians. Drugs with similar characteristics are inseparable from each other (such as Cortex Phellodendri, Rhizoma Anemarrhenae, shredded paper, walnut, etc. ); Messenger, my assistant; Those evil people took away my ability; People who are afraid of each other are subject to each other's system; On the contrary, the two cannot be combined into one; Those who kill each other, control each other's poison, which is also different. The liver is bitter and urgent (blood is dry and urgent), and it is slow to eat; The liver wants to disperse (wood Xi is turned up), and it is urgent to eat spicy food to disperse it; Replenish with pungent, diarrhea with sour (replenish with scattered, diarrhea with convergent). My heart is bitter and slow (slow and easy to escape), and I am anxious to eat sour; The heart should be soft, and salty food should be soft; Make it up with salt (according to the principle that water can reduce fire, but the heart can be given to the kidney to make it up, so as to make it beneficial and diarrhea). Spleen is bitter and wet, and hard eating is dry; The spleen wants to slow down (slow down), so eat sweet to slow it down; Make it up with sweetness and diarrhea with bitterness. The lung is bitter, and the qi goes up (the fire is strong), and the acute food is bitter to diarrhea; The lungs are eager to collect, eager to eat acid to collect; Replenish it with acid and vent it with pungent. The kidney is bitter and dry, and it is urgent to eat spicy food to moisten it; Strong kidney desire (strong is not crazy), hard to eat hard; Make up with bitterness and diarrhea with salt. This is also the significance of reinforcing and reducing the five internal organs. The wind is evil in the interior, and the treatment is pungent and cool, accompanied by bitterness and sweetness, sweet and comfortable, pungent and scattered (the wind belongs to wood, pungent is gold, and gold can win wood, so the treatment is pungent and cool. Too much suffering is afraid of hurting the true qi, so suffering is better than suffering, and sweetness is beneficial. Wood is in a hurry, take your time. Wood music, so it is scattered by Xin). Heat dissipates inside, with salty cold, with bitter sweet, with acid, with bitter hair (water wins fire, so salty cold is used. Sweeter than salty, the reason why you help prevent it from going too far is because you will suffer, so you can help prevent it from going too far, and you can help it to relieve heat. Heat, therefore, is collected by acid, so heat is born of bitterness), when wet, it is treated by bitter heat, supplemented by acid, and drained by hard work (wet is rustic, bitter heat can dry wet, and light can help to seep wet, and if acid is used, wood can make soil). Fire is obscene, salty and cold, bitter, sour and bitter (fire is afraid of fire, so it is salty and cold. Passion can nourish, acid can converge, and bitterness can release heat, or it can rise from nature. Dryness is internal, bitterness is warm, and sweetness is bitter (dryness belongs to gold, bitterness belongs to fire, and fire can win gold, so bitterness is warm. Willing to slow down, eager to be content, he can suffer, so he thinks he can help. Cold is committed inside, and it is treated with sweet heat, bitter poison, salty diarrhea, fresh embellishment, and bitter hardness (soil can produce water and heat can overcome cold, so it is treated with sweet heat. Bitter and bitter, still hot. If typhoid occurs in the body, it is salt diarrhea. People with dry hearts should be moistened with spice. Bitter taste can purge heat and strengthen kidney. The indications of these six evils are different, so the nature of the drugs should be clear and the application should be cautious. People's five internal organs should be five elements, gold, wood, water, fire and earth, and mother and child are born together. As the saying goes, to make up for his mother is to save his son. He also said: children can make mothers real. If the kidney is the mother and the heart is the liver, those who enter the liver merge into the kidney and heart; The liver is the mother of the heart and the spleen is the son of the heart, so those who enter the heart merge into the liver and spleen; The heart is the mother of the spleen, and the lung is the spleen, so those who enter the spleen are both heart and lung; Spleen is the mother of lung and kidney is lung, so those who enter lung merge into spleen and kidney; Lung is the mother of kidney and liver is kidney, so those who enter kidney are lung and liver. These five elements are born together, and mother and son have corresponding meanings. Acid hurts tendons (muscles contract when folded), spicy and sour; Bitterness hurts qi (bitterness can purge qi), and saltiness wins bitterness; Hurt the meat, acid wins the sweetness; Injury to the fur (evacuation) is worse than suffering; Salty blood (salty can leak), sweet is better than salty. The meaning of the five elements is also mutual. If the tendons are sour, don't eat too much acid when the tendons are sick. If the tendons are sour, it will help to arrest the contracture. Bitter bones, bone diseases should not suffer more; If the bones are bitter, the yin and the benefits are very heavy, so it is difficult to lift them. If you are willing to eat meat, don't eat too much when you are sick. Eat too much meat, replenish qi and reduce swelling. If you are pungent, don't eat too much pungent when you are sick, but if you are pungent, you will disperse and benefit from deficiency. Salty blood, blood diseases should not eat more salty, salty blood is thirsty (salty can leak body fluid). These five diseases are forbidden. If you eat more salty food, your pulse will coagulate and cry (astringent) and change color (the pulse is blood, the heart is in harmony with the pulse, and water is better than water). Eating too much bitter food will wrinkle your skin and pull out your hair. Eat more spicy food, your muscles will be anxious, and your paws will be shriveled (the liver will combine with your muscles, and your paws will have muscles. For Jin Kemu, the liver is fond of dispersing, so pungent can tonify the liver, but many are harmful). Eat more acid, the meat is tender and the lips are exposed (spleen and meat, its flowers are in the lips, water is better than soil, the sound is tender and the skin is thick). If you eat more sweets, you will have bone pain. These five flavors are also hurt. Drugs are things, each with its own shape, nature, qi and quality. Its entry into meridians is due to the similarity of morphology (such as forsythia enters the heart, litchi nucleus enters the kidney, such as testis); Dependent people (such as wood into the liver, water into the kidney; Those who moisten go to the blood, and those who are dry enter the gas; Today, people kiss, locals kiss and so on. ); There are people who need each other because of qi (such as qi fragrant into the spleen and qi anxious into the heart); There are the same factors (such as the head of the drug entering the head, the stem entering the body, the branch entering the limb, and the skin from skin to skin). Another example is safflower, sappan wood, juice like blood and so on. ), the principle of nature can be understood. Drugs are named after their shapes, such as ginseng and cibotium. Some are famous for their colors, such as Coptidis Rhizoma and Black Ginseng. There are people who are famous for their qi, such as rare signs and Elsholtzia. There are also people who are famous for their taste, such as licorice and Sophora flavescens. There are people who are famous for their quality, such as gypsum and stone grease, turning around and returning to the tail. There are people who are famous for their time, such as summer drought and coltsfoot. There are celebrities, how to make up for it. Each medicine is made by fire, calcination, simmering, roasting and frying; Water system three, soaking, soaking and washing; Water and fire are combined, steamed and boiled. Wine is used for climbing, and ginger is used for warming powder; Salt enters the kidney and is soft and firm, while vinegar enters the liver and converges; Children's toilet system, except inferiority and decline; Metric, dry, neutral; Milk moistens blood, honey soothes Yiyuan; Chen wall made of earth, borrow rustic gas to make up Zhongzhou; The face is wrapped with an arc system to avoid injury to the upper diaphragm; Black beans, licorice soup stains, detoxification and reconciliation; Sheep crisp pig fat is burnt, and salty bones are easy to break; Fat-reducing people avoid bloating, and heart-removing people avoid trouble. This therapy is suitable for everyone. If medicine is used, or the tunnel is not true, then beauty and evil are different; Or the market is fake and the smell is good; Or when the collection is not timely, it is good and heterogeneous; Or the head and tail are misused and the response is weak; Or the control is not fine, and the skills are greatly reduced. Users don't pay attention to it, which is attributed to the futility of drugs. It is a metaphor that soldiers are not skilled and think they can defeat the enemy with bandits, so it is appropriate to take back the body. The treatment at home is simply sudden! "A Thousand Daughters' Prescription" says: Every medicine must be treated and soaked, and then weighed. Without weighing, the wet medicine is divided into two first, and the dry medicine is weighed.
