Guest guest Posted October 24, 2003 Report Share Posted October 24, 2003 Hi everyone... anybody out there? a meterological question: Here in Sweden the cold came early and dramatically. It has been below freezing for a few days, and it is a little early. It should still be autumn, metal phase. What may happen to the body systems when the weather is out of sync like this? Especially when the season Water comes to early. I remember it was called " uninvited guest season " .... something ? Holger Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Especially when the season Water comes to early. I remember it was called " uninvited guest season " .... something? >>> Holger: It still is Autumn and the metal phase (from the solar perspective); but it is also a Water/Ram (earth) year, Cold Dew (Han lu) season, and a Water/Dog (earth) month. Like the seasonal energy, each cycle adds it own characteristic energy to the mix in the pulses. You need to work out the 5-Element interactions between the calendar and the actual weather. To see how it will affect a particular patient you need to see how their personal balance will change, influenced by this interaction. The rules for this interaction are discussed in Suwen chapters 66 and following; as well as in the appendix of Unschuld's new book on the Suwen.

Guest guest Posted October 27, 2003 Report Share Posted October 27, 2003 Hi Holger, I had a CEO customer in my office all afternoon on Friday and missed your post. I have to look up when winter is scheduled to start according to the Taoist calendar. Nam Singh and Liu Ming, both Taoist priests, indicate that seasonal changes are gradual and require preparation. The calendar prepared by Liu Ming shows the first day of winter as repeating itself for a week. I'll mention the dates when I get home this evening. So you might view your early freezes as a gift of preparation. Get your heating supplies in order, get your down jacket out, and put the extra comforter on the bed. You can also switch to warmer foods.
