    me again … just ordered Xue Jie, Mo Yao, and Ru Xiang to make a large batch of this liniment for my cohort at acupuncture school. Do you put all the resinous herbs in bags? curious b/c you put the mo yao in a bag but not the xue jie. thx! ps- would love a follow up vid showing how to filter off a bit while letting the “mother” continue aging

    • @LorraineWilcox
      @LorraineWilcox 2 дні тому

      If I remember correctly, the only thing in a bag was tanxiang. That was because I had it powdered (ground up, not granules) and didn't have it whole. The resins just go in with everything else.

    • @LorraineWilcox
      @LorraineWilcox 2 дні тому

      For filtering some off, first stir it or shake it. If the bottle is small enough, just pour some off through cheesecloth. If the bottle is too big, use a ladle or a syringe. That's all.

    • @LorraineWilcox

      You can do that. The point is that they are thoroughly dry so they won't get moldy and will last a long time. You could use a lower oven temp if you like. Just get them dry don't let them burn.

    Great video again. Thanks. I look forward to these ones on ghosts and spirits. Under my notes for St 17, I have it that Ge Hong also recommended treating St 17 with 3 cones of moxa along with 7 on the clump of hair at the base of the big toe (so between Sp 1 and Liv 1) for Dian Kuang with falling fits and manic frenzy (Strickmann, 2002, Chinese Magical Medicine, p.240). Also, on the order of Sun Si-Miao's Ghost Points: if you divide them up into groups of 3, with under the tongue left over, then there is one hand channel point, one foot channel point and one extraordinary vessel point in each group, except the last which flips to having both extraordinary vessels and one channel point. It is as if they are working deeper with each group. This is a modern interpretation by Yuen, unless he got it from another source, but it makes some sense of the sequence.

Your discussion of "water embracing" and the fact that the Xue is located in the earth, where the Shengqi pools as it reaches water, reminded me of some modern anatomical studies that suggested many "acupoints" to correlate with neuro-vascular bundles where the nerves and blood vessels travel closely together. By locating the point as embraced by the water, but not in it, it sounds like a Feng Shui method to find the nerve and get that Deqi feeling without hitting the blood vessels close to it.
