Hello Dear Readers!
Today we are going to get into the second part regarding the laws that rule the functioning of the 5 Elements. In part 1, we saw the Son’s Mother Law (Generation Cycle). Using it, we are able to tone or sedate organs according to its positions Mother and Son as distributed on the pentagram.
Now we will take a look into the Grandpa and Grandson Law (Control Cycle).What we have on the pentagram is:
Heart is Lung grandpa Small Intestine is Large Intestine grandpa
Lung is Liver grandpa Large Intestine is Gallbladder grandpa
Liver is Spleen grandpa Gallbladder is Stomach grandpa
Spleen is Kidney grandpa Stomach is Bladder grandpa
Kidney is Heart grandpa Bladder is Small Intestine grandpa
In a disease situation, the Control Cycle, or Grandpa and Grandson exemplifies the energy control, that is, it doesn’t allow energy to just be created, passing from organ to organ, as in Mother and Son Law. There is a control over this energy generation through this cycle.
When we talk about disease treatment, the law is also valid, but divided in two parts:
- When we Tone Grandpa – we Sedate Grandchild
Therefore: When we Tone Kidney, we Sedate Heart. When we Tone Liver, we Sedate Spleen. When we Tone Stomach, we Sedate Bladder.
The practical application of this law is used to Sedate organs that are suffering from Excess Diseases.
Exemple: When we have Heart Excess, We Tone its Grandpa, Kidney. Given that when we Tone Kidney, we Sedate Heart.
- When we Sedate Grandpa – we Tone Grandson
Therefore: When we Sedate Bladder, we Tone Small Intestine. When we Sedate Gallbladder, we Tone Stomach. When we Sedate Lung, we Tone Liver.
The practical use of this law is to Tone organs who are suffering from Deficiency Diseases.
Example: When Lung is in Deficiency, we Sedate Heart, since once we Sedate Heart, we Tone Lung.
A friendly reminder that the word Sedate, shall always be remembered as “disperse”, to circulate energy, and it must never be thought on as the ability of making another organ or viscera reduce its normal functioning. Also, the word Tone, shall always be understood as “nourish”, to make it simple, bring energy, blood or body fluids to the places where there is deficiency, for these substances. That means, Tone does not mean to make the organ work more than normal.
When we add the two rules, Mom and Son, and, Grandpa and Grandson we have the following situation:
In Deficiency Diseases:
- We Tone the mother of the organ/viscera deficient.
- We Sedate the grandpa of the organ/viscera deficient.
In Excess Diseases:
- We Sedate the son of the organ/innards in excess.
- We Tone the grandpa of the organ/innards in excess.
The treatment uses the classical 4 point chart, where Old Shu points are distributed. However, that’s a topic for another text.
I hope that you liked it and that you can now comprehend the 5 Elements Laws a bit better.
My warmest regards,
Profa. Fernanda Mara
