The significance of doctors studying the I Ching

The I Ching is also a part of traditional culture, and it also contains a lot of thinking of traditional Chinese medicine. From a traditional cultural perspective, the eight characters and five elements have a lot to do with health:

1. People with a golden shape. People with golden shapes tend to be thinner in body shape, with more exposed bones and protruding joints. The head, shoulders, abdomen, hands, and feet are all smaller. Judging from the facial features, the face shape is square and the skin color is white. People with a gold shape are stronger, more impatient, and able to make decisions on the spot. But he can also calmly observe the development of the situation. The gold master kills with solemnity and authority. Therefore, people with a golden shape have many talents for officials and generals. Gold is cold-resistant, afraid of fire, and intolerant of heat and heat, so be especially careful in spring.

2. People with a wood shape. Wood-shaped people are tree-shaped in body shape, with mostly straight and slender bodies, small heads, and broad backs. The hands and feet are also small and the skin is slightly green. People with the wood shape are in the laboring type. They are destined to work a lot and have the good deed of working hard without complaining. Wood loves spring and summer, but fears autumn and winter. Therefore, people with a wood shape are prone to liver damage if they are exposed to wind evil, and this is more likely to occur in autumn and winter. Because the liver belongs to wood, people with a wood shape must strengthen the protection of the liver during autumn and winter, pay attention to nutrition, and avoid excessive fatigue to prevent liver disease.

3. People with the water shape are suitable for autumn and winter. In autumn and winter, metal and water are in harmony. In spring, the water vapor released from the wood appears dry; in summer, the fire vapor evaporates and the water vapor appears dry. Therefore, in spring and summer, water-shaped people are prone to diseases, and most of them belong to the waist and kidneys, so they must be on guard against them.

4. People in the shape of fire. In terms of body shape, the fire-shaped person has a small pointed head, broad shoulders and back, a strong body, and small hands and feet. People with the shape of fire have a reddish complexion. Fire-shaped people have short tempers, do not pay attention to money, are fickle, have poor credit, and can consider problems comprehensively, but lack the courage to do things and have poor endurance. Fire likes spring and summer, but cannot tolerate autumn and winter. Summer fire is afraid of winter water. Once there are external evils in autumn and winter, heart diseases will easily occur. People with heart disease tend to be lazy in autumn and winter, which is related to this.

5. Earth-shaped humans have full flesh and well-proportioned limbs. Earth-shaped people have round heads and round heads, and their skin color is yellow. Earth-shaped people are gentle-hearted and do not like to follow others' influence or play for power. They are suitable for charity work. The nature of soil is different from spring and summer, but it is in season in autumn and winter. Therefore, in spring and summer, earth-shaped people are infected with diseases, which can easily damage the spleen, leading to digestive and absorption diseases.
