One Qi Flowing Cycle
Version 1.0.0 · Updated 2026-07-30
CORE DEFINITION
A minimalist human body model proposed by Huang Yuanyu in the Qing Dynasty. The Earth (Spleen and Stomach) rotates in the center, driving the Wood and Fire on the left to ascend, and the Metal and Water on the right to descend, forming a perfect circle. All diseases are due to the circle not rotating.
SCAFFOLDING EFFECT
Reduce cognitive load
Turbocharged model. No need to memorize complex meridians. Just see where the wheel is stuck: Is the bearing (dampness in the Spleen and Stomach) rusty? Or is the left blade (Liver) too heavy to rise? Fix the wheel, and Qi and blood will flow freely.
Anchor fast decisions
In Traditional Chinese Medicine (the Huang Yuanyu lineage), it is believed that the middle Qi rotates left and right, Qi, blood, water, and grains flow continuously throughout the body. If the circular movement is abnormal, disease occurs, emphasizing the restoration of the cycle of ascending, descending, exiting, and entering.
