Jueyin disease, two-hour periods of symptom alleviation, from Chou to Mao.

bubble_chart Note

• The three hours of Chou, Yin, and Mao are the times when the Jueyin wind-wood is at its peak.
• When the healthy qi reaches its peak, the evil naturally retreats, hence the disease resolves.

bubble_chart Collected Commentary

• Fang You-zhi said: "The resolution of Jueyin ends at Yin and Mao; the resolution of Shaoyang begins at Yin and Mao. This is because Yin is the initial movement of yang, while yin is still strong, and Mao is the opening of heaven and earth, the division of yin-yang, hence the two meridians are simultaneously at their peak, and the resolution of their diseases begins and ends here."
