The Vernal Equinox and the Qi in the Body

   On March 20th is the March (Vernal) Equinox. The three days before and after the Vernal equinox are considered as a valuable time for more meditation. As the qigong saying goes: "the six days around the Vernal Equinox are the most important for the first half of the year".  This is a good opportunity to stimulate the opening of the meridians and achieve a better balance in the body.

The Governing and the conception channels form the Small Heavenly Orbit. At the different 15-day solar terms the energy is concentrated and active at a certain area on the Small Heavenly Orbit, thus making a complete circle in the whole year.
 At the Vernal Equinox the energy is concentrated at the Jia Ji points  (Hua Tuo Jia Ji points of the back). You can easily feel the flow of qi inside this area now.

Enjoy the meditation in the Spring!
