摘要
水为天地万物之原的思想,留在口口相传的历史和民俗中,上巳节体现了水赋予人生命力与生殖力的水文化。老子将水生万物哲理化为《太一生水》。肾为水脏,太一生水在人身表现为肾气与天癸的作用,故有女子七、男子八的生长生殖规律。肾为先天之本,人之先天形成的过程取象于水,男女之精水相合而流布成人形,就像金锡水在陶范中流布成形一样,一到三月先软后硬。肾为水脏,与冬、北方、玄色、豆、栗、猪等水类相感应。肾主封藏,与闭藏之水令、北方、玄色相应;与包藏之谷果豆、栗相应;肾蓄精藏精,满则泄溢,与堤如蛇墩如龟的治水大坝相应;传统文化中猪与男女之事、生殖有关,肾主生殖,故与水畜猪相应。古人对肾脏之象的喻说建立在水文化之上。
The idea that water as the source of all creation existed in the oral history and folklores. The Shangsi Festival reflected the water culture that water gave people life and fecundity. Laozi philosophically wrote a book,Tai Yi Sheng Shui,which contained the idea that water created all the things. The kidney is a water viscus. Tai Yi Sheng Shui showed the effects of kidney-qi and menstruation. So there were patterns of growing and reproduction,women of seven days rhythm and men of eight days rhythm. The kidney being the congenital origin,the process of human congenital formation took water as the image by analogy. The essential substance for reproduction of women and men combined together and nurtured a new life. It was like the Jinxi water spread in the Taoyuan and it was beginning to take shape from soft to hard in three months. The kidney is a water viscus,it has an interaction with winter,north,black,beans,chestnuts,pig and something else. The kidney governing storage,and it corresponds to water regulation,north and black,also corresponds to beans and chestnuts. Filling up kidneys,essential substance for reproduction will overflow.And it resembles to the natural phenomena,snake being to dam what turtle to abutment. In traditional culture,pig is related to sex and reproduction which corresponds to kidney. The parable image of kidney was based on the water culture by ancients.
