Overview

Traditional Wood correspondence with liver and gallbladder links the Wood phase to classical liver and gallbladder networks and, in some tables, spring, the eyes, sinews, and related categories. These are historical functional correspondences, not proof that Wood in a Bazi chart measures modern liver enzymes, bile ducts, anatomy, disease, mood, or prognosis. A responsible page identifies the source system, preserves the classical terms, explains only the chart’s Wood assignment and relationships, and keeps all symptoms and medical decisions with licensed clinicians and validated evidence.

Preserve the traditional source context

Classical correspondence tables place Wood with liver and gallbladder functional networks and may group them with spring, eyes, sinews, wind, or other categories.

These terms participate in a historical theory of correspondences. They should not be presented as direct translations of modern hepatology, anatomy, or neuroscience.

  • Name the traditional framework.
  • Do not claim biomedical equivalence.

Describe Wood in the chart without diagnosing the body

Locate Jia and Yi stems, Yin and Mao branches, relevant hidden stems, seasonal support, roots, Water generation, Metal control, combinations, and the relation to the Day Master.

Strong, weak, absent, clashed, or stored Wood is a chart description. It does not establish liver or gallbladder dysfunction, eye disease, tendon injury, anger, or any symptom.

  • Keep the conclusion inside the chart model.
  • No organ or emotion diagnosis from Wood.

Use medical evidence for liver and gallbladder concerns

Pain, jaundice, fever, vomiting, confusion, medication reactions, and abnormal test results require appropriate medical assessment; some presentations can be urgent.

A chart cannot order or interpret liver tests, imaging, medication, surgery, herbs, supplements, fasting, or diet. Follow licensed clinical guidance.

  • Seek urgent care for severe or sudden symptoms.
  • Do not alter care from a Bazi reading.

Keep the correspondence educational and non-commercial

Use the material to study terminology and compare traditional classifications while clearly labeling uncertainty and historical context.

Do not market green objects, Wood supplements, detoxes, rituals, or other products as correcting the chart, liver, gallbladder, or health outcome.

  • No detox or remedial claim.
  • No fear-based product recommendation.
