少陽根起於竅陰，名曰陰中之少陽。
少阳根起于窍阴，名曰阴中之少阳。
shào yáng gēn qǐ yú qiào yīn, míng yuē yīn zhōng zhī shào yáng.
Lesser yang takes its root at Qiaoyin; it is named the lesser yang within yin.
竅陰為足少陽膽經井穴，在足第四趾端；本篇稱少陽為「陰中之少陽」，不與太陽、陽明同稱「陰中之陽」。
肝者，罷極之本，魂之居也，其華在爪，其充在筋，以生血氣，其味酸，其色蒼，此爲陽中之少陽，通於春氣。
肝者，罢极之本，魂之居也，其华在爪，其充在筋，以生血气，其味酸，其色苍，此为阳中之少阳，通于春气。
gān zhě, pí jí zhī běn, hún zhī jū yě, qí huá zài zhǎo, qí chōng zài jīn, yǐ shēng xuè qì, qí wèi suān, qí sè cāng, cǐ wéi yáng zhōng zhī shào yáng, tōng yú chūn qì.
The liver is the root of endurance and the abode of the ethereal soul. Its bloom is in the nails, its filling is in the sinews; it generates blood and qi. Its flavour is sour, its colour grey-green; it is the lesser yang within yang, and it communicates with the qi of spring.
本篇少陽凡二見：藏象「肝為陽中之少陽，通於春氣」，與人迎「一盛病在少陽」，「少陽」讀 shào yáng（與第六篇三陽之少陽同一讀法）。「罷」讀 pí，通「疲」。
徇蒙招尤，目冥耳聾，下實上虚，過在足少陽、厥陰，甚則入肝。
徇蒙招尤，目冥耳聋，下实上虚，过在足少阳、厥阴，甚则入肝。
xùn méng zhāo yóu, mù míng ěr lóng, xià shí shàng xū, guò zài zú shào yáng, jué yīn, shèn zé rù gān.
Dizziness and reeling, dimmed eyes and deaf ears, full below and empty above, is faulted in the foot shaoyang and jueyin; if severe it enters the liver.
本篇少陽見於「徇蒙招尤，目冥耳聾，下實上虚，過在足少陽、厥陰」。「少陽」讀 shào yáng（太／少對舉之經名讀 shào），與第六篇三陽之少陽同讀。
少陽終者，耳聾，百節皆縱，目睘絶系，絶系一日半死。其死也，色先青白，乃死矣。
少阳终者，耳聋，百节皆纵，目睘绝系，绝系一日半死。其死也，色先青白，乃死矣。
shào yáng zhōng zhě, ěr lóng, bǎi jié jiē zòng, mù qióng jué xì, jué xì yī rì bàn sǐ. qí sǐ yě, sè xiān qīng bái, nǎi sǐ yǐ.
When the lesser yang ends, there is deafness, all the hundred joints go slack, the eyes stare and their attachments are severed; once the attachments are severed, death comes in a day and a half. At the death the colour turns greenish white first, and then he dies.
「少陽終者，耳聾，百節皆縱，目睘絶系，絶系一日半死」：少陽音 shào yáng。與第六篇「少陽」同條——彼以少陽為樞，本篇則舉其終候：少陽之脈入於耳中，故終則耳聾；膽主骨節，故百節皆縱。目睘音 qióng，謂直視驚顧之貌；絶系（系音 xì）謂目系之精氣斷絕，絶則一日半而死，死時色先青白。
太陽脉至，洪大以長；少陽脉至，乍數乍疏，乍短乍長；陽明脉至，浮大而短。
太阳脉至，洪大以长；少阳脉至，乍数乍疏，乍短乍长；阳明脉至，浮大而短。
tài yáng mài zhì, hóng dà yǐ cháng; shào yáng mài zhì, zhà shuò zhà shū, zhà duǎn zhà cháng; yáng míng mài zhì, fú dà ér duǎn.
When the greater yang pulse arrives, it is flooding, large and long; when the lesser yang pulse arrives, it is now rapid, now sparse, now short, now long; when the yang brilliance pulse arrives, it is floating, large and short.
「少陽脉至，乍數乍疏，乍短乍長」：少陽音 shào yáng；數音 shuò。本篇三陽脈至之形，少陽居其二，而其獨異者在不定——乍數乍疏、乍短乍長，往來不一。與第六篇「少陽」（三陽之樞）、第十六篇「少陽終者」同條而義別：第六篇論少陽之為樞，第十六篇舉少陽經氣終絕之候（耳聾、百節皆縱、目睘絶系），本篇則以「乍」字狀少陽脈至之常。下文少陽在泉、司天之脈，後世脈書多本於此。
少陽藏獨至，是厥氣也。蹻前卒大，取之下俞。少陽獨至者，一陽之過也。
少阳脏独至，是厥气也。蹻前卒大，取之下俞。少阳独至者，一阳之过也。
Shào yáng zàng dú zhì, shì jué qì yě. Qiāo qián cù dà, qǔ zhī xià shù. Shào yáng dú zhì zhě, yī yáng zhī guò yě.
When the lesser yang viscus arrives alone, this is counterflow qi. If the region before the heel vessel swells suddenly, take the lower transport points. For the lesser yang arriving alone: it is the excess of the one yang.
「少陽藏獨至，是厥氣也。蹻前卒大，取之下俞。少陽獨至者，一陽之過也」：本篇少陽之義，在「一陽之過」——以少陽為一陽，其氣過則厥；下文「一陽獨嘯，少陽厥也」，即申此。與第六篇「少陽」（三陽之樞）、第十六篇少陽終之候、第二十篇九候之配（中部手太陰、手陽明、手少陰，下部足厥陰、足少陰、足太陰，皆不以少陽名）同條而義別：第六篇論其為樞，第十六篇舉其經終之形，第二十篇不列其名而本篇獨舉其過——一陽偏盛則為厥氣，治亦在「下俞」；其脈之象則見篇末「滑而不實也」。
歧伯曰：肝主春，足厥陰少陽主治，其日甲乙，肝苦急，急食甘以緩之。
歧伯曰：肝主春，足厥阴少阳主治，其日甲乙，肝苦急，急食甘以缓之。
Qí bó yuē: gān zhǔ chūn, zú jué yīn shào yáng zhǔ zhì, qí rì jiǎ yǐ, gān kǔ jí, jí shí gān yǐ huǎn zhī.
Qibo says: The liver governs spring. The foot reverting yin and lesser yang govern its treatment; its days are jia and yi. The liver suffers from urgency, so hasten to give sweet to relax it.
「肝主春，足厥陰少陽主治，其日甲乙」：本篇少陽之義，在與厥陰表裡相合而共主春生之令。與第六篇少陽為樞、第十六篇少陽經終之耳聾百節皆縱、第二十篇之配中部諸候、第二十一篇「少陽藏何象」（象一陽而滑而不實）者同條而義別：彼論其機軸、其終候、其脈象，本篇則以之定甲乙丙丁之日與補瀉之用。
夫人之常數，太陽常多血少氣，少陽常少血多氣，陽明常多氣多血，少陰常少血多氣，厥陰常多血少氣，太陰常多氣少血，此天之常數。
夫人之常数，太阳常多血少气，少阳常少血多气，阳明常多气多血，少阴常少血多气，厥阴常多血少气，太阴常多气少血，此天之常数。

The constants of a person: greater yang is regularly plentiful in blood and scant in qi; lesser yang is scant in blood and plentiful in qi; yang brightness is plentiful in both qi and blood; lesser yin is scant in blood and plentiful in qi; ceasing yin is plentiful in blood and scant in qi; greater yin is plentiful in qi and scant in blood. These are the constants of heaven.
「少陽常少血多氣」：本篇少陽之義，在「少血多氣」——少陽血少，故篇末「剌少陽出氣惡血」。與第六篇已立之「少陽」者同條而義別：彼論少陽之為樞、其為半表半裏之位，本篇則不論其位而言其分——樞者其義，少血多氣者其數；合而觀之，少陽之所以為樞與其血氣之偏，二說相成。
熱病先眩冒而熱，胸脅滿，剌足少陰、少陽。
热病先眩冒而热，胸胁满，刺足少阴、少阳。

Malaria of the foot lesser yang leaves the body slack and spent; the cold is not great and the heat is not great, but the person hates to see anyone, and seeing anyone sets his heart fluttering with alarm. The heat runs long and the sweating is profuse. Needle the foot lesser yang.
「少陽」之目於本站已立（id 302），所收九條，本站之釋以「為樞」為少陽之要義。**本篇「少陽」3見**：第二段二見（足少陽之瘧、剌足少陽）、第三十四段一見（剌足少陽），**而第三十四段正與「剌足太陽」為一對**。「足」讀 zú；「少」讀 shào；「陽」讀 yáng；「之」讀 zhī；「瘧」讀 nüè；「令」讀 lìng；「人」讀 rén；「身」讀 shēn，本篇 4 見；「體」讀 tǐ，本篇 2 見；「解」讀 xiè，本篇惟此一見，讀 xiè；「㑊」讀 yì，本篇惟此一見，讀 yì，**「解㑊」讀 xiè yì**；「寒」讀 hán；「不」讀 bù；「甚」讀 shèn；「熱」讀 rè；「惡」讀 wù，讀 wù；「見」讀 jiàn；「心」讀 xīn；「惕」讀 tì，本篇 2 見，**作重言「惕惕然」，讀 tì**；「然」讀 rán；「多」讀 duō；「汗」讀 hàn；「出」讀 chū；「剌」讀 cì。**「寒不甚，熱不甚」六字，是少陽之瘧之定狀**：**少陽為樞，居半表半裏，故寒熱皆不極**——**與太陽之「先寒後熱」、陽明之「寒甚，久乃熱」為三陽之等差**，**而少陽獨得其中**。**「惡見人，見人心惕惕然」九字，與第三十篇「聞木音則惕然而驚」之惕為同一字而所因不同**：**彼之惕由於木剋土（聞木音），此之惕由於惡見人而見之**——**一由外感之聲，一由内病之情**。**「熱多汗出甚」五字與第三十四段「渴而閒日作，剌足少陽」相配**：**熱多則渴，故渴而間日者屬少陽；太陽則不渴**。

Lesser yang: it gives pain in the lower back as though a needle had been driven into the skin; one moves with difficulty and can neither bend forward nor look round. Needle the end of the ridge bone of lesser yang and let blood. The ridge bone is the bone that stands up alone on the outer edge of the knee. In summer, do not bring blood to view.

When the lesser yang is said to give pain in the heart and flanks, it means lesser yang is abundant, and abundance there is what the heart shows on the surface. In the ninth month yang qi is spent and yin qi abundant; hence the pain in the heart and flanks.

Above ceasing yin wind qi presides; above lesser yin heat qi presides; above greater yin damp qi presides; above lesser yang the minister fire presides; above yang brightness dryness qi presides; above greater yang cold qi presides.

Gui Yu Qu said: earth governs jia and ji, metal governs yi and geng, water governs bing and xin, wood governs ding and ren, fire governs wu and gui. Above zi and wu, lesser yin presides; above chou and wei, greater yin presides; above yin and shen, lesser yang presides; above mao and you, yang brightness presides; above chen and xu, greater yang presides; above si and hai, ceasing yin presides.

Above lesser yang, fire qi governs, and in the middle one sees ceasing yin. Above yang brightness, dryness qi governs, and in the middle one sees greater yin. Above greater yang, cold qi governs, and in the middle one sees lesser yin. Above ceasing yin, wind qi governs, and in the middle one sees lesser yang. Above lesser yin, heat qi governs, and in the middle one sees greater yang. Above greater yin, damp qi governs, and in the middle one sees yang brightness. This is what is called the root. Below the root is what is seen in the middle; below what is seen is the tip of the qi. Root and tip are not the same, and the images the qi answers with are different.

In a year of fire in surplus, blazing summer heat spreads and moves and the metal of the lung receives evil. The people are ill with malaria, scantness of qi, coughing and panting, blood escaping upward, blood discharged downward, pouring below, dryness of the throat and deafness, heat in the centre and heat in the shoulder and back; it answers above to Mars. If it is severe there is pain in the chest, propping fullness and pain in the flanks, pain between the breast, the back and the shoulder blades, pain on the inner side of both arms, heat of the body and pain in the bones, and the soaking spread of the illness. The qi of gathering does not move and the qi of growth shines alone; rain, water, frost and cold arrive; it answers above to Mercury. If lesser yin or lesser yang presides above, fire blazes and scorches, the icy springs dry up and things are burnt and withered; the illness turns to delirious speech and raving, coughing and panting with a noisy breath, and, below, severe bleeding and unending discharge. Where Taiyuan is cut off there is death and no cure; it answers above to Mars.

Going against the qi of spring, Shaoyang · lesser yang does not give life, and the liver qi changes inwardly. Going against the qi of summer, Taiyang · greater yang does not grow, and the heart qi is hollow within. Going against the qi of autumn, Taiyin · greater yin does not gather in, and the lung qi is scorched and full. Going against the qi of winter, Shaoyin · lesser yin does not store, and the kidney qi sinks alone.

Huang Di said: I wish to hear it all. Qi Bo said: when lesser yang governs the heaven the qi of fire descends upon it and the qi of the lung follows upward; white arises and metal comes into use; grass and trees suffer calamity; fire appears and blazes and burns, and metal is changed and consumed; great heat thereby moves. The illness is cough, sneezing, snivelling, nosebleed, blocked nose and sores, cold and heat and water swelling. Wind moves over the earth and dust and sand fly. The illness is pain in the heart, pain in the stomach duct, counterflow and obstruction of the diaphragm; its charge is suddenness and speed.
