行氣/Xingqi – Circulating Qi

行氣，深則蓄，蓄則伸，伸則下，下則定，定則固，固則萌，萌則長，

長則退，退則天。天機舂在上，地機舂在下，順則生，逆則死。

Circulating Qi. Deep then gathered, gathered then extended, extended then lowered, lowered then settled, settled then solid, solid then sprouting, sprouting then growing, growing then withdrawing, withdrawing & yet Heavenly. The Heavenly beat is rising, the Earthly beat is lowering, follow this & live, oppose this & die.
