MAP DESCRIBING THE RESONANCE OF MACROCOSM AND MICROCOSM
By Heiner Fruehauf
National University of Natural Medicine, College of Classical Chinese Medicine
For over 25 years, Heiner Fruehauf has led a research project decoding the ancient Chinese science linking macrocosm and microcosm, which so crucially informed the original definition of the 12 organ networks of classical Chinese medicine.
Per popular request, he has synthesized this information into a “holomap”, which reflects the functional resonance of each organ systems with the 28 stellar constellations, the 12 earthly branches, the 12 tidal hexagrams, the 12 times of the day, the 12 months of the year, and the 12 rivers mentioned in Lingshu chapter 12. Many of the complex details of this work can be accessed under the Cosmology and Symbolism category in the member pages.

Hello, The holomap is such a gift, Thank You for all your hard work…it is an inspiration.
Thank you!
Thankyou for this inspiring holomap.
Excellent! Thank you.
Dear Heiner, I have a question about the CHINESE MEDICINE HOLOMAP.
What time is this? Some sources talk about Chinese time, and others about Greenwich mean time, I live in the Europe and we have Winter and summer time.But what is the exact time for using the CHINESE MEDICINE HOLOMAP.
Greetings.Carlos Hoogers
Carlos: The months of the year on this map refer to the ancient agricultural calendar of China (where the first month of the Chinese year always begins on February 4th or 5th). It works for the Northern hemisphere. The time of day refers to astrological time anywhere in the world (meaning the local time of the spot where you presently live)–not Chinese time, and not artificial (political/arbitrary) summer time.
Dear Heiner, I have a question regarding your holomap. In the 28 stellar constellations the eastern ones (jiao, kang etc) are written in the west side of the map and gradually convert into the northern constellations which seems a bit counterintuitive. Could you explain this?
Thanks in advance
