Acupuncture Clock

The Acupuncture Clock is a useful tool for practitioners, students, and patients of Chinese Medicine. Based on the principle that the meridian systems of Chinese Medicine are most active during certain times of day, this clock displays not only the active organ, but other categorically resonant information such as:

Active Organ with Chinese Character
Earthly Branch
Animal
Tidal Hexagram
Six Conformation Designation
Color coded by Five Phase designation

Also included are the famous passages from Chapter 8 of the Yellow Emperor’s Classic of Internal Medicine (Huangdi Neijing Suwen) describing each organ’s duty with respect to the whole.

The Acupuncture Clock has a specific feature called RealTime that allows the user to calibrate the clock based on their location. When RealTime is on, your exact position will be used to calibrate the Acupuncture Clock to map high-tide of Large Intestine time to your local sunrise time, and high-tide of Kidney time to local sunset time, thereby creating a dynamic seasonally accurate clock.

When RealTime is off, the Acupuncture Clock behaves like the classically standard, fixed clock independent of location.
