The fire of Ai is the fire of pure Yang. Therefore, the ancients in China called the sun the sun of the sky and Ai the sun of the earth. Yang is the foundation of life. Neijing said: "The sun is in the sun, and if the sky loses the sun, it will be fatal." If we take the positive number as 100, then a person's life is a process from 100 to 0. Therefore, it is important to maintain and enhance the yang. The heat generated by wormwood is incomparable with other heating substances.
