Explanation of Chart No. 5

Chart No. 5 shows the left hand with its ligaments and muscles - front and back - for energy response throughout the body. The hands are neuter [neutral] pole areas and are of great value in all acute conditions which are active then.

The hands are also the body's indicator and prognosticator. Color, thickness, ridges, splitting nails, peeling nails, etc. all have their meaning and indication in illness. A little careful observation will reveal much. A split nail or a heavy ridge which splits at the end, indicates an acute condition working out.

It is of great help to the doctor and to the patient when this can be pointed out as an energy imbalance in the system which must go through repairs. The nail will tell the story of progress. This often 'saves face' and hope, and makes it easier to carry on through difficulties which would otherwise prove too long drawn-out and disheartening at times.

The toe nails also reveal the prognosis of the vital reserve and the circulation to the extremity, even as large ear lobes indicate a good vital energy reserve which will pull a patient through, where others with less or no vital energy reserve might succumb.

Firm thighs and buttocks are the vital indicators in the water energy [Yin1] field of generative vital reserve energy. The Mound of Venus, at the base of the thumb, tells the same story in the neuter [neutral] pole area of the hand. So also the firmness and fleshiness of the hollow of the hand gives assurance of fair heart action through vital support from within. Truly, the human body is wonderfully made!

Some unusual response areas are listed in Figure 2 on Chart No. 5; for instance, the root of the nails for Neuralgia, according to the location of the teeth involved. In acute conditions it works like a charm when the exact spot is found and pressed with the finger nail of the other hand, using either the thumb or the second finger. One may also use a gold ring for this purpose by pressing the edge of it against the root of the nail.

Neuralgia is the cry of a nerve for food. This condition needs heat and dilation of the positive pole of the sun [Yang1], or the application of the edge and pressure of a gold comb, ring or any gold object with a fine contact edge.

When I was in India I had severe facial neuralgia involving the incisors on the left side. I found the most tender spot

1 To alleviate confusion between the Three Principles (Fire, Water and Air) and the Five Elements (Ether, Air, Fire, Water and Earth), many Polarity practitioners refer to Dr. Stone's "Fiery Principle" as "Yang," his "Watery Principle" as "Yin," and his "Airy Principle as "Neutral" or "Tao." See The Three Principles and Five Elements for more information.
