quoted with an energetics-oriented interpretation in Spiritual Alchemy for
Women. The original verses read,
After midnight and before noon,
Settle the breathing and sit.
As the energy goes through
The double pass at midspine
And on through the brain,
Gaining the power of energy
Contemplate the self.
You must find the ancestor of your own house.
Thunder in the earth rumbles,
Setting in motion rain on the mountain.
Wait until washing,
And the yellow sprouts emerge from earth.
Grab the golden essence of vitality
