This 4 hour class is a combination of text and videos exploring the big picture of the 8 Extraordinary Vessels.  We look at the history of their usage and their context within the 5 channel systems(Sinews, Luo’s, Primaries, and Divergents) and their relationship to the Curious Organs.  We look at their context from the perspective of the trinities of Heaven/Earth/Humanity, Jing/Qi/Shen, and Wei/Ying/Yuan.  We take a look at the themes and acupuncture trajectories of each vessel as well as guidelines for treatment.
