Before and After the Fetus Is Born
Before a person cries out at birth, his outward form and organs have already gradually taken shape according to the genetic inheritance of his father and mother; the fetus grows and changes by continually absorbing external frequencies through the mother's bodily movement, thoughts, actions and eating habits.When the moment of birth arrives, the instant it leaves the mother's body, it receives still more environmental symbols: for example, the angles of the stars shining at that moment, the five elements of the earth spirits at that moment, the radiation of earth qi...The switch of the body's code is activated then, and the crying begins.This is the innate setting.Before leaving the mother's body, the fetus is in a passive state, mostly with negative-charge spiritual power.As the mother continually supplies spiritual power to the fetus, she also brings a little positive-charge spiritual power to it.Then one day the fetus becomes restless and cannot stay inside any longer (at this point the positive-charge spiritual power is enough to activate the negative-charge spiritual power, and the fetus's five-element operation produces the second soul).This process takes ten months.There are exceptions, though: premature infants (including those caused by external injury, impact or unknown factors) result from too much positive-charge spiritual power in the mother, which unbalances the fetus's positive and negative charge.Because pregnancy consumes great amounts of spiritual power and supplies the fetus with nourishment, the mother's own health also begins to decline seriously.Because the mother's spiritual power is consumed so quickly, in ancient times this was called "a great injury to the original qi," and modern people observe the postpartum "sitting the month" to replenish the mother's nutrition.
