Objectives: The author studied on criterions and concepts of the four seasons, and also examined about outbreak, rise and decline, remedy and prescription of diseases.
Methods: We researched that increase and decrease of vigor and up and down of Yin and Yang in human body are controled by sunlight through the literature.
Results: The relationship between the human’s five viscera and four seasons has the homeostasis as a result of the compatibility and rivalry process. Between of the human’s five viscera and four seasons, the spleen plays important role of four seasons. The reason is that the liver, the heart, the lungs and the kidneys manages the 72 days in spring, summer, autumn and winter, repectively. However, the spleen arranges and regulates the liver, the heart, the lungs and the kidneys through the 18days of each season’s ending, respectively. These are the basis of Lee Dong Won’s(李東垣) ‘The Spleen Strength Theory’(補脾論). In four seasons, We make prescription harmonized with the energy such as rising in spring, floating in summer, astriction in autumn, preservation in winter.
Conclusions: These results suggest that the criterion and the conception of the four seasons may be important role to remedy for diseases and to prescribe and to use of medicine
