熱

In 調候, 熱 means born in the hot season.

The months 巳午未 belong here.

In a hot season the water that cools comes first.

This reading follows the 喜用提要 of the 窮通寶鑑.

By fortune that water is within the record.

It is a grain that can cool itself, and returns to its place even after it has flared.

Yet that water is not within the record.

Once it flares it cannot put itself out, so the place of rest and the hour of withdrawal must be set from without.
