Hermetic Acupuncture?

["anton_temple" <anton_temple@...>]

Dear Group

I am very interested in acupuncture and chinese medicine however I 
find it very hard to get on with the chinese elements. I know that 
both the Japanese and the Tibetans use the western/ Emperdolican 
(earth air fire water) elements so I was wondering if any one could 
help me find a correspondence to the meridians using these elements? 
In addition to this I once read that the 12 meridains corresponded 
tith the 12 astrological signs does anyone know if this is true?

I would be very gratefull for any help.

Anton
