Commentary
Rose blossoms (Mei-gui-hua) assume the leading (chief) role; warm and sweet, slightly bitter in character, it channels into the Liver, Spleen meridians, working chiefly to regulate qi, relieve depression and activate blood. Safflower (Hong-hua) serves as the deputy herb, pungent-warm in property, acting through the Heart, Liver meridians to activate blood, unblock menstruation and resolve stasis. Milliliters of high-quality rice wine lends further support to the chief action. Without a separate harmonizing herb, the herbal tea formula balance is achieved through the mutual tempering of its active ingredients. In sum, the prescription promote the flow of qi and activate blood circulation, aimed squarely at the blood and qi pattern rather than at isolated symptoms.
