Let’s organize. Protect each other. Speak truth. Demand better.

The first time I saw a Chinese almanac, around 1990, that's when I decided I wanted to learn to read Chinese. Still learning, but I can (mostly) read the almanac now.
Two chinese almanacs calculated by the same house of astrologers- 真步堂 =Gen Po Tong= Zhenbu Tang, published 118 years apart, opened to the page for the 6th lunar month

A series on addictions in Chinese medicine of the past. Most of the series is on wine, as that was the predominant thing, but the last video will be on tobacco, opium, and tea addiction.
