Traditional Chinese Medicine teaches that the body runs on a 24-hour meridian clock, where each of the 12 primary meridians dominates for a two-hour window daily. These cycles affect not only our physical functions but also our emotions and energy flow. That’s why consistently waking up at the same time every night can reveal underlying imbalances.
For example, if you wake around 1:00–3:00 a.m., it may signal liver or gallbladder stress, or point to bottled-up emotions like resentment. Spiritually, it could mean you’re overextending your energy for others without restoring your own. Waking between 3:00–5:00 a.m. is often associated with the lungs and deeper states of spiritual awakening. If no medical issue explains it, this window is seen as a time of connection between the self and higher guidance.
