This one definitely intrigues me. In addition to being part of Traditional Chinese Medicine, the tribulus family includes the weed known as puncture weed or devil's weed, which is so called because its burrs can penetrate surfaces like skin. So the tribulus is probably a metaphor for the corruption of the inner chamber, being a weed that sticks to you.
