Functions of the Liver


The Liver houses the ethereal soul (hun).

Commentary:
The ethereal soul stores all prenatal, fetal and postnatal impressions. Impressions that cannot be mentally "digested" by the Spleen are stored in the ethereal soul. The ethereal soul stores impressions even in unconscious mind states. The ethereal soul stores even that, which we don't want to perceive. Visual impressions of faces or situations can later create memories. The ethereal soul can be regarded as our emotional memory. Nightmares can be associated with the ethereal soul. Blood houses the ethereal soul. The ethereal soul enables us to plan the future, based on our experiences. Profuse dreaming, sleepwalking or talking, and a disquiet spirit are signs of a disturbed ethereal soul.
