The Spleen corresponds to Earth in the Five Elements. The Spleen resides in the central region of the body and is the organ governing Yi (intellect) and Zhi (willpower). The Liver, Heart, Lung, and Kidney all rely on the essence and Qi of the Spleen for nourishment. The Spleen and Stomach are exterior-interiorly related. The Spleen governs the transformation of grains and the reception of food, while the Stomach is the sea of water and grains. Therefore, medical classics state that the stomach Qi is the foundation for physiological activities throughout the four seasons. Women with irregular Qi and Blood and damaged Zang-Fu organs may suffer from loss of appetite.
