The Wood Energies
The immense energies that drive internal transformations are referred to as wood energies - like the energies pushing a sprout through its seed casing to become an ash, a maple, or a pine that reaches up and out. In the body, the wood energies are represented by the liver.
The liver resides in the upper right-hand side of your abdominal cavity, tucked under your ribs. It is a large organ with many branches that reach out to purify the body of its toxins. The liver stores, filters, and regulates the blood supply, produces proteins, metabolizes hormones, and rids the blood of anything that is not useful. The liver represents new beginnings, just as the wood energies symbolize rebirth and move us away from thought patterns and emotions that keep us stuck in time. Liver or wood energies grow, expand, and generate.
