The Yi: Spirit of the Spleen
The Yi is the spirit of the Spleen and Stomach, related to the Earth element. It lives at your center—the solar plexus, or Manipura chakra—the place of digestion and transformation.
The Hun: Spirit of the Liver
The Hun is the spirit of the Liver. It gives rise to imagination, vision, and our capacity to dream beyond what is. The Hun helps us plan and move toward what we sense is possible. Its virtue is hope — the subtle confidence that growth and renewal are always available.
The Shen: Spirit of the Heart
The Shen is the spirit that resides in your heart. It is the speck of starlight that descended to earth at the moment of your conception, carrying your soul’s mandate — your reason for being alive.
The five spirits are the archetypes of our psyche belonging to each of our main organs. 'Spirit,' in this context, simply means conscious force. These spirits are often referred to as sages that we can turn to when we require wisdom and guidance.
When our soul is born into a human body, we adopt these five spirits, that relate to the five core elements.
