You are a patient listener; even strangers feel comfortable with you. You easily build social networks and act to bond your family together; you like keep everyone connected You are a wonderful behind-the-scenes facilitator. You love to cook for others and nurture your family.

Earth Element is is all about being grounded & connected.

Earth is of the Indian Summer, when the bountiful harvest from summer arrives and nourishes us fully. In your life, the power of the Earth Element allows you to feel abundant and nurtured.

Out of Balance:

If the Earth Element is out of balance, or is blocked from fully expressing itself, you may lack the qualities above, or have lost them over time as the imbalance has grown more severe. Nurturing turns to meddling; empathy turns to crowding; sweetness turns to clingyness; listening turns to ambivalence; carrying turns to worried involvement; connections turn to overbearing attachments; facilitating turns to self sacrifice.

In Chinese medicine, as in reality, there is no way to separate the mind and the body. By treating the Spleen, you correct emotional imbalances associated with Earth Element; by addressing emotional issues associated with Earth Element, you treat the Spleen. Physical & Emotional Symptoms that occur with a Earth Element Imbalance include:
