经云，肝者将军之官，谋虑出焉。
又云：肝居膈下，上着脊之九椎下，是经常多血少气，其合筋也，其荣爪也，
主藏魂，开窍于目，其系上络心肺，下亦无窍。
『难经』曰：肝重二斤四两，左三叶右四叶，凡七叶，肝之为脏，
其治在左，其藏在右胁之前，并肩着脊之第九椎（图七十一）

经文说：肝是将军之官，谋虑由此产生。
又说：肝位于膈膜之下，向上附着于脊柱第九椎骨下方，这是经常多血少气的经脉，其外合为筋，其荣华表现在爪甲上，主要功能是藏魂，开窍于眼睛，其经络上行联络心和肺，下行也没有孔窍。
《难经》说：肝脏重二斤四两，左边三叶右边四叶，共七叶。肝作为脏器，其气机治理部位在左侧，其脏体藏在右侧胁部之前，并列附着于脊柱第九椎骨处（图七十一）。

The Classic states: The Liver is the official of the general, from which planning and deliberation arise.
It further states: The Liver resides below the diaphragm, attaching superiorly to the lower part of the ninth thoracic vertebra of the spine. This meridian is characterized by abundant blood and scarce qi. Its exterior correspondence is the sinews (tendons), its luster manifests in the nails. It primarily stores the Hun (Ethereal Soul), opens into the eyes, its system connects superiorly to the Heart and Lungs, and has no orifice inferiorly.
The *Nan Jing* (Classic of Difficult Issues) states: The Liver weighs two jin and four liang. It has three lobes on the left and four on the right, totaling seven lobes. As an organ, its functional governance is located on the left, while its physical body resides anterior to the right hypochondrium, adjacent to the ninth thoracic vertebra of the spine (Figure 71).
Text:
The Foot-Jueyin Liver Meridian originates at the pubic hair region of the big toe, ascends along the medial aspect of the dorsum of the foot, one cun anterior to the medial malleolus, then ascends eight cun above the ankle, crossing posterior to the Foot-Taiyin Spleen Meridian. It ascends along the medial aspect of the popliteal fossa, follows the medial aspect of the thigh, enters the pubic region, passes around the external genitalia, reaches the lower abdomen, flanks the Stomach, belongs to the Liver, and connects with the Gallbladder. It pierces through the diaphragm, spreads throughout the hypochondriac region, follows the posterior aspect of the throat, ascends into the nasopharynx (hangsang), connects with the optic nerve system (mu xi), emerges superiorly onto the forehead, and meets the Du Meridian at the vertex.
A branch descends from the optic nerve system to the inner cheek, encircling the interior of the lips. Another branch diverges from the Liver, pierces through the diaphragm, and ascends to pour into the Lungs (Figure 72).
Text:
The Foot-Jueyin Liver Meridian terminates here; it begins at the cluster of hairs at the tip of the big toe. At the medial border of the dorsum of the foot lies Taichong (LR3); one cun anterior to the medial malleolus is Zhongfeng (LR4). Ascending above the ankle, it crosses posterior to the Taiyin Meridian, following the medial popliteal region and the medial thigh (Yin Gu Chong). It circles the genitalia and reaches the lower abdomen, flanking the stomach, belonging to the Liver and connecting with the Gallbladder. It pierces the diaphragm and distributes in the costal region, flanking the throat and nasopharynx, connecting with the eye system. The pulse ascends to the vertex to meet the Du Meridian; a branch returns to originate within the eye system. Descending, it connects with the inner cheeks and circles the lips. Another branch communicates from the diaphragm to the Lungs.
Notes: [1] The Foot-Jueyin Liver Meridian originates at the Dazhuan (LR1) and Xingjian (LR2) acupoints at the junction of the pubic hair on the big toe. From Xingjian, it ascends along the medial border of the dorsum of the foot to Taichong (LR3). From Taichong, one cun anterior to the medial malleolus leads to Zhongfeng (LR4).
[2] From Zhongfeng, following five cun along the medial malleolus, one enters Ligou (LR5).
[3] From Ligou, ascending seven cun above the ankle to Zhongdu (LR8), and then eight cun above the medial malleolus, it crosses posterior to the Foot-Taiyin Meridian, ascending along the medial aspect of the ankle to Kunlun (LR7) and Ququan (LR8).
[4] From Ququan, following the medial thigh through Yinbao (LR9) and Wuli (LR10), entering Yinlian (LR11) in the pubic hair region, passing the genitalia to reach the lower abdomen, ascending to Zhangmen (LR13), proceeding from Zhangmen to Qimen (LR14). From Qimen moving inward, it flanks the stomach, belongs to the Liver, and connects with the Gallbladder. It pierces the diaphragm, distributes in the costal region, scatters among the zang-fu organs, follows the posterior throat, ascends into the nasopharynx, connects with the eye system, emerges onto the forehead, and meets the Du Meridian at the vertex.
[5] One branch does not ascend to meet the vertex but descends from below the eye to the inner cheek, circling the lips.
[6] Another branch diverges from the Liver, pierces the diaphragm, and ascends to pour into the Lungs, thereby connecting with the Hand-Taiyin Lung Meridian.
