Each finger has a relationship with an element, organ function energy, and an emotion/attitude. There are other relationships as well, but for this post, I'm going to focus on the finger-attitude relationship.

JSJ is all about the various relationships between different aspects of our being. For example, each finger has a relationship to one of the 5 elements of Earth, Water, Wood, Air and Fire.

What exactly ARE attitudes? Are they Feelings? Emotions? If these attitudes are the root of all disharmony in the body, let's make sure we understand what the term ATTITUDE actually means.

Now that we've covered what attitudes are, let's talk about each one individually and how they are each a different facet of FEAR. Mary Burmeister defined fear as False Evidence Appearing Real.

The Five Element Theory is foundational to many Eastern traditions such as Chinese Medicine, acupuncture, Ayurveda, Feng Shui, the Chakras, astrology, and more.

FIRE is hot, active, sharp, loud, rapid, spreading, spicy, passionate, and joyful. Fire is Desire!

Water is cool, deep, flowing, rolling, reflective, purifying, nourishing, balancing, slow, and calm. Water relates to the ebb and flow of emotions.

Earth is stable, steady, solid, heavy, dense, nurturing, nourishing, compassionate, slow, unhurried, and peaceful. Earth is grounded!

The qualities of Wood energy are assertive, unstoppable, expansive, forward moving, growing, purposeful, efficient, and driven. It is the energy of getting things done!

The qualities of Air element are communicative, social, pioneering, mental, observant, clever, organized. The essence of the Air element is Letting Go.
