7 Vital Organs of Antiquity

Some alchemists (e.g. Paracelsus) adopted the Hermetic Qabalah assignment between the 7 vital organs and the 7 Classical planets as follows:[1]

Planet Organ
Sun Heart
Moon Brain
Mercury Lungs
Venus Kidneys
Mars Gall bladder
Jupiter Liver
Saturn Spleen

This may very well be relevant to the article, but I would need a proper source to add anything like this. Do you have a link to a secondary source? -- CFCF 🍌 (email) 18:10, 12 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Should this page be moved to Organ

[edit]

Currently a redirect to this page. See view stats: [1] Best, Carl Fredrik 💌 📧 19:51, 18 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

The current arrangement makes sense to me. An article entitled "Organ" would be fine, except that the Organ (musical instrument) is fairly popular, and it shows respect for other uses of "Organ" to call this article "Organ (anatomy)."— Preceding unsigned comment added by [[User:{{{1}}}|{{{1}}}]] ([[User talk:{{{1}}}#top|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/{{{1}}}|contribs]])
However it is far less popular (fixed link to page view count [2]) Carl Fredrik 💌 📧 05:18, 19 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support as CFCF states organ (anatomy) receives more views, which implies more readers would be searching for it. I also think the organ is the primary term rather than the instrument. That said before this is moved this may require wider participation via requested moves (Note - I mainly edit anatomy articles so may have a skewed view). --Tom (LT) (talk) 01:23, 21 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Replace the picture?

[edit]
An attempt at animating all the currently(as per 2024) known organs of the human body.

Hey, I tried to make a picture which contains all the organs in the human body, do you guys think that it is ready as it is here to replace the one which is currently beeing used as the main one in this article or is there something missing? I used: List of organs of the human body as a reference Claes Lindhardt (talk) 18:02, 19 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

No, that image would not help to illustrate the article. It's indecipherable at any reasonable size we might use. MrOllie (talk) 18:09, 19 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
What if I put it on a white background? Claes Lindhardt (talk) 08:31, 21 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Still won't help. The picture is unorganized with no lables indicating which is which. The current one is better and I oppose this photo and any/all variations of it. ZZZ'S 12:33, 23 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
