Liver is connected with the gallbladder

肝合胆 〔肝合膽〕gān hé dǎn

The liver stands in exterior-interior relationship with the gallbladder. The liver channel connects with the gallbladder, and the gallbladder channel connects with the liver. Effulgent gallbladder heat and ascendant liver yáng can both manifest in impatience, agitation, and irascibility. Liver-calming medicinals can also drain gallbladder fire, and medicinals that drain gallbladder fire can also calm the liver. A connection between the liver’s association with the ability to plan and the gallbladder’s role in judgment is also quite obvious.
