TASTE - SENSE

Operation of the sense of taste

In humans, the sense of taste consists of taste buds on the tongue and at the back of the oral cavity, which contain "taste buds" that convert chemical compounds found thereon into action potentials to three of the twelve nerves.

The seventh facial nerve, the facial nerve, carries (via a branch, the chorda tympani) taste sensations from the front two thirds of the tongue, while the glossopharyngeus nerve carries the taste sensations from the back one third of the tongue. The vagus nerve receives the taste sensations from the back of the oral cavity.

The information of the skull nerves is processed by the taste center in the brain (nucleus solitarius).

Primary flavors
As a general rule, taste is a perception of the interaction of the fundamental tastes of sweet, sour, bitter, salty and umami.

The sensitivity of the chemoreceptors responsible for taste perception is much lower than that of the chemoreceptors in the nose. It should be noted that alcohol is one of the few pure substances that causes both a taste and a smell sensation.

The Spiritual Tool That's Hiding In Your Pantry

If you're new to cleansing or protective rituals, one of the first things you'll be told to try isn't a special crystal or any sort of spell candle, it'll be salt — yes, the same salt that you sprinkle on your dinner. When your aim is something as mystical as guarding your home against negativity (or ghosts), humble salt might not seem powerful enough. But, as a spiritual tool, salt keeps many of its signature culinary perks: It's all-purpose, enhances the overall effect of a ritual, and is easy to use.
It's no wonder, then, that salt's spiritual properties partly have their roots in food, too. "Salt’s association with cleanliness, protection, and purity probably comes from the fact that its mundane uses include purifying and preserving food," says Barbara Moore, author of Modern Guide to Energy Clearing. She explains that salt's color (white) connects it to purity, and its ability to maintain food's freshness gives it protective properties. "Magical or symbolic uses of an item often reflect the characteristics of that item’s everyday uses," Moore adds.

To that end, the spiritual uses for salt are just about as wide and ranging as its everyday or "mundane" uses, as Moore calls them. If you're not sure how to start using salt as a spiritual tool, Moore suggests focusing on its protective powers. To maintain a sense of safety while on the go, she'll fill a small bag with salt and other protective items like runes, and she'll stow it away in her purse, luggage, or glove compartment.
But, you can also do something as simple as keeping a bowl of salt in each room of your home. Moore says doing so will help to balance and stabilize the energy throughout the house.
However you choose to use salt, Moore recommends doing a little prep work first, to ensure that the salt works to achieve the ends you desire. Put the salt you want to use on a table, bookshelf, windowsill, or, if you have one, altar. Then reflect your plans for it. "I invite the spirit of the salt to work with me to protect my home (or whatever my intention is) and leave it overnight," Moore says. By the next morning, she says that the salt's energy ought to be ready, and you can use it as you wish.
(For what it's worth, Moore says that just having salt in your pantry, without charging it to a specific goal, will have some effect on the overall energy of your home, but won't make as much of a difference.)
So, the next time you move into a new house and want to neutralize the space, all you need to do is grab your salt shaker and get down to business. The same goes for keeping you and your belongings safe while traveling and staying calm ahead of a stressful meeting or conversation. Salt's soothing energy is as versatile as it gets, so it'll never hurt to have it around. And, if nothing else, you'll never have an unseasoned meal.

Salar de Uyuni

Salar de Uyuni (or Salar de Tunupa)is the world's largest salt flat, at 10,582 square kilometers. It is in the Daniel Campos Province in Potosí in southwest Bolivia, near the crest of the Andes and is at an elevation of 3,656 meters (11,995 ft) above sea level.

The Salar was formed as a result of transformations between several prehistoric lakes. It is covered by a few meters of salt crust, which has an extraordinary flatness with the average elevation variations within one meter over the entire area of the Salar. The crust serves as a source of salt and covers a pool of brine, which is exceptionally rich in lithium. It contains 50% to 70% of the world's known lithium reserves. The large area, clear skies, and exceptional flatness of the surface make the Salar an ideal object for calibrating the altimeters of Earth observation satellites.Following rain, a thin layer of dead calm water transforms the flat into the world's largest mirror, 129 kilometres (80 miles) across.

The Salar serves as the major transport route across the Bolivian Altiplano and is a major breeding ground for several species of flamingos. Salar de Uyuni is also a climatological transitional zone since the towering tropical cumulus congestus and cumulonimbus incus clouds that form in the eastern part of the salt flat during the summer cannot permeate beyond its drier western edges, near the Chilean border and the Atacama Desert.
