Summary/Abstract: Based on the conceptual metaphor theory, this paper reviews the target domains and the metaphorical mechanisms involved by the source domain of earth in Spanish language. We have analysed the linguistic expressions of the conceptual metaphors related to terms from the source domain of earth, both in lexicographical definitions (the Dictionary of the Spanish Royal Academy) and in other texts written by cult native speakers.
