Toes - joints

Published on Locomotor system.

Joints confer mobility to people.

Problems in the joints denote major undervaluing in the identity of the gesture (it happens a lot when playing sports – the individual did not like his gesture performance) and/or inflexibility. The key words for all joint related problems are, therefore, inflexibility and undervaluing.

Stiffness, inflammation, tearing, distensions, sprains, tendonitis or ligament ruptures in the joints of the fingers denote the person’s lack of sensitivity regarding what he thinks, and his mental pattern. And, of course, an inflamed joint impedes movement. It makes one stop.

Problems in the big toe joint are basically linked to the presence of bunions, which result from inflammation and thickening of the sac around the joint (bursa) at the base of the big toe, causing the outcropping of the joint and the rotation of the toe inwards. It can become very painful when the joint’s sac of liquid gets inflamed (bursitis). A bone expansion may also happen. It happens to women much more than men. In fact, the area of the toe where the bunion develops corresponds to the spleen’s meridian, and symptoms in the spleen are the product of very yin, feminine behaviours, excessively passive. Spleen problems indicate that the sufferer allows little time for fun and pleasure. Duty and the profession (even if that profession is being a housewife) represent what is really important. Life lacks joy. That person will go to lengths to hang on to the past; she cultivates the past excessively, just for fear of not being able to deal with the present. That person will be too regulated, normative, rigid, radical, obsessed about duty.

Moreover, when these women are married or live with someone, their husbands or partners enjoy celebrating and will participate in celebrations, as the women just stay there watching, passively, focusing on their only interest in life, rules.

If tension affects the big yang toe, it will be with a man, and, if it affects the yin big toe, the tension will be with a woman or with the biological Mother. See Toes for yin/yang polarity.

Problems affecting the joint of the second toe are basically connected with material issues, very much down to earth and which the person cannot digest, which makes him feel undervalued.

If the lesion affects the second yang toe, material tension is connected with a man (from home?) or to work and, if it takes place in the second yin toe, the tension is related to a woman, or to home, or to the couple or the biological Mother, or even to financial issues related to the family budget.

Problems affecting the joint of the third toe are basically linked to strong emotions due to a feeling of incoherence that the individual perceives in the other person, which makes him be extremely inflexible and undervalued.

If the lesion affects the third yang toe, the feeling of incoherence is related to a man from home or to work and, if it takes place in the third yin toe, the tension is related to a woman, or to home, or to the couple or the biological Mother, or even to financial issues related to the family budget.

Problems affecting the joint of the fourth toe are basically linked to feelings of unfairness which makes the person enraged. The person becomes very inflexible and feels undervalued by infamy.

If the lesion affects the fourth yang toe, the feeling of unfairness is related to a man from home or to work and, if it takes place in the fourth yin toe, the tension is related to a woman, or to home, or to the couple or the biological Mother, or even to financial issues related to the family budget.

Problems affecting the joint of the little toe are basically linked to issues connected with changes involving old beliefs, deep rooted habits, towards which the person shows a large degree of inflexibility and a feeling of undervaluing.

If the lesion affects the little yang toe, the tension associated to change is related to a man from home or to work and, if it takes place in the little yin toe, the tension is related to a woman, or to home, or to the couple or the biological Mother, or even to financial issues related to the family budget.
