Middle Back Pain 12 thoracic vertebrae B Psychosomatic and Holistic Meaning and Interpretation

In the Western classification, there are 33 vertebrae, starting from the top: 7 cervical (neck), relatively thin; 12 dorsal (back), fairly robust; 5 lumbar (lower back), stronger; 5 sacral (sacrum), fused, forming a downward triangle; and 4 coccygeal, fused and atrophied. The spine serves as the support, protection, and resistance, akin to the pillar of a structure. It upholds and safeguards me in all life situations, representing both physical and inner strength. Without it, I would falter. The spine also symbolizes my core and spiritual energy, signifying my adaptability and resilience in life's various circumstances. Spinal deviations, such as scoliosis or lordosis, correlate with the deeper aspects of my energetic system.

Blockages, feelings of helplessness, bearing a weight too heavy to carry, unmet emotional needs, and more can trigger physical discomfort. I sometimes perceive myself as the pillar within my family, work, or any situation I'm part of. I question what would happen if I were absent; would everything crumble? My spine connects all aspects of my being, storing thoughts, feelings, responses, and sensations. These are imprinted not only in the spine but also in relevant parts of the body. By examining the affected area and identifying the root cause, I accept and integrate the source more harmoniously, forging a path to becoming the person I aspire to be.

The central back region represents the large thoracic area between the heart and the lumbar vertebrae. It's associated with emotional and affective guilt. The 12 dorsal vertebrae, identified by the letter D followed by their sequential number, or by the letter T for thoracic vertebrae, primarily relate to this area:

D1 = The first dorsal vertebra, D1, reacts strongly when I push myself to my limits, whether at work, in sports, or in situations where I exhaust my mental, physical, or emotional capabilities. It doesn't tolerate substances like alcohol or drugs, leading to heightened sensitivity. I create self-defense mechanisms to shield myself from my environment and prevent emotional harm. This can manifest in my actions or words, such as distancing others with coldness or hurtful remarks. It might even result in significant weight gain as a form of physical protection, unconsciously aiming to occupy more space and leave less for others. It can also mask underlying shyness and intensify when I fear losing people's love. I must remain vigilant and avoid dwelling on negativity, repetitive thoughts, and frustrations. A troubled D1 can cause ailments from my elbows to fingertips and breathing difficulties like coughing or asthma.

D2 = The second dorsal vertebra, D2, is sensitive to emotional suppression. If I bottle up my emotions, D2 triggers "back pain." Feeling out of place in life, perceiving it as unfair, or seeing myself as a victim can affect D2. I might be highly sensitive to family matters, experiencing conflicts intensely. I may hold onto old grievances or dwell on past experiences, avoiding future with confidence. Facing unfamiliar situations can trigger fear, leading me to adopt an authoritarian facade to mask self-doubt. This can result in irritability and mood swings. A troubled D2 can also impact the heart and related organs, as well as the lungs. I must learn to embrace new challenges, let go of the past, and focus on building trust in my abilities. Refer to the heart section for further insights.

D3 = The third dorsal vertebra, D3, is linked to the lungs and chest. It reacts to sensory experiences that don't align with my standards of right and wrong. I can be rigid in my thinking, quick to judge, and strongly reactive to perceived injustices. I may construct scenarios in my mind to avoid facing reality, leading to depression, sadness, and withdrawal. It's vital to accept imperfections in life, adapt to change, and avoid fixating on negative judgments. D3 issues can lead to various physical ailments, including chest problems.

D4 = The fourth dorsal vertebra, D4, pertains to desires and pleasures, often unsatisfied. My expectations can be excessive, leading to frustration, anger, and a sense of emptiness. I may resort to thrill-seeking activities or substance use to escape emotional turmoil. This can result in rejecting others, maintaining distance, and nurturing negativity. Recognizing and accepting my emotions is essential to living a fulfilling life. D4 problems may also affect the gallbladder.

D5 = The fifth dorsal vertebra, D5, responds when I feel a loss of control, leading to destabilization and, in some cases, panic. This can manifest in controlling behaviors, especially in relationships. Frustration, impatience, and anger may arise if things don't go as planned. Balancing ambitions with inner values is crucial to achieving harmony. D5 issues can impact the liver and blood circulation.

D6 = The sixth dorsal vertebra, D6, reacts when I excessively self-criticize and judge myself harshly. Growing up in a strict environment can lead to guilt and anxiety. I may have difficulty accepting myself, feel like a victim, and harbor resentment. Embracing flexibility, self-acceptance, and positive thinking is essential to overcoming D6-related challenges. Stomach discomfort is often associated with D6 issues.

D7 = The seventh dorsal vertebra, D7, reflects hard work and pushing oneself to the limit without allowing for rest. Escaping from problems, financial or emotional, can lead to discouragement and dissatisfaction. Accumulated anger and stubbornness can result in physical and emotional blockages. Recognizing abundance in life and allowing time for self-care is crucial to resolving D7 issues. Pancreatic and duodenal problems can accompany D7 troubles.

D8 and D9 = The eighth and ninth dorsal vertebrae, D8 & D9, both relate to fear of losing control in situations or with people. The need for absolute control can lead to insecurity and isolation. Trusting life, letting go of excessive control, and embracing change are necessary for healing D8 and D9 issues. Problems with the adrenal glands or allergies may accompany D9 issues.

D10 = The tenth dorsal vertebra, D10, reflects deep insecurity and a tendency to see the negative side of things. Seeking temporary relief through substances like alcohol or drugs can exacerbate feelings of helplessness and pessimism. It's important to find courage, seek help, and develop a positive outlook. Kidney issues are commonly associated with D10 problems.

D11 = The eleventh dorsal vertebra, D11, signifies struggles with the nervous system and a tendency to distort reality to cope with sensitivity. Suicidal thoughts and emotional turmoil may arise when unable to compromise with reality. Learning to move forward, face challenges, and express emotions are essential for overcoming D11-related difficulties. Kidney problems and skin diseases can occur with D11 issues.

D12 = The twelfth dorsal vertebra, D12, is affected when living in a critical and judgmental manner. Insecurity and anger stemming from misinterpreted observations can lead to morbid thoughts and jealousy. Communicating openly, seeking clarification, and releasing doubt and insecurity are key to resolving D12 issues. Intestinal problems and joint pains can accompany D12 troubles.

Pain in the middle of the back signifies difficulties in one's relationship with life and life situations. It corresponds to the externalization of living energy and challenges one's inner maturity and divine qualities. Embracing transparency, self-acceptance, and seeking help when needed are crucial for overall well-being.

Lumbago refers to a condition in the nucleus of the intervertebral disc between the last two lumbar vertebrae. It manifests as a sharp lumbar pain, typically occurring when lifting objects, restricting movement and causing significant discomfort. Refer to back pain, considering the added anger and guilt related to feeling unable to handle all material responsibilities. This message underscores the need for urgency, as your inflexibility leads to avoidable issues. Embrace flexibility and accept support from others, allowing them to contribute in their own way.

Pott's disease is a form of tuberculosis affecting the vertebrae, beginning with non-specific disc compression. As it progresses, it can lead to partial or complete fusion of the affected disc and extend to the vertebral body. Please consult the section on tuberculosis and back pain for more information.

The upper back corresponds to the region of the heart and the cardiac energy center. Back pain in this area relates to the early stages of conception, basic needs, and the fundamental structure of one's being. This section specifically discusses the 7 cervical vertebrae. The cervical vertebrae are associated with communication and one's degree of openness to life. Naivety can make a person vulnerable in this regard. If there's a sense that people want to judge, criticize, or harm, it can lead to shutting oneself off, like an oyster.
The cervical vertebrae, particularly C1, C2, and C3, are affected when intellectual self-devaluation or perceived injustices occur. Each vertebra provides insight into the source of discomfort.
- C1, the first cervical vertebra known as the ATLAS, supports the head. Worrying excessively about a situation or person can make the head feel heavy, leading to headaches and difficulty for C1 in supporting the load. Mental rigidity, refusal to consider different perspectives, and fear of life's challenges can paralyze C1. Mental narrowness and negativity can manifest as head pain, brain discomfort, and nervous system issues. It's essential to listen to one's inner self, keep an open mind, and reduce brain activity to gain a new perspective.
- C2, the second cervical vertebra called AXIS, works closely with C1 and is linked to the main sense organs (eyes, nose, ears, mouth/tongue). Rigidity in perceiving life, reluctance to let go of old ideas, and excessive worry about the future can lead to C2 becoming rigid. Dry tears from repressed emotions can disrupt the articulation between C1 and C2. This can manifest in depression, excessive emotionality (e.g., family conflicts), anger, rebellion, and a desire for self-destruction. It's crucial to connect with emotions, express them, and allow energy to flow.
- C3, the third cervical vertebra, operates independently. If C3 is unwell, one may feel a sense of solitude and withdrawal, living in a personal bubble. Communication, both oral and sexual, may be avoided, leading to rebellion and discouragement. Time takes its toll, dreams fade, and irritability sets in. Solitude can be either beneficial for reflection or an escape from emotions and reality. The choice is individual. Ailments in C3 can affect the face, ears, and teeth.
- C4, C5, C6, the fourth, fifth, and sixth cervical vertebrae, are near the thyroid and play a role in language, voice, and communication. Disharmony in communication, whether expressing oneself or receiving others, can cause these vertebrae to react. Repressed opinions and frustrations may lead to dry, unexpressed tears. Aggressiveness may increase, and swallowing difficulties can arise. It's essential to accept every experience as an opportunity to grow, letting emotions flow rather than clinging to stubbornness and anger.
- C7, the last cervical vertebra, is influenced by one's moral beliefs and spirituality. Harmony with the laws of nature and openness to different opinions allow C7 to function well. Anger, closed-mindedness, and rigid ideologies can affect C7, impacting the hands, elbows, and arms' movement and thyroid function. Regrets related to words, actions, or thoughts can also impact C7. Intense emotions, disappointments, and fear of rejection may affect it. Learning to discern, respecting others' views, and opening oneself to different perspectives fosters freedom and better choices.




I must learn to respect the views of others even if they are different from mine.
