Skin in general Psychosomatic and Holistic Meaning and Interpretation

A pimple rash manifests as small red areas with outgrowths on the skin's surface. The skin is my initial point of contact with the universe. The red color is tied to my emotions, and itching indicates my irritation. This rash often arises due to impatience, frustration with delays, or an underlying sense of shame and guilt. In general, it results from high stress levels related to my emotions. Just as the Earth experiences volcanic eruptions due to tension building beneath its crust, the skin displays eruptions caused by inner tensions seeking release. In such situations, I may feel upset, threatened, or even reject myself. My insecurity may lead me to withdraw, hoping that no one will approach. Unconsciously, I might use this as a means to attract attention. The affected area of my body provides clues about the source of my discomfort. By acknowledging the cause and expressing my emotions, I can free myself, leading to clearer skin.

An ulcer is a loss of tissue in the skin or mucosal lining, accompanied by deep lesions in underlying tissues that impede healing. Ulcers can occur in various parts of the body. Refer to the affected body part, noting that the afflicted person often harbors resentment, and the internal pain is challenging to heal. Only forgiveness, as detailed at the end of this book, can aid in healing these wounds effectively.
Ulcers can manifest externally on the skin (arms, legs, cornea of the eye, etc.) or internally within an organ (stomach, intestine, liver, mouth, etc.). They indicate profound fears and insecurity, revealing intense stress and feelings of being corroded, annoyed, and consumed. The location of the ulcer may provide insights into the root causes. For instance, mouth ulcers may suggest unspoken words, while stomach ulcers may reflect difficulties in digesting life's challenges. In general, ulcers signify irritation from within. Learning to let go and find inner calm is essential.

Refer to "eyes (in general)," adding that the person perceives reality as excessively offensive, seeing life through a bleak lens.

The skin, the body's external envelope, consists of the dermis and epidermis, protecting the body and in constant contact with the outside world. Skin problems are diverse and discussed throughout this book.
In general, the skin relates to how we present ourselves to the world. As our body's envelope, it reflects our self-image. Soft skin suggests seeing oneself as gentle, while dry skin may signify a harsh self-judgment. Any skin problem reflects self-consciousness, paying too much attention to others' opinions and judgments. This can prevent being true to oneself and make one susceptible to rejection, leading to a sense of integrity being compromised.
Pus accompanying a skin problem can indicate an inability to tolerate someone or something to the point that the issue is self-inflicted to escape.
Serious skin problems can be a means of pushing others away. While the skin facilitates contact, it can also isolate. Shame or a desire for radical change can lead to self-isolation.
If a skin problem causes itching, refer to that specific term.
When only the superficial skin layer is affected (e.g., VITILIGO), it reflects a separation, loss of contact, or communication breakdown. It symbolizes rejection or permanent rupture, often stemming from a desire to save others, particularly of the opposite sex.
The body part affected signifies the area of heightened intensity (e.g., facial skin represents a fear of losing prestige). Interpret the meaning based on the affected area.
The skin's visibility underscores the importance of addressing issues that bother you. To reshape your self-image, create a list of your qualities and add one each day. Seek assistance if needed.
The message here is to grant yourself the right to be human, with weaknesses, limitations, and fears, without considering yourself worthless. Your worth comes from your inner qualities and not solely from external appearances.
