Vulva see also: Lips Psychosomatic and Holistic Meaning and Interpretation

The lips serve various functions, including eating, speaking, whistling, smiling, kissing, and protecting the teeth. Common lip problems include inflammation, fissures, numbness, fire, dry lips, paralysis, and cancer. From a metaphysical perspective, the upper lip is associated with internal desires, while the lower lip reflects the external environment. Biting the lips may indicate anger in response to something said. Lips can convey openness or narrow-mindedness, revealing tension, worries, sorrows, or fears through cracked or dry lips. Their fullness may correlate with joy, pleasure, and love or repression and rigidity. In women, lip issues may relate more closely to expressions of sexuality and femininity. The lower lip symbolizes the masculine, rational side, while the upper lip represents the feminine, emotional aspect. Expressing both negative and positive feelings is essential through lips, including complaints, affection, and appreciation, allowing for the expression of love toward loved ones.

Dry lips often signal fatigue, loneliness, or worries. The joy of life diminishes, making interactions less enjoyable. If the condition worsens to the point of bleeding lips, it signifies an opportunity to enhance communication with others and embrace life with more love.

Similar to the lips of the face being considered as the "doors" of the mouth, the vaginal lips represent those of the genital apparatus. Inflammation or other vulvar disorders may arise from feelings of emptiness, exhaustion, and weariness. A sense of vulnerability and impotence can lead to these conditions, accompanied by an inner joylessness. Typically, the origins of vulvar diseases are psychological. They often manifest when numerous decisions have been required, resulting in a sense of weariness and helplessness in the face of events. To address this, one should choose to feel valued and accept responsibility for their choices.

The vagina is a passage from the cervix to the vulva. It is the female reproductive organ responsible for copulation and facilitates the passage of the fetus and placenta during childbirth. Common issues related to the vagina include VAGINITIS, HERPES, TUMORS, and CANCER.
Most vaginal problems are intertwined with a woman's sexual life, often hindering her from engaging in sexual intercourse. These issues indicate a desire for a more fulfilling sex life, highlighting the need to reevaluate her perception of sexuality. It signifies feelings of being used, sexually manipulated, and undervalued. The anger experienced stems from not giving oneself permission to refuse sexual advances.
Your body signals that what you have learned or decided about sexuality may no longer serve you well. Perhaps, as a dominant woman, you feel taken advantage of during sexual encounters when you are not in control. Instead of perceiving yourself as a victim, your body prefers you to feel desired. Recognize that you may also exert control in other aspects of your life, and both you and your partner's intentions aren't necessarily malicious.
If past sexual abuse is affecting your sex life negatively, your body indicates that blocking yourself emotionally is unhelpful, as you are still haunted by past traumas. The path to freedom from these events often involves forgiveness (refer to the stages of forgiveness).
For other vaginal problems, refer to specific disease descriptions. The vagina is a muscular membrane located between the vulva and the uterus in women. Diseases linked to the vagina often stem from frustration related to the inability to engage in sexual union. This may occur due to moral reasons or the absence of a suitable partner. Embracing love in all its forms is key to self-development.

Herpes, often referred to as "fiery fires," manifests as a skin rash characterized by clusters of inflammatory vesicles. This virus infects a vast number of individuals and remains in the body indefinitely, occasionally resurfacing after periods of dormancy. The herpes simplex virus (HSV) typically presents as sores affecting the mouth, lips, or genital regions. Several causes are associated with herpes:
- Frustration stemming from unfulfilled desires, leading to feelings of powerlessness or inadequacy.
- A desire to push someone away by refusing kisses, either due to judgment or a desire to inflict punishment.
- Self-directed anger for uttering hurtful words.
- Harsh generalizations and judgments against the opposite sex, such as "all men are..."
These actions signify a desire to maintain distance from others, as herpes often affects areas crucial for personal, verbal, or emotional communication with others. Sores can indicate emotional and mental anguish since they involve soft tissue and fluids. They signal inner pain or a rash of intense inner suffering. Since we use our lips to kiss loved ones (spouses, children, parents, etc.), oral herpes may indicate a situation involving separation from someone we used to kiss. Skin-to-skin contact on the lips is disrupted for some reason, leading to a herpes outbreak. When it occurs on the nose (although less common), it may signify anger related to being perceived as "meddling" in others' affairs. Herpes outbreaks appear to correlate with stress and conflict situations, especially when we reluctantly engage in activities or go against our inner feelings (e.g., engaging in sexual encounters with someone we don't want to be with). Therefore, herpes can symbolize sorrow, weariness in life, and a lack of self-love. This virus brings up issues of shame, guilt, commitment, and self-denial, often tied to sexuality (you can explore the specific body part affected for additional insights). Stop harshly judging yourself and others. Open up to others, gain confidence in your intimate relationships, love yourself more, and let the sunshine back into your life. Be proud of who you are.
