Nails represent our vitality, the state of our vital energy.
They express the feeling of protection that we experience from the people around us and from the various events in life.
Nails are symbols of defense, to defend ourselves “with tooth and nail” and, of attack, to be able to “scratch” or attack something or someone.
To bite nails: What can I achieve by not having nails? What am I able to do if I have my nails?
When I bite my nails or eat the hangnails around them, it means that I am refraining from hurting my father, from “scratching”, from attacking, from killing or from taking revenge on my father, since I consider that he does not protect me Enough for my needs.
I live with hidden hatred and I seek to hurt, but biting my nails prevents me from doing it because it is my father, my mother and I must love them.
“I refrain from hurting my father.”
I get pissed off for not feeling protected when it comes to the details of my daily life. I think I have to do everything alone because I don’t have anyone to help me, especially in the details of my common life.
Every time I relive this lack of protection with my father or indirectly with another person, I bite my nails, which gives me security and alleviates my anguish.
“I am unprotected, frustrated.” “I eat myself.”
Nail biting can also indicate a deep insecurity of not feeling capable of being or doing what is expected of me.
When we feel frustrated or limited and life forces us to submit or when we cannot use them as we want because we are not in a position to defend ourselves, express our anger and demand our needs.
In short, biting your nails can denote a refusal to grow up and assume one’s own responsibilities.
By biting my nails I unload aggression on myself, it is a way of gnawing on myself.
Ingrown toenail: Fragment of a nail that digs into the flesh due to a lateral growth.
An ingrown toenail tells me that I feel guilty in the face of a new situation that arises in life.
If you are in a talk to me about a circumstance referring to my daily life.
When it comes to a toenail, it expresses an emotional conflict of guilt related to a decision that I must make and that will affect me in the future.
I feel guilty because, on the one hand, I know and feel that I should take it, and on the other, I see that it is wrong for me to do such-and-such that may annoy others.
“I have no right to advance”, “I feel guilty because my progress annoys or worries those around me”, “I feel guilty for wanting to be the best or go further”.
In the same way, when a nail becomes ingrown, biologically and unconsciously, I am manufacturing more “claws”, more weapons to protect myself and to be able to defend myself better.
But it gets embedded in my flesh because somehow I am forbidden to defend myself or attack, that is why I inhibit my aggressiveness.
“I do not allow myself to be aggressive, I turn my aggressiveness against myself”
If it is located in the hands, it indicates a conflict related to work, with what I do with my hands and also has to do with my father (real or symbolic).
If it manifests itself in the , it expresses a conflict related to my mother (real or symbolic) or the family. “I need weapons to defend myself from my mother but I hold back, I cannot oppose or attack her”
When there is an infection, it alerts me to something dirty.
I have the right to choose my own path in life and feel happy with my decisions.
Brittle nails: They inform me that I am feeling helpless regarding the way to express my aggressiveness. “It is forbidden to remove the claws”
Likewise, nails that break easily show me that I feel without energy, tired, discouraged, what I do in life does not stimulate me.
They can also break when I feel guilty for having made a mistake, for not being perfect in something I am doing or did.
“I feel guilty for not being perfect”
I need to understand that I always try to do things to the best of my ability and therefore I must learn to accept myself as I am.
Onychomycosis: (nail fungus). When the nail has fungus, it indicates that I am experiencing a “rotten”, “rotten” situation with respect to someone close to me (mother, father, brother, partner, etc.) who takes advantage of me, exploits me and constantly attacks me .
This means that, little by little, my strength and vitality are running out.
This state of overload and abuse has occurred because I have not known how to defend myself or I have not been aware of the limits of my territory, which encourages others to take advantage of me.
on the big toe nails(for right-handers, left-handers backwards):
Right foot, tells me about a vital devaluation regarding my mother. “My mother did not love me or, my mother does ugly things”
Left foot: the same meaning but related to a symbolic mother, it can be a grandmother, an aunt, a father with a feminine program, etc.
It is absolutely necessary that we walk away and break the relationship with that person who constantly attacks us.
We need to understand that we are valuable and learn to love ourselves.
