Definition: Structure that joins the coccyx with the skull in a flexible structure made up of 26 vertebrae separated by intervertebral discs and the sacrum. Inside is the spinal cord.
Technical: 3rd Embryonic Stage. Conflict of central devaluation of the personality.
Biological sense: The spine is the support of my body (thorax) and head. It keeps us upright and allows us mobility and flexibility. It is the central “column”, our “pillar” of support, or the continuity of “my foundations”. It also protects the spinal cord that distributes nerve communication throughout the body.
Conflict: Central personality devaluation. In relation to my life, what I think, what I do, how I interact, my communication with others… Our structure, the foundations of my daily life6. In relation to the organ or organs that correspond to that vertebra.
Stress regarding what I want to do, my projects.
“Who I am?«. «What I’m going to do with my life?«. «What will become of my life?«.
It represents our flexibility and our resistance to the events of life, our ability to absorb blows.
It is one of the most important devaluations because it implies my verticality. Verticality is linked to the human being, it symbolizes getting closer to God (God in me).

VERTEBRAL COLUMN (in general) (see also: BACK)
According to the classification made in the West, there are 33 vertebrae starting at the top, that is: 7 cervical (Cervical: comes from the Latin cerebro which means “nape”), rather thin, 12 dorsal (Dorsal: comes from the Latin dorsum which means say “back” ), rather thick, 5 lumbar (Lumbar: comes from the Latin lumbus which means “kidney”. ), stronger, 5 sacred (Sacred: this word refers to what is inviolable or to what imposes on us great respect. In this case, it would be the place where the energy of the Kundalini would come from, this spiritual energy that comes out of the lower part of the spine and goes up to the top of the head, to lead to enlightenment). welded, forming a triangle downwards, 4 coccygium, welded and atrophied.
The spine, like the pillar of a construction, represents support, protection and resistance. Therefore, the spine supports me and protects me in all situations of my life. It is my physical and inner pillar. Without her, I collapse. The spine also symbolizes my most fundamental and spiritual energy. It represents my flexibility and my resistance to the different events of my life. Spinal deviations (scoliosis, lordosis, etc.) are linked to the deep part of my entire energy system. During a blockage, physical pains appear. Feelings of helplessness, a weight that is too heavy to carry, an affective or unsatisfied emotional need, etc., make me feel attacked in my solidity and my resistance. I have the feeling that I am the pillar within my family, my work and in relation to any situation or organization in which I am involved. What would happen to others if you were not here? Would everything collapse?
The spine is linked to all the different aspects of my being through the skeleton, through the central nervous system and through the central blood supply.
Every thought, feeling, situation, response and sensation is recorded in the spinal column as in the corresponding relevant implied parts of the body.
I look at the affected region and identify the cause of the blockage. The reason does not matter, I agree to remain open to the cause and the integration is more harmonious.
I rebuild the new person I want to be.
VERTEBRAL COLUMN (deviation of the …) (in general). A spinal deviation mainly symbolizes a resistance to fully living my life. The way I behave in life, my difficulty in letting life hold me and letting go of old ideas will be manifested by a deviation of the spine that will lean to the side, forwards, or backwards… I decide to assume and maintain myself ” right” to face life, with confidence and determination.
VERTEBRAL COLUMN (deviation of …) LORDOSIS Lordosis is a physiological curvature of the spine that hollows forward. I have difficulty holding myself upright because I am ashamed of who I am, I don’t love myself. I frequently submit to my father or to what authority represents for me, because I undervalue myself in front of him, I feel inferior to him. I feel crushed by others, I have very little confidence in myself and I am unable to express my ideas and opinions.
I am boiling inside and this anger eats me. I must learn to love myself. I agree to take my place because everyone has a role to play in the universe. I learn to express my ideas and opinions freely and I feel better about myself.
VERTEBRAL COLUMN (deviation of …): SCOLIOSIS. Scoliosis is a lateral deviation of the spine. When it affects me, I have the feeling of carrying a very heavy load on my shoulders. Since this surpasses any hope of realization, I experience impotence and despair. My responsibilities scare me, I am undecided in my orientation. Energy is blocked and scoliosis is its physical manifestation. This often occurs in adolescence: as I am in search of an identity, too old to be a child and too young to be an adult, life and responsibilities seem enormous. I will have a tendency to compare myself to my brothers, sisters, cousins and cousins. Since I often have the impression that they are better than me, I will devalue myself and this will be expressed by scoliosis. Scoliosis is thus linked to a desire to flee a situation or someone.
I check what happens in my life that prevents me from feeling good. I accept living in the present, that is, one day at a time. I become aware of being in the school of life and of living in harmony with what surrounds me. I find joy and, every day, I understand that I have the strength and the ability to respond to the challenge!
VERTEBRAL COLUMN – DISPLACED DISC. (see also: BACK, DISLOCATION) Linked to the spine (the support of my body), the displaced disc reveals that I do not feel supported.
I don’t feel up to it, I lack confidence in myself. I am aware that every time I looked for an answer or support, I found confirmation of what I already knew or felt. I agree to listen to my inner voice that is always here to support and guide me. I learn to trust myself and I discover all the strength
that is in me and the happiness that this brings me to stand on my feet, free, without fear. I am supported in everything I undertake.

SPINE
What is it?: The vertebral column, dorsal spine or rachis is a complex, articulated and resistant osteofibrocartilaginous structure, in the form of a longitudinal stem, which constitutes the posterior and inferior portion of the axial skeleton. The vertebral column is an organ1 located (in its greatest extension) in the middle and posterior part of the trunk, and it goes from the head (which it supports), passing through the neck and back, to the pelvis to which it gives medium.
What emotional conflict am I experiencing?: Symbolically, the spine and all the bones of the body in general represent family support, the security we have when we have family, their support.
In the case of the spine, having a problem with it means that we feel devalued, without family support, without family help, without family recognition.
It is a devaluation that occurs slowly, event after family event, year after year, until the bones or vertebrae can no longer take it.
The spine, as a set of vertebrae, also represents our flexibility to withstand “the blows” of life.
Now, let’s analyze each set of vertebrae and, in turn, each one of them, to be more clear about what they mean:
CERVICAL VERTEBRAE
The cervical vertebrae represent the severity or simplicity of the emotional conflicts that we experience. The degree of devaluation that we are feeling, but, above all, the way in which we hide or express our emotions. The cervical vertebrae, a lot are related to saying and doing or vice versa.
C1 VERTEBRA / ATLAS:
It is related to the head, scalp, head bones, brain, inner and middle ear, pituitary gland, pineal gland, and sympathetic nervous system.
– If this vertebra hurts on my right side, I necessarily have a conflict of not feeling “heard” by my family (partner, children, parents, siblings, etc).
– Nobody listens to me.
– Nobody listens to me. They don’t listen to my advice.
If this vertebra hurts on my left side, I necessarily have a conflict of not feeling heard in the social and work environment (boss, co-workers, friends, neighbors, etc.)
– Nobody listens to me.
– Nobody listens to me. They don’t listen to my advice.
C1+C2 VERTEBRA:
When I have discomfort in both vertebrae at the same time (C1 and C2), I am necessarily experiencing a conflict of having lost a child, real or symbolically. It is both a real and physical loss, as well as a loss related to silence, distance, etc.
– My son went to live far away and is no longer with me. – My son is dead. – That one, whom I considered as a son, he no longer talks to me or looks for me.
C2 VERTEBRA / AXIS:
The C2 vertebra is related to the nasal and paranasal sinuses, the forehead, the tongue, the eyes, the optic nerve and the auditory nerve.
If I have problems in the C2 vertebra, I am necessarily experiencing a conflict
Related to doubts within my way of thinking. I have the feeling of being confused, of not knowing which way to go or what decision to make due to the large amount of different information that I have. On television they say that I should do such and such, but my mom says that I should do such and such and I would like to do such and such. Basically it is a conflict of “Information integration”.
Another conflict that I may be experiencing is related to the frustration of a family member who has not been able to run away from home, perhaps me? Someone has wanted to free themselves, make their life, become independent and out of fear, confusion, for a thousand reasons, they have not done so. Or perhaps, just the opposite, someone in the family has been disowned, kicked out, ignored, kicked out of the house or from the clan.
If I am Biologically Right-handed: I am experiencing a resentment towards my family, a grudge against my family or I feel bitter with the family life that I lead.
If I am a Biological Lefty: I am experiencing a resentment towards my social or work circle, a grudge against my social or work circle or I feel bitter with the family social or work life that I lead.
C2+C3 VERTEBRA:
If I present a problem in these two…
