ARTICULATIONS OR JOINTS: emotional and spiritual meaning

by | Nov 14, 2026 | Diseases of the MUSCULOSKELETAL SYSTEM

 

Joints pain represents an emotional conflict linked to a sense of devaluation and a lack of flexibility regarding life’s changes or movements.

Since the biological function of joints is to enable movement, any symptoms in them suggest an internal contradiction between what you feel you must do and what you truly wish to do.

Emotional conflicts associated with the joints:

First, a conflict involving a sense of devaluation in one’s actions.

For example, feeling that you are not good enough, fast enough, or capable enough in the tasks you perform (at work, in sports, or within the family), or feeling criticized by those around you. It is the feeling that “I don’t measure up” or “I am not worth enough.”

The biological unconscious weakens a joint when a person feels incapable.

Second, a contradiction regarding direction: the feeling that “I am forced to…”

This occurs when you feel compelled to take a specific action, go to a certain place, or remain in a situation from which you cannot escape due to moral, familial, or financial obligations.

The conflict of rigidity and inflexibility (resistance to change):

When the mind becomes rigid, the body somatizes this lack of flexibility.

For example, when someone finds it extremely difficult to accept the rules imposed by an authority figure (such as a boss, a parent, or the State), or struggles to compromise during an argument.

This also occurs when a person insists on maintaining very strict intellectual or moral stances—adopting an attitude of “I would rather break than bend” or “I will never give in.”

It may also arise when an individual refuses to adapt to new technologies, new ways of working, or new dynamics within a relationship.

“The loss of space or territory can also affect the joints”:

For example, when a person feels that their physical space or their role of authority is being taken away—such as thinking, “I’m being cornered,” “I no longer have room to move here,” or “I feel like I’m being pushed out of my responsibilities (at work or at home) and I can’t defend myself.”

Likewise, joints can be affected by conflicts related to “performance and aging.”

This is very common as a person gets older, following retirement, or during major life transitions (such as when children leave home)—situations where an individual may feel that their body no longer responds as it once did, or that their physical movements are no longer useful to the “clan.”

They might think, “I’m not the person I used to be,” “My body is no longer capable of competing or working,” or “It makes me angry to have to depend on others just to move around.”

This creates a vicious cycle: the sense of diminished self-worth damages the joint, and the resulting injury further reinforces that diminished sense of self-worth.

To identify the root of the conflict, it is helpful to recall the exact moment the pain began and ask yourself:

What was happening in my life just before the discomfort appeared?

If the joint could speak, what would it say? (For instance: “I don’t want to go,” “I don’t want to give in,” or “I have to carry this burden”?)

Synovial effusion: when this symptom manifests it wants to tell me that I am experiencing a change that I do not accept, or a new project that I do not want to start or that I do not want to carry out, perhaps, a path, a direction that I do not want to take, etc.

Unconsciously I am “manufacturing” more lubricant to be “more flexible”, because whatever the activity I do not want to do it and, furthermore, I feel unprotected. “I want to be more acceptable”, “I would like to have a little more sweetness in my submission, please”, “I agree to submit, but sweetly”

If it is about the knee: he tells me that, “I refuse to submit”, “I submit too much”

When it affects the wrist: it informs me about, “It’s a lot of work”, “I don’t like this job”, “I do everything”

If I experience discomfort in my elbow, it points to a sense of devaluation at work, a lack of support in that environment, or perhaps a change of job. “I resist losing.”

When the person affected in the joints is a person under 14 years of age, it is necessary to find out if there was a member of the clan who had an accident and was run over and with whom he has an affinity, for example, he bears the same name or was born in the same month.
