Commentary:
The emotions that are connected to the Kidneys are fear, fright, insecurity, and shock.
Reflecting on our life in this present day and age, as well as the social and economic
structure of many countries, allows the following statement: We live in the "water
age". This means that unemployment, or the fear of unemployment is almost a common
emotion in many places in the world. Feeling deprived of the ability to choose for
ourselves can lead to emotional stagnation and insecurity, a weakening factor for the
Kidneys. Sometimes people try to compensate their hidden fears and insecurities by
looking for "identification-patterns", by identifying themselves with material
goods.
Insecurities concerning a job or
regarding friendships and relationships, can weaken the Kidneys. Some insecurities
and fears are rather obvious, for example, the fear of heights. Others are hidden in
our subconscious and cause more subtle damage. It is important to train in awareness
and to recognize these emotional patterns. |
