Painful furs
Jungian psychologist Anne Maguire talks about how our skin shows us a way out of conflict with our own inner world.
1. In a healthy state, the skin is a highly stable and balanced organ that does not cause the slightest concern. It radiates peace and serenity. This deceptive property of the skin inspires the idea of its unshakable constancy. When the skin is healthy, it is quiet, meek and does not require other care than daily hygiene. It can be said that it resembles a well-bred domestic cat, which does not cause any trouble to its owner. For this reason, most people do not give their skin due importance.
But getting sick, the skin becomes like a mad cat, which until recently quietly purred and rubbed against the leg. In other words, when sick, the skin declares itself in the most tangible way.
2. It is obvious that the memory of the events of life does not disappear without a trace and everything ever experienced continues to exist. Jung suggested that experiences and experiences that seem to have evaporated persist in a region of the psyche adjacent to the ego, which he called the personal unconscious. The personal unconscious contains psychic contents and processes that for some reason are rejected by the individual and forced out of consciousness by him. These are disturbing thoughts, intrapersonal conflicts, moral problems or unacceptable emotions. The same fate can also await contents that were once conscious but forgotten, since they are not essential for the individual at a given time. Thus, All the products of psychic activity which do not possess sufficient energy to remain conscious are sent into the personal unconscious..
3. Among all the bodily organs The skin is the most important indicator of the mental state of a person. It is a kind of mirror in which any mental disorder is reflected. Many diseases affecting the skin, both transient and chronic, carry unique information that allows a deeper understanding of the processes occurring in the psyche. These diseases signal fears, anxieties, suppressed emotions and indicate the presence of unconscious complexes.
4. A person in a state of neurosis can be compared with an enchanted fairy-tale character, because people who are at the mercy of neurosis suffer from internal conflict and have harmful tendencies towards themselves and others. They are forced to behave much worse than they could, to act against their will under the pressure of the unconscious.
The student developed an allergy to the leather insoles of school shoes, then developed into terrible eczema of the feet (and the feet are in close contact with the outside world). In this hypersensitive way, the boy reacted to chromium, which is used to treat the skin. It was later revealed that his allergic reaction coincided with his passing to the next class, where he suffered from the tyranny of his teacher.
A middle-aged woman had an allergic reaction to expensive perfume on the first day she used it. A little later, she compared the facts and realized that these perfumes were given to her by her beloved man six months ago. They were his farewell gift, and that day he threw her in the most unworthy way. And now the woman's skin rejected his gift, as she herself could not come to terms with his action.
Another woman, who previously had a prestigious job in the fashion industry, due to unfortunate circumstances, was forced to work as a cashier in a bar located in the city center, serving boring, tired customers, longing for the end of the day. When her hands were covered in eczema, she was found to be allergic to nickel, a metal found in coins that her hands were constantly dealing with. The skin on this woman's hands rejected the cashier's job, as she herself did not realize the tenacity with which her psyche resisted her current opportunities and income.
The eczematous process, which begins with the appearance of primary vesicles, is a miniature volcanic eruption. On the scale of the human body, it has an effect equivalent to an event of planetary significance, in which gases and hot magma are released from the bowels of the earth. Based on this analogy, It is reasonable to regard eczema as an eruption of a previously suppressed unconscious mental tension..
5. Continued mental development is vital, because if we do not get rid of outdated ideas and irrelevant ways of adaptation, it threatens energy stagnation and even death. The symbol of psychic adaptation and transformation, as well as the evolution of the soul, is the shedding of the skin. Here it is impossible not to pay attention to the similarity of a person with psoriasis with a snake trying to get rid of a dead and narrow shell. If the snake fails to shed its skin, it will die. In order to live, she needs to be free. Similarly, a person’s skin affected by psoriasis indicates an unsuccessful mental adaptation.

Probably some content of the psyche, complex or archetype blocked the free flow of energy libido, which led to stagnation of psychic energy and regression. On a superficial psychological examination, it can be assumed that the person did not take an important step in time due to laziness, negligence or fear, or because he did not know at all about the need to take this step.
At a deeper level, the unconscious world of a person can tell that the disease arose because some intellectual, emotional, sexual or spiritual aspects of his life remain unused, dead during life. published
P.S. And remember, just by changing your consciousness – together we change the world!
