Your Body Is Speaking
The armpit is one of the most hidden areas of your body. You rarely show it. You seldom think about it. And yet it is a junction point — lymphatic vessels converge there, sensitive nerve strands run through it, your body produces sweat there that regulates temperature. The armpit is the place where the inside reaches the outside: what you secrete, what you excrete, what is fermenting beneath the surface.
When the armpit hurts, becomes inflamed, swollen, or irritated, your body is showing you something connected to what is hidden: to what you are holding back, even though it wants out. Or to what you are pushing outward, even though it does not match your nature.
Armpit complaints are the signal of a person standing in the tension between what lives inside them and what they show of it.
