Breast Cancer - Body Symbology

What is BREAST CANCER?

Cancer in general refers to the unregulated cellular growth level. In cancerous growth, there is a malfunctioning check and balance system of growth and destruction at the molecular level followed by changes at the cellular level. The failure of the check and balance causes proliferation of the inappropriate development of cancer cells.

These are immature cells that have little opportunity to grow and mature to purposeful adult cells. Thus, they (i.e. cancer cells) “suck” the system (physical body) of the limited life force within the body.

Thereby, causing the person to be fatigue, weak and "not themselves" as the initial vague presenting symptoms of the pre-cancerous patient.

In light of this simple explanation of cancer presentation, what specifically is the function of the female breast as it relates to body symbology?

First, let’s evaluate the function and purpose of the breast. The purpose of the female breast from the time of antiquity is the supplying of nourishment to the very young. The process of giving to the very young is a noble obligation as a nurturing mother. It is her purpose and is expected to perform this sometimes unappreciated deed for the next generation to survive and procreate again. In order for her to feel worthiness as a mother, her nurturing and the giving of her milk must count for something.

If her nurturing does not count for anything, and she feels unappreciated, unloved, and not contributing to her “family’s” growth and well being, she will breakdown slowly. The insidious breakdown will likely occur first at the molecular level, then cellular level, followed by tissue level, and manifest itself in the organ system of the breast.

Thus, the body symbology working notion of breast cancer is the unappreciated dutiful experiences a mother feels after giving of herself and feeling her "milk" (i.e. nurturing) accounts for nothing.

Another related concept of cancer is the issue of coincidences associated with other events. Is the coincidences (or the collection of related data) or events that highly coorelate with certain patterns in one’s life? For example, consider the many studies suggesting that over 70% of breast cancer occurs in the right breast. Another fact is over 60% of the cancer patients have cancer of both breasts and is married to an alcoholic husband. Is the cancer of the breast related to someone who cares for an adult man and is sick and tired of taking care of a man? There's a coincidence of having over 60% of breast cancer patient with bilateral breast cancer who are married to an alcoholic husband. Is this just data or is it also a coincidence? Is this an event a statistical coincidence? Is this not reality? If you dig deep down into the patients' psyche, there are more important questions that need to be asked. In the process of interpreting breast cancer using body symbology, there’s a realization that the process of "getting" breast cancer is more important than the statistical data of breast cancer itself. Yes, each body part has a meaning and yes each body part has a function. Things that function has meaning. By inference, if something has a function, it already has a reason for being. As a culture, we will attach additional meanings that match that function. Breast as a functional organ is to give nourishment, nurturing, and love to others; if the giving is not appreciated, the cancer (or the chaotic energy) begins its parasitic relationship onto the body.

Here is a typical theme of cancer patients’ life. They feel tired, somewhat not themselves. They seek medical help; run some tests, and discover they have a lump in their breast. Further investigations with biopsy show malignancy. Mastectomy scheduled and disfiguring surgery performed. Sometimes the cancer metastasizes to other organs. If so, the patient usually die shortly thereafter.

In the women with breast cancer, the women’s nurturing, especially to a grown man, doesn’t seem to amount to much. They long for a meaningful life where their service to the grown man has significance. The worst part is that all the nursing in the world doesn’t raise the adult alcoholic. There’s deep resentment behind that. There’s inadequacy in nursing a man. The metaphor is that their milk counts for nothing. Their love is not pure enough; not stronger enough; and not good enough. There’s deep inadequacy within the woman. There is an underlining core of resentment against the grown alcoholic man for their unappreciated effort.

Cancer seems to feed on resentment better than anything else. If you could put resentment in a petri dish, you can grow any kind of cancer. You can keep cancer alive forever.

If you were to have cancer, how would you deal with it in addition to traditional allopathic medicine? On the psychic level, it works best with kindness, forgiveness, love, and touch. Visualization and becoming in touch with spirituality (not by being more religious) may enhance one's recovery rate from cancer. Sometimes, in the medical profession, the doctors sits across the desk and gives instructions to the patient about their problems. This results in a disconnect with their patient. When there is patient-doctor disconnect, the doctor is merely functioning in the capacity of a licensed medical pharmaceutical dispenser without the benefit of being a healer.

On the Karmic level, the etiology of cancer has consequences dating back to the time of antiquity. There are numberous past life negative karmic events needing accountibility and to settled out the "scores" in this lifetime. If done genuinely and sincerely, the cancer can not take hold from the person and will subsequently starve itself of its nourishments (i.e resentment, anger, vengence, etc.). These negative karmic events may have happened a long, long, time ago and not directly related to you. Don't take it personally! Moreover, the offender may have been a family member, someone of the same village, culture, or race. No one knows for certain the chain of events and the price of negative karma. However, a few will acknowledged that there's some inferences regarding the karmic level and its correlation with physical health. Therefore, the old saying "what we sow, we reap" is a simple metaphor describing the Karmic energy phenomenom.

I hope I have share with you the body symbology associated with breast cancer. If you have any symptoms related to your breast, I highly encourage you seek medical evaluation immediately. It may save your life and prevent you from receiving a disfiguring mastectomy surgury.
