Nice subject, huh?

I was in the shower earlier when I felt a sudden sharp pain in my middle finger. It was gone in a second, but it hurt enough to make me gasp. Any ideas what that might have been?

My first guess is a muscle spasm, or a tendon that was slightly out of place and popped back in. Exact where was the pain? Did you have any other sensation, like a snap or a pop? Have you been doing an activity where you use your hands more than you normally do?

There was no pop or spasm. It was in the middle section - directly middle. I've been doing what I normally do. That's why it was so odd. Usually I can tell when it's directly related to a body part...er...malfunctioning. I know that the body will be flushing out past issues or whatnot and a person will feel sick or off centered. I was wondering if it could be related to that. Also, people talk about Twin Flames feeling things that happen to the other half. I thought it was something like that - feeling something happening to someone else.

That does sound odd. Perhaps it was a sudden release of a blocked energy.

Try doing acupressure on that spot and see if you feel some answering sensation anywhere else on your body.

Also, if it is the Twin Flame phenomenon you mentioned, why not try sending distant Reiki through that spot to whomever needs it?

Oooooo! Good ideas! I'll try that. :)

Next time you feel the pain try stretching it outwards by lowering the other fingers. Aim at people that bother you intensely. Helps me alot. : ) I doubt it will help the pain but emotionally you might be relieved a lil. Teehee

(I know I know..no help at all..but I couldn't resist)

Hi,

I would like to ask a few question so that I will be able to analyse in more details on your problems if possible pls answer to these following questions:
1) Which middle finger are you referring to (left or right hand)???
2) The sharp pain, happen on and off or just for a few seconds or quite long???
3) Lately, have you quarell or having misunderstanding with someone else or you are worrying about someone???

I hope to get your answer so that I may diagnosed your sickness.

Thank you.

Love & Light,

Emelia

PS:

It occurred to me that your middle finger is along the heart line energy meridian, so the sharp pain there could have something to do with an emotional release from the heart chakra.

Just a thought. :)

Could have been a spasm in a vessel or a small blood clot or piece of plaque, etc. Have you been overusing that digit lately ( HeHeHe)

peace & joy,
