Part A. Understanding the sub-title: The Lost and Sacred Art of Symbolic Interpretation of Signs and Symptoms

Before delving into the book’s content, it is essential to gain a clear understanding of the sub-title, The lost and sacred art of symbolic interpretation of signs and symptoms. This is quite a mouthful, and truth be told, it was suggested that this be excluded as part of the title because of its length and the difficulty in determining exactly what is meant by this statement.

Notwithstanding, the subtitle remains because it holds so much meaning and power. So, I will detail here its meaning because it is both powerful and pivotal in your own personal journey to understanding the hidden messages and meanings behind the signs and symptoms you experience.

LOST AND SACRED

Let me begin with the lost and sacred nature of interpreting signs and symptoms.

We have become a very mechanistic society. We see the body much like a machine, operating independently of mind, spirit and soul. The mechanistic view sees the body as a machine to be fixed, and the world itself as a resource to be mined, excavated and developed for our advantage.

This mechanistic view is not how we have always operated. In fact, far from it. The majority of communities and societies in recorded history, and across the planet, have been vitalistic. That is, recognising the subtle influences, both of our own beings and that of the planet. The mechanistic model does not consider the energetic influence or the unseen aspect of our true nature. As a result, much of what we understand about how our bodies—and how experiences in our lives—are interconnected and are non-physical in nature has been lost.

In fact, what we have always known and understood about the body has become lost in this mechanistic view. That is why it is a lost and sacred art of symbolic interpretation of signs and symptoms. What we have always known, what has been passed down from generation to generation—the truths and understandings that have come with awareness and interpretation of the wisdom of our own inner world—has been lost and replaced by a model that sees the body as separate from the mind, that sees symptoms as problems to be treated, and that sees microbes, such as bacteria and viruses, as the cause of disease, rather than understanding the true nature of why conditions present themselves.

What you are going to learn in this book has been lost to this generation and in that regard, it becomes a revelation.

It is also sacred information. This information has always been held as the highest and most important understanding in how we can live fully and completely due to our relationship to this wisdom. The wisdom keeper of every generation safe-guarded this knowledge: the immutable truths of how the body worked—and healed.

This information is detailed in the sacred texts of all the religions of the world. Understanding symbolism has been held as sacred in all cultures, an expression of the deepest and most profound wisdoms.

Truly, the information you are about to uncover has been both lost in modern times, though has always been held as sacred. It is a lost and sacred wisdom, an excellent element of understanding the truth of the human experience.

ART

Now, let me explore interpreting symbolism as an art. As with any discipline, art requires study; it requires your personal perspective to be tuned to that which is before you. It requires responding to your own personal experience with understanding. It requires the nuances of your own personal investment in uncovering your individual messages.

It is a lost and sacred art to be able to interpret the symbolic messages behind the signs and symptoms you present with. It is not a scientific or mechanistic view of you as a client. It is a vitalistic, artistic process of interpretation.

While I discuss signs and symptoms later in detail, signs represent the objective evidence of a condition perceptible to an examining practitioner, while a symptom is subjective evidence of the condition perceived by you as the client. In essence, signs are those things that can be seen, while symptoms are those things that you tell the practitioner you are experiencing.

For example, raised blood pressure is a sign. It is an objective, observable, measurable and perceptible to an examining practitioner, while chest pain is a symptom. The chest pain is not visible, but as the client you can tell the practitioner you are experiencing this pain.

In this way, the lost and sacred art of symbolic interpretation of signs and symptoms is the ability to understand, with wisdom and sensitivity, the meaning behind—and therefore the causes for—the signs and symptoms a person presents with. It is seeing beyond the conditions or diagnosis a person presents with to the message behind those experiences. It is the precursor to growth and wisdom, to understanding and empowerment.
