Infected Nails

The nails are read as a sign of one's deepest inner strength and self-protection - what one uses to shape and defend one's life. A festering nail is read as that protective strength turning toxic: a difficulty facing a change in one's activity or direction, trouble positioning oneself toward a situation or person, with the small daily details becoming the whole focus of one's attention. The short explanation's "wrong thinking surrounding fighting" sits in that mishandled defence - protecting oneself in a way that turns against one. Relief is described as facing the change with one's genuine inner strength, positioning oneself clearly, and protecting oneself without festering over the struggle.

Example from the findings: the festering nail is read as one's protective inner strength turned toxic where one cannot face a change in direction.
