Valvular Disease (Faulty Heart Valves)

Faulty heart valves are read through the heart as the organ of love, the valves that govern love's flow failing. The pattern is read as love's flow mis-regulated by a long love-wound: a belief that one is not loved or worthy of love, a heart hardened by old hurts, so that giving and receiving love no longer move cleanly. The short explanation's "excessive emotional and mental stress" is that strained, mis-regulated flow of love. Relief is described as letting love move freely through the heart again - received and given without being earned - and softening the old wounds that stiffened the valves.

(Note: this is a metaphysical interpretation; valvular disease requires medical care.)

Example from the findings: faulty valves are read as love's flow mis-regulated in a heart that believes it is unloved.
