…about issue Number 20, Spring 1998 of The Main Central from which we have extracted information from three teachers concerning their experience of Safety Energy Lock 17.

I strongly recommend that students of Jin Shin Jyutsu obtain a copy of this particular newsletter from http://www.jsjinc.net because there is a letter from Haruki Kato that I consider very important. There is also an article “Attitude is Everything” and another entitled “What a Difference an Hour Can Make”; both worthwhile reads.

I’m also thinking about the Depth Qualities of SEL 17. We know from the Jin Shin Jyutsu post today that it is 3rd Depth along with SEL 16, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22. It is middle finger with an attitude of anger. (On another level, 17 is the lateral side of the ring finger which is 2nd Depth and the attitude is sadness or grief. So we need always remember that we have many relationships/understandings of the energy in our container [body] which is a constantly spiraling movement flowing in different patterns in our being bringing new and regenerated health and harmony from our own personal 6th Depth “blueprint”.)

The Depth Quality of 17 includes the element wood, the function blood, the stress of reading, the project is eyes and the organs in this level are Liver and Gall Bladder. 17 has relationship with cervical vertebra 2, the astrological sign is Aquarius, the planet is Jupiter, the number is 8 and the color is green. The musical tone is C, the day of the week is Thursday, the season is Spring, the direction is East, the metal is tin, the mineral is sapphire, the taste is sour, the smell is rancid and the “quickie” is 14.

You can refresh your memory of where the SELs are located on the body by opening the “Safety Energy Locks” category.

Let’s hold our 14’s for fun!
