Why do I experience the physical symptoms of anxiety alone and not mental ones?

Question

Name: Ishita Date of Birth: 3 June 1994 Place of Birth: Jaipur Time: 2:55 PM. 
I feel anxiety in my body, constricted chest, queasiness, shaking but in my mind, I'm blank. There's no racing thoughts or panic, just a body that's like it's being attacked. I just discovered that my Virgo moon may cause me to somaticize stress more than some. 

Is it typical to get really anxious and only exhibit it physically? Why does my body respond when my mind isn't?

Accepted Answer

Hello Ishita. Born in Jaipur with a Virgo Moon, your body is an incredibly sensitive "bio-computer."

You are "Somaticizing." Virgo rules the digestive system and the fine-tuning of the body. Your mind stays "blank" because it has effectively "pushed" the anxiety down into your tissues to keep you functioning.

*Cause:* A disconnect between the Moon (emotions) and the Ascendant (body), where the body takes the "bullet" for the mind.

*Remedy & Solution:*

● *Magnesium/Epsom Salt:* Soaking your feet in warm water with Epsom salts "pulls" the somatic tension out through the skin.
    ● *Yellow Topaz:* Helps bridge the gap between physical and mental awareness.
    ● *Action:* "Body Scanning." Spend 5 minutes daily mentally "visiting" each part of your body. If the chest is tight, simply say "I see you." Acknowledgment prevents the body from needing to "scream" with symptoms.
