Possible Buried Beliefs
- “My body isn't safe.”
- “If I open myself, I'll be hurt.”
Healing Notes
Pain during intercourse may reflect unresolved sexual trauma, fear of surrender, or threats to identity and safety. GNM associates it with forced-contact or self-worth conflicts. Spiritually, it may represent a wounded feminine seeking protection and permission to heal.
