The back of the neck is part of the throat chakra.. spiritual
communication, etc. So, Goddess speaks and you are too resistant/stubborn,
so next your third eye goes off as She tries to show you, and then you get
a headache.. ?
The pineal is in the center of your head.. associated with the third
eye, and also the root source of that sensation between your eyes.. the
third eye is centered in the pineal, but it also covers an area that
extends to the tip of your nose.. those sinus sensations someone mentioned.
There is an area at the back of your sinuses, the wall there that is a
receptor for emotional energy.

Actually, a lot of normal cliche expressions are body-language. That is
how the body talks, in the metaphor language of cliches and truisms. A
stiff neck is symbolic of stubborness and resistance whether it is people
or jackasses. Like, when we say someone is a pain in the neck because they
are not compliant.

Yeah.. that is like what I wrote, about experiencing a vibrational
increase where suddenly spiritual folks and synchronicities start popping
up everywhere.

I still get it, especially when I am doing healing work. Fires of
transmutation. Occasionally I do InnerSun Tummo fire initiations, to wake
the healing fires of clear light within someone.

Yep, emotional release. Lovely.

Yes.. most stress comes more from old memories of pain causing fear of
the future, than as a reaction to events themselves. The events simply push
the old buttons, so that you can know the stuff is there and surrender it.

Before awakening, people are mostly prana-fired.. Sun/sky energy
flowing downwards to the Earth. K-fire goes up, so you need to allow stuff
to go with the flow... out your crown.
Now that you are awakened, you may want to alter your meditation to
include earth energy as well as sky... try the grounding mediation url at
the bottom of this page. Also, consider thinking of your energy as clear
light.. like a heat shimmer, instead of white light... and quit projecting
energy. Your good intentioned prayers are getting you into karmic
entanglements and energy arguments. Like when you tell someone "Have a
nice day" and they respond, "You are not my boss, so quit trying to tell me
what to do."

Hmm.. that is an essay I have written many times, in many places... So
for an extended explanation, I'll refer you to two documents I have put in
the K-list shared files, on healing and karma. Here is a snippet from one:
I think of Karma as the emotional content of memories. Karma in action is
re-acting to previous memory experience. Re-acting as opposed to
responding. The expression, "once burnt, twice shy" describes it well. The
negative emotional memory of pain from the past, causes a reaction in the
now. Just as I wrote about perceptions; why some see the glass half full
and others see a glass half empty. When these emotional memories are
cleared, there is simply a glass with some liquid in it, and no need to
make judgments. How you respond to the glass will depend entirely on the
needs of the now, not on programmed re-actions from the past.
