Intro
Although this might seem like a minor topic, it is one that I wanted to briefly write about, as it can be confusing for people.
Despite the fact that doing work on the soul and body are positive actions, it is possible and likely to encounter negativity en route to the positive conclusion. We can see this when our spiritual transformations can result in backlash and we also see this when the physical body is physically pushed hard with empowering activities, resulting in feelings of being sick.
Now, what is important is being aware that these events are backlash due to our own input, rather than some sort of negativity being directed at us from an external source. By knowing the source of this, you can avoid panic or confusion, such as assuming you have caught a real illness, or have been cursed, or something. Furthermore, we can implement ways to mitigate backlash.
Problem
Looking at what happens when someone is sick from yoga, we must first understand the initial actions done by yoga or other transformative activities. Speaking generally, we know that these practices strongly manipulate our energies, often energizing or balancing various parts of the body and nadis. See more on this, by HPS Lydia: “But What Does Yoga Actually Do?”
For many people, this can be the first time this has happened in any significant degree, perhaps for years or even a lifetime.
Therefore, what happens is the work done upon the tissues of the body results in a release of toxins, which is good, but because it is happening to at a new, higher degree for the body, this creates a conditional overload of toxins while they are being processed out. While the end state is a body that has less toxins, the temporary state is one where toxins are overloading the detoxification systems of the body.
Conventional medical wisdom can get confused regarding this process, as they do not grasp the energy state of the soul or body, falsely assuming we all have equal energy levels at all times. I had read one source on toxin release after deep tissue massage, and they were unable to reconcile the supposed benefits of massage with the "pseudoscientific" idea of toxin release, instead leaving the reader in a confused gray zone. In reality, the body's detox pathways are not operating equally or sufficiently at all times, hence why buildups of inflammation or fat occur in people.
As a source to the new model of detoxification, and for more info, please read this article.
Looking at "Step 0", and tracing to "Step 7" of this source, we can see that the toxins must go through many steps of removal, from their origin in the tissue all the way to elimination through the urine, as one example. If the body is in a weakened state and does not have the energy for every step to occur without limitation, then a bottleneck occurs and negative health symptoms would show.

Solution
This also shows that the solution to this problem involves directing more energy at the problem. This can happen over time, as the ongoing practice of the activity in question eventually results in a higher total energy state of the body, but this can lead to unnecessary suffering until then. Alternatively, we can specifically and immediately direct energy to more quickly resolve the symptoms:
For those who know TCM and are referencing the above information, we know that acupoints like Liver 3 or Large Intestine 4 are common points which can help direct physical energy to these organs to speed up their efforts. With spiritual solutions, we can raise and direct solar energy at the problem, visualizing or imagining the energy amplifying the removal process, in a fully healthy way.
It is also worth remembering how both yin and yang relate to detoxification, but each play a separate role. Looking at the role of the stomach and solar fire, we can see how it removes phlegm and dampness pathogens, like fat and plaque. Mars helps with blood pressure, aiding other organs with driving force to complete their tasks, also powering the immune system. Venus rules parts of the kidneys and skin, clearing out redness and inflammation. The Moon rules fluids and the intestines, which also cools heat through lubrication, as well as elimination through the feces.
Knowing this, we can pick specific energies to aid our health, based on the any existing imbalances we may be facing. Sowilo and the Sun can sustain both yin or yang processes; Thurisaz energy would be the best for driving strong yang activity. Laguz is a yin-based purifier like Neptune, dissolving toxins. Berkano is similar, but is perhaps more involved with generating fluids, due to the lunar relation, and so on.
This physical phenomenon also extends to the cleanliness of the soul, including the conditional overloads of "toxins" which can accumulate as one drives a strong karmic change with their soul. Doing heavy work on one's Venusian energies, for example, can stimulate lots of dirt to release from the heart chakra or other related areas, as the underlying patterns and nadis of the body are changed. In this case, we must also increase our cleaning to compensate, along with general protection, and raise more energy to support all of this.
Conclusions and Reflections on Spiritual Purity
Now looking broadly, we can see that as we advance, we must purge the negative. At a lower energy state, we likely had to tolerate certain elements of negativity, but as we move forward we must change to reach a higher state, as certain negativity cannot exist at higher levels. The transition between states of advancement would "demand" purity inherently, or alternatively a pure state of soul would be more receptive to positive change.
Although there are other meanings, I believe this quote of Satan by HPS Maxine to be relevant, showing a clear correlation with purity and advancement:
When we evaluate purity on a spiritual level, this is done by all metrics, which might differ by how we view this in the physical world. In the material world, we can visually see dirt, but we cannot always easily see "emotional" dirt, for example, nor can we see the "dirt" which arises from a bad social policy, unless we are trained and sensitive to evaluation of this.
This is why toxins are released seemingly "by default" when we affirm transformative changes to our soul, or when we manipulate the body into a higher energy state, or higher level of existence. On the inverse of this, this is also why negative patterns of existence naturally lead to a buildup of toxins, which we can perceive and have natural disgust towards. The Pisces and Virgo zodiac "dimension" of reality is what pertains to our sensing and actions regarding purity and the procedures involved in achieving this.
As Venus is exalted in Pisces and as Neptune is ruled by Pisces, I believe this demonstrates how purity is both an ideal end state, but also sets the stage for future growth, as both Neptune and Venus are "areas" in which energy can easily gather or be attracted to, leading to a higher state of power. Conversely dirty environments or people appear as demented or deranged, stimulating disgust and avoidance behaviors. Someone with Neptunian influence would likely have a lower tolerance threshold, as they are more sensitive to this. Personally, I believe this is one reason why Neptune gain its "escapist" stereotypes, as the person seeks to escape perceived negativity or stress.
AI-generated visual of "purity".
As Neptune/Pisces is able to sense the "purity" of something, this extends not just to visually-seen dirt, but to the "dirt" which arises from consequences of negative actions. Through the divination powers of Neptune, one can judge the outcome of something, and how much dirt may arise from a pattern of behavior. Again, we can see how this can create someone who is overly-sensitive or hypochondriac, as they see a "fuller manifestation" of what is to come. However, this is one way how we are able to judge the outcome of ourselves, avoiding negativity before it has a chance to appear.
Below I include more references to the relationship of purity and spiritual advancement.
Anyway, hopefully this helps, as it was actually a source of confusion with myself when I first started on this path. I had made it worse by the fact that I would plan for myself to do lots of yoga as soon as I could, leading to feeling bedridden with detoxification sickness for 1 or 2 hours. If I had known of ways to counter this, I would have saved a lot of time.
