contents In this paper, we consider the action of the Goeritz group $\mathcal G_p$ for the genus two Heegaard splitting of the lens space $L(p,1)$ with $p\ge 2$ on the homology of the Heegaard surface. We describe the action in terms of matrices in $GL(4, \mathbb Z)$, and provide homology and homotopy obstructions for when two curves in the Heegaard surface are Goeritz equivalent.
