Metaphor A to Z

Appendicitis

The inflammation of the appendix often necessitates its surgical removal. This problem reflects a level of fusion and co-dependence with someone, possibly our whole original family and/or our present family or relationship.

We are defending against moving forward. We feel angry as a result of the sacrifices we are making and emotions we are suppressing.

We are fending off fear and feel overwhelmed. This is calling us to embrace a new level of surrender. As we give up control, we open our minds and hearts to a new depth of feeling and inspiration.
