Metaphor A to Z

Back

Our back is the posterior region of the trunk of the body from the neck to pelvis. Our back speaks of all that is behind us, representing the past that we have moved through.

Back problems are a sign that we are ‘backing up,’ or resisting because we feel no backup or support. We are trying to move backwards because of some reluctance, doubt or fear.

Back problems also mean that we are ‘backed up’ with anger, ‘getting back at’ someone with revenge or feeling as if we are ‘carrying it all on our back’ through overwhelming sacrifice.

Serious back problems usually reflect unconscious level issues. We are holding back out of fear or unworthiness.
