Metaphor A to Z

Bunions

Bunions are found on the big toe. They are caused by inflammation and thickening of the bursa in the joint of the toe, and they cause the toe to displace laterally.

Bunions are caused by wearing tight-fitting shoes and are sometimes associated with having weak or flat feet.

Having bunions means that we are angry about not finding what we are looking for in life. This can begin with unmet childhood needs.

Underneath this anger we feel vulnerable about the issue of becoming more flexible to, and accepting of, what wants to come to us in life.

We have a misunderstanding about money.

This may result in us being stingy, or overgenerous in compensation.

If the bunions are on our right foot then they signify problems related to our father, career and the masculine.

The left foot signifies problems connected to our mother, relationship and the feminine.
