Carried: Sacroiliac (Right)

I'm doing the world on its own terms and I feel like a child who somehow got handed the adult's part.

It shows as an uncertainty about how to proceed in the grown world, a persistent sense of being a child in an adult role, unsure one has what the part requires. On the outward, world-facing side of the body, the doubt is about handling things on the world's terms. What it asks for is to grant that one has in fact been managing the adult role, and to let competence be counted.

The Archetypal Form

Josiah, made king while still a boy, set over a whole kingdom's affairs long before he could have felt ready for them. The form implies a task: to stand in the office one was placed in, young as one still feels.
