Reached for: Sacred Path Fixation (Dependency)

“If I stay on the path and get it right, I'll be looked after. That's the arrangement.”

A route is followed in the expectation that following it correctly obliges something to provide, and competence goes undeveloped because provision is taken as given. The expectation was set either by parenting that undercut every attempt at independence, or by a neglect impersonal enough to leave a child waiting to be noticed. What it asks for is one need met by one's own hand.

The Archetypal Form

Ivan the Fool, carried from task to task by helpers who did every difficult part, arriving at the prize without ever acquiring a single skill. The form implies a task of doing one hard part unassisted.
