The situation is that of a child, alone in the world, without a home, having to survive among adults. This makes them timid and shy towards stronger and bigger adults. But on the other hand they can be domineering and aggressive to weaker persons in order to get what they need to survive.MindAnxious, shy, timid.
Timid towards superiors, bossy towards inferiors.
Fear: crowds, people; aggression.Stages Remediesx Phlegmariurus phlegmaria
