When something or someone is not in its correct universe, dimension or cosmic location. Another word for anacosmism, especially to describe the feeling thereof. In the same way that a 'feeling of anachrony' means to feel as if one is in the wrong time.
An error of the anacosmy kind goes beyond mere 'anatopy' (where something is in the wrong geographic location but at least on the correct planet). Anacosmy can label errors in fantasy literature where people or things described are specific to Earth and ought not to exist in the fictional universe of the work.

A feeling of anacosmy washed over Erika as she realized the people around her were just... fundamentally wired differently to her. A strange sort of cosmic loneliness, as if she'd accidentally teleported to another Earth in a parallel dimension.

Get the anacosmy mug.In Sumerian and Akkadian mythology, Pazuzu was the king of the demons of wind, and son of the god Hanbi. For the Sumerians he also represented the southwestern wind, the bearer of storms.
Pazuzu is often depicted with the body of a man but with the head of a lion or dog, talons instead of feet, two pairs of wings, the tail of a scorpion and a serpentine penis. He is also depicted with the right hand upward, and the left hand downward; the position of the hands means life and death, or creation and destruction.
Pazuzu is the demon of the South-west wind that was known for bringing droughts and famine during dry seasons, and locusts during rainy seasons. Pazuzu was invoked in amulets aimed at fighting against the powers of the malicious goddess Lamashtu, who was believed to cause harm to mother and child during childbirth. Pazuzu is also a demon who protected humans against plague and evil forces.
