There are some REALLY strange words this week!

I’m stuck on two:

47 down:
Jar on its lid - something often right underneath (6)

The letters I have are - - - G - E

53 across:
Area with which the author’s at home, reflecting his female side (5)

The letters I have are A - I - -. The final letter is the second letter of 47 down.

All help gratefully received!

53a ANIMA

Area = A

Author's at home (reflecting) = NI MA (IM IN reversed)

53 Anima, female side (of your personality, nature etc) A, area + NI MA, reversal of Am In, at home.

PS Yes, this was an odd puzzle in places!

Answered (Wolf Cub) on your other threads. You hadn't given the clue here, so that made helping trickier!
