Adelina Patti
motivation

Behind Patti's proud and rather self-centered demeanor (described in the previous chapter), she is a thoughtful person concerned with social issues. She is very sensitive to the ways in which economic, social and cultural issues affect individuals. In her own life, Adelina Patti struggles to find ways to advance herself while also contributing something valuable to her community. Patti must not be content with simply blaming society for her own problems or those of others, but rather become active in finding creative ways to solve these problems.

She is a freedom-loving, strong-willed and independent-minded individual, and she insists upon living her own life as she sees fit, even if it means ignoring convention and tradition. In personal relationships, Adelina Patti cannot be owned or possessed, and while she is willing to share herself with another, she does not always adjust easily to the emotional give and take of close relationships. Though intellectually open, Patti can be enormously stubborn, opinionated and inflexible on a one-to-one level. Adelina has strong convictions and feelings about fairness and equality, and she tries to abide by them; however, her ideals about how people "should" treat one another do not always take into account human weaknesses, differences and needs. Adelina Patti probably dislikes sentimentality and traditional gender roles and "games".

She is fair, intelligent, objective and rational and she often let her head rule rather than her heart. Adelina Patti seems rather self-sufficient and emotionally detached because she is capable of putting aside her personal feelings and viewing things dispassionately. But once Adelina makes up her mind on an issue, it is difficult to dissuade her, and she can be rather dogmatic.

Adelina Patti thinks in broad terms and is concerned with the world beyond her own personal sphere - her town, nation, or even planet. She is likely to become involved in, or show a keen interest in, community endeavors, social organizations and groups of all kinds. She enjoys being part of a group endeavor, and she often assumes the role of organizing, managing or supervising group activities.

Forward-looking and progressive, she harbors great hopes for the future. Adelina Patti stays current and up to date, and responds to contemporary cultural trends, both in terms of personal style and ideas. When young, Adelina Patti was very influenced by peer pressure and by all the "latest crazes". Adelina has an experimental mind and is attracted to novelty.

Her strong points include her concern for human welfare and social betterment, her sense of fairness and democratic spirit, and her vision. Her faults are her stubbornness and inflexibility, and a tendency to be very obtuse and insensitive when it comes to personal feelings and human needs.

Adelina Patti invests a tremendous amount of her creative energy into her relationships with others, particularly her marriage or other close partnerships. Adelina feels that she needs others in order to be all that she can be, and she is disinclined to solitary activities and endeavors.

Working with people on a one-to-one basis to bring about mutual understanding, harmony, and satisfaction is an area in which Adelina Patti can really excel. Counseling or negotiating are talents of hers.

Adelina Patti feels that she has the support of her family or others in her environment for her creative efforts and personal goals, which enables her to act with confidence. She is able to satisfy both her need to be an individual and her need for caring relationships and a sense of belonging. She is in harmony with herself and is therefore an effective individual.

She is direct, energetic, sometimes aggressive and combative. Adelina Patti often feels that she needs to fight to get what she wants, and she tends to have a "me-first" attitude that angers or irritates others. She is hasty, restless, impatient and sometimes reckless.

Along with her energy and drive, Adelina Patti has high ideals and an active fantasy life. There is a dreamer and an idealist in Patti, as well as a doer and a fighter. Adelina wants to win but not at the expense of others, and this may be somewhat of a dilemma for her.

Sensitive and imaginative, she is attracted to artistic and creative pursuits and to mysticism. Adelina Patti is impressionable and receptive, and often has experiences that are unusual and unexplainable by the rational mind. Adelina has an abundance of dreams, visions and longings, but does not always have the concentrated will and stamina to make them materialize. Gentle, idealistic and peace loving, Adelina often seeks to avoid the harsh realities of life. Adelina has an ethereal quality about her.

Adelina Patti undergoes deep, transformative changes in her life with relative ease and a minimum of conscious resistance. Because she does not avoid the depths, Patti has access to a lot of personal power and strength. Without realizing it or seeking it, Adelina is apt to have quite a potent effect on the people she comes into contact with, even superficially.
