Alexandra Maria Lara
challenges and difficulties

Alexandra Maria Lara has a penchant for order and precision, and an almost compulsive attention to detail. She is often hypercritical and can be such a demanding perfectionist that she discourages herself or others from even attempting something that will not be done exactly the way Lara knows it should be done.

She frequently over analyzes or picks things apart mentally. Alexandra Maria Lara may also be somewhat of a hypochondriac. Alexandra must learn that she does not have to rationally understand everything in order for it to be valid, and also to relax her unnecessarily high or strict standards.

Alexandra may be plagued by fear of the unknown, of change, and/or of death. She strongly resists changes and transitions rather than greeting them with curiosity or a spirit of adventure, which makes them much harder for her.

On another level entirely, Alexandra Maria Lara is very careful about joining forces, and especially her material resources, with others. Lara wants to keep her own and other people's property and assets very distinct.

Alexandra Maria Lara strives and struggles a great deal with her ideals or spiritual aspirations. She may go through periods of self-denial, asceticism, and in-depth study of religious philosophy and spiritual practices, or she may lose heart and become cynical about religious ideals; however, she can never quite divorce herself from her idealistic concerns.

Sometimes circumstances appear to be working against Alexandra, and she may have to confront major challenges. Alexandra Maria Lara will probably have to work harder than others in order to succeed, thereby rendering her hard and cold hearted in her decision-making.

Now we will discuss patterns of behavior which Alexandra Maria Lara instinctively and habitually reverts to when under stress - a mostly subconscious process that she is apt to over indulge in because it is so familiar and hence easy for her. The direction Alexandra Maria Lara needs to follow in order to develop balance, greater awareness, and wholeness is also described.

Her natural instinct, especially when under stress, is to passively go along with whatever is easiest, refrain from clearly analyzing or assessing her situation and perhaps even try to escape from seeing her situation clearly by indulging in fantasies, intoxicants, and the like. Dreaminess and impracticality, being unfocused and undefined (at least in certain areas) are ways Alexandra Maria Lara copes with stress. Alexandra Maria Lara also has trouble setting limits and saying no.

Her development path lies in cultivating discrimination and clarity, becoming more precise, and developing technical and practical skills that will enable Alexandra Maria Lara to function more efficiently in the world. Finding a way to be of practical service is also important.

It is in relationships that are more than superficial or casual - in particular in cases where Alexandra Maria Lara has merged emotionally, legally, or financially with another person - that she is most likely to wrestle with these issues. Lara will see these issues arise in close partnerships of any kind, especially when there is a mutual dependency involved. Dealing with in-laws, inheritances, and legal matters involving joint custody, shared assets, and resources is also a part of this.

Alexandra Maria Lara is not in the least bit selfish and she has the ability to share the joy she feels with other people. Alexandra seems to have a gift for getting more reserved people to open up, teaching them how to give and receive love and affection.
