Amber Tamblyn
drive and ambition

Once Amber Tamblyn sets her mind on a goal, her dedication, determination, and commitment are extraordinary. Tamblyn pursues her ambitions tenaciously and will stubbornly refuse to give up, let go, or be influenced in any way. Like Aesop's tortoise, Amber labors patiently and steadfastly until she achieves what she wants - or until it is clear beyond a shadow of a doubt that all is lost. She is a reliable, consistent and productive worker, and she often shoulders more of the workload than her co-workers, usually without complaint. She often ends up with the nitty-gritty work. She prefers a regular routine, with definite hours and clearly defined responsibilities and tasks. In fact, establishing a pattern or routine is very important to her success because once she gets started in a certain direction, it is easy for Amber Tamblyn to kept to that path. Getting started is more difficult. Amber Tamblyn has a lazy, comfort-loving side and there is often a good deal of inertia for her to overcome before Tamblyn gets going; but once she gets a momentum going, her energy level is strong and steady.

She is interested in concrete results and solid, practical achievements. Amber Tamblyn needs to have some tangible product or contribution to show for her efforts, and cannot be content with only intangible rewards (such as having a good time, learning, or spiritual enrichment). Material well-being and security is also a large factor in determining what she does. Amber's stamina and persistence are her greatest assets, but they can also work against her; she can get caught in a rut and refuse to seize new opportunities. Amber Tamblyn also tends to play it safe, and to limit herself as a result.

She is a doer and an achiever. Energetic, courageous, and often impatient, Amber Tamblyn will forge ahead with her plans regardless of the reservations of others. In fact, Tamblyn often feels other people get in her way and she prefers to work on her own. Amber is active, assertive and rather competitive as well.

Tamblyn frequently meets a tremendous amount of resistance whenever she wants to assert herself in a decisive way or do something just for herself. This resistance stems from within (in the form of self-doubt, fear, or a heavy sense of responsibility toward others), as well as from practical and circumstantial limitations. Especially when initiating a project or acting independently, Amber Tamblyn may tell herself that she is not really prepared, or that she is not good enough (yet), and she puts a lot of pressure on herself. Despite the obstacles, setbacks or lack of support she encounters, Amber Tamblyn can accomplish a great deal with patience and perseverance. However, she is apt to aim too low and not realize how much she is truly capable of.

Amber Tamblyn should try to recognize that she does not have to justify her existence or prove her worth through her accomplishments.

Amber Tamblyn has a streak of the pacifist or defeatist in her. Learning to assert herself in a strong, clear, forthright manner and developing stamina in the face of obstacles are necessary to counter such tendencies. To accomplish all she is capable of, it would also be very beneficial for Amber Tamblyn to work on building up her physical energy. Amber needs to get regular exercise, eat healthfully, get plenty of rest (something she may require more than an average amount of), and especially avoid activities and people who dissipate and waste her time.

She is intensely willful and can create trouble for herself by rather unconsciously forging ahead, without realizing that she is trampling over people. Sometimes, if Amber Tamblyn cannot get what she wants directly, she will try to dominate, manipulate or seek power in a covert, subtle sort of way.

Because of her somewhat negative attitude, Amber could feel listless a great deal of time and is likely to become physically inactive. Amber Tamblyn tends to become easily overwhelmed; her objectives tend to be unclear, and Tamblyn questions her ability to attain them.

Her energy may be a bit low and Tamblyn does not seem to have enough stamina to resist external powers. Amber Tamblyn could easily be used as a medium, or someone else may set her up as a tool to further their interests without Amber knowing what is really going on.

Amber Tamblyn has a desire to accomplish projects with others for the good of all. Amber could form associations or groups of people where she can further the pursuit of mutual objectives. Her achievements are likely to generate prestige for Tamblyn.

Tamblyn is able to do her work and take responsibility for overcoming her own problems and challenges in life, while at the same time being open to spiritual comfort, aid and guidance. A good balance between being well grounded and being receptive to spirit or the inner world works in Amber's favor. Enjoying simplicity and cultivating peace enables Amber Tamblyn to evolve and work through her challenges.

Amber Tamblyn is blessed with fluidity of speech and thought, and she uses her intellectual gifts or communicative skills to achieve her ambitions in life. Convincing, selling, persuading, reasoning, bringing ideas into public awareness are also part of Tamblyn's professional life.

Often Amber Tamblyn feels like she is being pulled in two directions - what she needs to do to fulfill her long-range ambitions, and what she actually feels like doing. This may make it difficult for Amber to be constant and consistent in pursuing goals, career aims, etc.

Relationships with women, trying to satisfy family needs, or other emotional attachments sometimes also conflict. Often Amber Tamblyn has to decide on one or another at a given time, rather than try to have both.
