Antonietta Lilly challenges and difficulties
Antonietta Lilly has a critical, cynical attitude towards many religions and philosophies. Without realizing it, she prevents herself from appreciating new viewpoints and attitudes. Lilly is more rigid and dogmatic than she realizes. Her approach may also be too intellectual or moralistic. Antonietta Lilly takes her own political beliefs and spiritual philosophy very seriously, worrying and fretting if she is not 100% clear about some ideology or theory.
Antonietta Lilly has a mature, disciplined, serious attitude toward life which colors everything she does. Caution and realism are her virtues though Antonietta limits herself at times by being too careful, shy, or fearful, and not believing in herself enough or being assertive when necessary. Others find Antonietta Lilly difficult to get to know intimately, as Lilly tends to distance herself from them or to put forth a rather stern, "adult" face to the world.
Antonietta Lilly tends to be her own worst enemy, demanding inhuman perfection of herself and harshly criticizing or persecuting herself when she does not measure up. Perhaps circumstances or relationships in her life have been extremely difficult and demanding, reinforcing Antonietta's belief that she must struggle alone.
She is capable of tremendous effort and of overcoming great odds and handicaps. Through these efforts Antonietta Lilly develops her power and inner strength. However, Antonietta Lilly should not make life harder than it is. She must give herself permission to let up sometimes, and to realize that she is only human.

Now we will discuss patterns of behavior which Antonietta Lilly 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 Antonietta Lilly needs to follow in order to develop balance, greater awareness, and wholeness is also described.
Antonietta Lilly needs to take what she has learned (either through formal education or her own questing and life experience) and share it with others, communicate it or express it in a way that can benefit others. Knowledge and understanding, which does not enhance either Antonietta's quality of life or that of persons in her world, is of little real value. Putting Lilly's understanding, philosophy, and convictions into practice in her daily relationships, and in the multiple choices she makes every day, will enable Antonietta Lilly to really test her belief system and discover more about life.
When under stress, Antonietta Lilly is apt to seek refuge in imagining that the grass is greener elsewhere, rather than working with what is at hand. Antonietta Lilly needs to cultivate her ability to live in the present!
