Barbra Streisand
challenges and difficulties

Streisand either overvalues or undervalues her possessions and assets. She can also go to extremes in dealing with bodily needs and desires, being either hedonistic or ascetic. Barbra Streisand may deny herself sensual pleasure and enjoyment of the fruits of her labors. She may also be stingy and unable to give freely. Many times Barbra Streisand feels that she does not have "enough" to make her feel secure, regardless of how much (money, insurance, etc.) she has!

Her fears revolve around money and material security, and Barbra Streisand works very hard to ensure that her assets are solid. She may be very conservative, even stingy, with her money because she is afraid there will not be enough. She may turn this fear around and become very shrewd about investments and financial matters.

She is serious and sincere about her interests, does not accept superficial answers and is not easily placated. Barbra wants her inspirations to become reality and she does not mind upsetting a few apple carts in the process. Barbra Streisand becomes impatient with others for being hesitant to implement new ideas and take action, and her occasional outbreaks of brusque, insensitive behavior often do more harm than good.

She is inclined to be somewhat timid and afraid to start something on her own, preferring that someone else tells her what to do. Barbra Streisand can easily be deterred from pursuing her goals, making her advancement in life rather slow.

Barbra Streisand tends to suppress her feelings and may be a bit inhibited in love relationships. Often times she may feel rejected or she may give the impression of rejecting others herself. Perhaps her mother or father has a difficult time showing their affection.

She is likely to find it hard to make decisions, looking forward to the future with great enthusiasm on one hand, but afraid of misjudgments on the other. Never quite sure about anything, Barbra Streisand may withdraw from situations and people periodically.

Now we will discuss patterns of behavior which Barbra Streisand 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 Barbra Streisand 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 Barbra Streisand copes with stress. Barbra Streisand 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 Barbra Streisand to function more efficiently in the world. Finding a way to be of practical service is also important.

It is in her work and her relationships with co-workers, employers, and employees that she is most likely to wrestle with these issues. Integrating the qualities described above into Streisand's work and daily routine will lead to greater satisfaction, improved health, and personal growth.
