Carlo Ponti
drive and ambition

Ponti is aspiring, enterprising and forever following a bright and distant star, planning some new venture or investigating new potential. He is definitely "upwardly mobile" in either a material or spiritual sense. Carlo Ponti aims high and is not content with a mere quiet, secure existence. Carlo likes to stretch his limits, see how far he can go and take risks. He is a positive thinker, expects success for himself, and is philosophical about failures. Ponti is flexible and he bounces back from disappointments rather quickly, usually with another hopeful new idea he wants to try. His enthusiasm and confidence are contagious and enable Carlo Ponti to enlist the aid and support he needs for his projects. However, Carlo Ponti sometimes promises more than he can actually achieve, because he is overly optimistic or pays insufficient attention to the practicalities involved.

He also tends to get distracted and to have too many things going on at once. Although it is very difficult for him, there are times when Carlo Ponti simply must cultivate commitment, perseverance and persistence in order to make his dreams and goals reality. Too often Carlo Ponti falls short of what he could attain because he is unwilling to persist through the difficult or less exciting times.

Carlo Ponti also enjoys competition and usually does not take it too seriously. Sports and entrepreneurial endeavors are good ways to channel Carlo's energy.

Carlo Ponti meets numerous challenges and possibly defeats in pursuit of his goals and desires, and his setbacks often occur because Carlo has been too rash or intent on working his own will regardless of the impact on others.

He is suited to large, expansive enterprises and dealing with wealth.

Deep, compelling drives which Carlo Ponti does not entirely understand are apt to be the source of his rather extraordinary ambitions. He may find that a drive for dominance, power, and control arises out of the rather problematic and intense relationships Carlo had with one or both of his parents. If Carlo Ponti is willing to delve deeply into his own fears and inner life, clearing away much of the conditioning of his earliest years, he will indeed discover tremendous inner resources which can be used to fuel his rise in the world.

To achieve his ambitions and long-range goals will require much stamina and self-reliance as well as a clearly defined strategy. Numerous setbacks, obstructions or delays can also be expected. A father figure, mentor, or authority in Ponti's life may withdraw support at a crucial time. However, this will not stop Carlo Ponti and may ultimately be a blessing in disguise.

His decisions are based on the demands of the situation and he is able to take advantage of the right moment. Strongly career oriented, Carlo Ponti may have inner conflicts between his professional personal lives.

He is subject to frequent changes of mood and tends to lose courage quickly. Carlo Ponti is inclined to vacillate between idealistic and materialistic objectives and could end up feeling confused and lost. Considering himself weak and ineffectual, Carlo then may no longer feel like advancing.
