Christopher Reeve
drive and ambition

He is aspiring, enterprising, and forever following some bright and distant star, planning some new venture or investigating new potentials. He is definitely "upwardly mobile" in either a material or spiritual sense. Christopher Reeve aims high and is not content simply with a quiet, secure existence. Christopher likes to stretch his limits, to see how far he can go, and to take risks. He is a positive thinker, expects success for himself, and is philosophical about failures. Reeve is flexible and he bounces back from disappointment rather quickly, usually with another hopeful new idea he wants to try. His enthusiasm and confidence are contagious and enable Christopher Reeve to enlist the aid and support he needs for his projects. However, Christopher Reeve 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 at once. Although it is very difficult for him, there are times when Christopher Reeve simply must develop commitment, perseverance, and persistence in order to make his dreams and goals a concrete reality. Too often Christopher Reeve falls short of what he could attain because he is unwilling to persist through the difficult or less exciting times.

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

Reeve plays vigorously and enjoys competitive games and physical rough-and-tumble activities. Athletics and/or physical activities have great appeal for him. Christopher Reeve takes the initiative in sports and also in romantic relationships: he is ardent in pursuing anything he desires.

While Christopher Reeve enjoys challenging himself to extend his abilities or try new activities, he is apt to bite off more than he can chew. Failures or accidents due to overestimating his prowess or capacities and being overly eager and poorly prepared, may result. Fortunately these disappointments or blunders do not dampen Christopher's spirits or his ambitions permanently; he has a lot of resilience and optimism. Most likely Christopher Reeve will need to develop his physical coordination and sense of timing in order to do some of the activities he dreams of doing.

Although enterprising and forward-looking, Christopher Reeve is also capable of much self-discipline, patience, and effort. He may swing from confidence and trust in the future to pessimism and doubt, when it comes to achieving his aims in life.

Conscientious, responsible, and serious about his work, Christopher Reeve accomplishes a great deal through his dedication. He is the person in the office or company who follows through, quietly sustains the effort, and keeps on going in spite of tedium, setbacks, or dry spells. This is often the key to Christopher's success. However, Christopher Reeve is humble about his accomplishments and contributions, and may thus not receive the recognition or recompense that he deserves.

Although he is patient and steady when pursuing an objective, when Christopher Reeve finally loses patience he loses it completely! In addition to having great tenacity and perseverance, Christopher has a daring and rebellious side as well:

Fits of temper and impatience, and a sudden, erratic sort of recklessness can all work very much against Christopher Reeve, especially when he needs to be working cooperatively as part of a team or in a partnership. When he is upset or fired up about something, Christopher often does things that are risky and outrageous. When out of balance, Reeve tends to be accident prone.

His competitive drive and big ambitions (commented upon earlier) are fueled upon by either strong spiritual idealism, or a rather inflated, grandiose idea of what Christopher Reeve can actually accomplish. His energy level is apt to fluctuate from being very strong, as noted earlier, to rather low, as mentioned in the following paragraphs.

While Christopher Reeve is often charged with energy and inspired about what he wants to do (as mentioned earlier), there is a dreamy, visionary, or passive side to him as well. His energy level may fluctuate from being superabundant to rather lax.

Unlike some who have hopes and fantasies, Reeve is a person who tries to live out these dreams, no matter how impractical or fantastic they seem. Christopher Reeve has a quixotic, idealistic streak. He may be more inspired to work for some higher cause than simply for his own personal achievement.

Christopher Reeve has a strong sense of mission and he instinctively knows that to achieve anything great, one must eliminate superfluous activities, and give oneself wholly to the goal one wishes to accomplish. His zeal, enthusiasm, and clarity of purpose enable Christopher Reeve to succeed and to achieve whatever he aims for. Christopher Reeve has a strong will, but he is usually quiet and understated about it.

Freedom is very important to Christopher Reeve and he will work hard to get it. Quick to act, he wants to realize his goals immediately. Christopher Reeve has a strong desire to make his fortune in life and tends to take chances with speculative ventures or gambling.

He is likely to feel depressed frequently and has a strong desire to overcome it, but may not be able to count on much support from others. Christopher Reeve tends to separate himself from others and he feels like being expelled from society.

Often Christopher Reeve feels like he is being pulled in two directions - what he needs to do to fulfill his long-range ambitions, and what he actually feels like doing. This may make it difficult for Christopher 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 Christopher Reeve has to decide on one or another at a given time, rather than try to have both.

Christopher Reeve has a clear view of his aim in life and plans a course of action very thoroughly and decisively. He pursues his objectives with great assurance, gladly accepts responsibility, and he loves to work because Reeve likes what he does.

He is mentally alert and can explain his position clearly and unambiguously so that others can understand it. Always ready for action, Christopher Reeve has courage and determination and the ability to retaliate in the proper manner.
