challenges and difficulties

Danny Wood may deny himself sensual pleasure and enjoyment of the fruits of his labors. He may also be stingy and unable to give freely. Many times Danny Wood feels that he does not have "enough" to make him feel secure, regardless of how much (money, insurance, etc.) he has!

It may be difficult for Danny Wood to play spontaneously or just let his hair down, for he tends to inhibit that side of his by being too self-conscious and concerned with the impression he is making.

Danny may work very hard at some sport or creative medium in order to excel, for he wants very, very much to be noticed, acknowledged and recognized as special in some way. Though he may indeed be outstanding, Danny Wood also needs to learn to relax and enjoy himself more.

The side of Danny Wood that wants and needs structure, order, stability, and a disciplined way of life is at odds with his urges for unfettered freedom, change, excitement, and discovery. There is apt to be much discontent, inner stress, and tension as a result, and at times Danny finds it hard to relax. Danny Wood may act out in a rebellious way now and then, or clamp down hard on himself, in an attempt to strictly control his "wild" impulses. Wood's task is to try to find a reasonable balance between order and creative chaos in his life.

Now we will discuss patterns of behavior which Danny Wood instinctively and habitually reverts to when under stress - a mostly subconscious process that he is apt to over indulge in because it is so familiar and hence easy for him. The direction Danny Wood needs to follow in order to develop balance, greater awareness, and wholeness is also described.

Cultivating the qualities of empathy, gentleness, and compassion will help counterbalance Wood's deeply ingrained perfectionism and critical nature. When under stress, he is apt to try to rigorously analyze and focus on what needs to be corrected or improved, and he can easily become problem-oriented and lose sight of the big picture.

Danny Wood has to learn to relax and surrender to the flow of events without having to figure everything out all the time. He should let his feelings and intuitions flow more freely, be more flexible and fluid, use his imagination and let his dreams emerge!
