Elizabeth Taylor
motivation

Behind Taylor's open, enthusiastic, friendly demeanor (described in the previous chapter), she has a rather gentle, receding nature. She is much more sensitive and vulnerable than her outgoing demeanor would suggest.

Moreover, because her outgoing, enthusiastic approach to life is fueled by high idealism and a vivid imagination, Elizabeth Taylor easily becomes enamored of a romantic or idealistic goal or vision without investing sufficient energy into analyzing, planning or working in order to realize her dreams. Too often Taylor waits for the blessings of fortune to provide her with the resources needed rather than applying herself to the work that needs to be done. When properly channeled, Elizabeth's enthusiasm and vision can be an inspiration to others and an endless source of creative ideas that propel Elizabeth Taylor toward very interesting, creative endeavors.

At heart she is very gentle, impressionable and receptive - a dreamer. The world of her imagination, feelings, and intuition is as real to Elizabeth Taylor as anything in the outer world, though she may have trouble verbalizing or interpreting her inner experiences in a way others can understand. Mystical, artistic, musical, emotional and imaginative, she has a rich inner life, though Taylor may seem rather unobtrusive and quiet outwardly. Elizabeth Taylor usually keeps to herself.

Elizabeth shows great sensitivity and empathy toward others and often senses things psychically or intuitively which prove to be correct. She is tolerant, forgiving and nonjudgmental, accepting people unconditionally regardless of their flaws, mistakes, or outward appearance. Elizabeth has deep compassion for the suffering of any fellow creature and she often feels the pain of others as if it were her own. Elizabeth Taylor sympathizes with the needy, the disadvantaged and the misfits of society. She is capable of giving selflessly, living a life of devoted and compassionate service to others, as a healer, physician, social worker or minister. However, Taylor tends to give indiscriminately, to let others take advantage of her kindness, and to encourage the weak to remain so by becoming dependent upon her. Elizabeth has little sense of boundaries, or of knowing when to say "no". Moderation and self-discipline are not her strong points.

She is a lover and a peacemaker rather than a fighter, and she tries to avoid open conflict. Taylor will patiently ignore or "tune out" problems and hope they will go away by themselves, rather than confront them directly and Taylor tends to lack the positive, fighting spirit that is sometimes necessary to overcome challenges. She is fluid, open, nonresistant and somewhat passive. Elizabeth Taylor does things in a subtle, often covert, manner.

Her gifts may also lie in the realm of the creative, artistic, or musical, for she possesses great sensitivity, inspiration and limitless imagination. Elizabeth Taylor has a strong affinity for beauty and love.

Her faults include a tendency to be lazy and negligent, and to wallow in self-pity rather than take strong, definite action to change her life for the better. She also tends to become so detached from her immediate environment that she lives in a disorderly, chaotic sort of hodgepodge, though this probably bothers those around Taylor more than it bothers her.

The urge to learn and to communicate is essential to Elizabeth Taylor, and she expresses herself very well through writing, teaching or sharing ideas and information. Taylor is persuasive and fluent with language.

Restless and inquisitive, Elizabeth enjoys being mobile and taking short trips and excursions in order to see for herself what is going on in the world around her.

Elizabeth Taylor tends to see things from her perspective only and to be rather subjective. She also enjoys talking and expressing her views but does not always listen as well. Elizabeth Taylor has a clear mind, a love of learning and new experiences, and she needs constant mental stimulation and activity.

She is assertive, energetic, active, courageous and vital. Elizabeth Taylor has a very strong physical drive that expresses itself as sexuality and passion, a desire to compete with others, and a tendency to fight. Elizabeth Taylor has a victorious spirit and the will to win.

Along with her energy and drive, Elizabeth Taylor has high ideals and an active fantasy life. There is a dreamer and an idealist in Taylor, as well as a doer and a fighter. Elizabeth wants to win but not at the expense of others, and this may be somewhat of a dilemma for her.

Elizabeth Taylor is extremely sensitive, compassionate and giving, often to her own detriment. Her ideals and spiritual values motivate Elizabeth Taylor, and she cannot live for personal gain or materialistic concerns alone. There must be an element of beauty, magic, imagination, inspiration or creativity in what she does. Otherwise Elizabeth Taylor becomes listless and aimless. The arts, theater, music and/or charitable work are ideally suited to Elizabeth.

Elizabeth Taylor has a great need for security which she may seek in a partner who could be older than her and perhaps married before. Elizabeth Taylor probably feels restrained in expressing affection, giving the impression of being cool and indifferent toward those she loves.

Taylor tends to be in a constant state of tension and seems to look for avenues to test her strength. Elizabeth Taylor uses all the energy at her disposal in order to succeed. Somewhat rebellious and inflexible, Elizabeth fights any opposition or resistance she meets.
