Elton John
drive and ambition

He is non-combative, noncompetitive, and something of a pacifist. John will give something up rather than fight for it. He may seem weak-willed or ineffectual, for he does not have a strong ego drive for personal achievement and material advantage, or for winning at the expense of someone else. Being first, being best, being on top does not mean much to Elton John, and he can be quite happy in a supporting role, working for the benefit of others or for a cause that he believes in. Elton John is gentle and impressionable and is motivated by less mundane and less tangible things than most other people. He may have difficulty formulating clear, definite personal goals and making his way in the world. Elton has many dreams, high ideals, and a strong mystical or religious impulse. Elton John also has a creative imagination and can successfully apply himself to art or music. Elton John has a sensitive physique and he needs to maintain good regular health habits in order build strength and stamina.

Quick-witted and sharp-tongued, Elton John enjoys arguing, debating, and contesting other people's opinions. He is quite forthright and sometimes tactless. John can be very convincing about his point of view, but he is prone to a "hard-sell" approach which sometimes backfires. Challenging mental work is a good avenue for Elton's aggressive intellect.

Intensely restless, dynamic, and energetic, he is always on the go. When Elton John wants something, he wants it NOW, and he acts decisively, impulsively, sometimes hastily and prematurely. Impatient, high-strung, and often nervous and tense, Elton finds it difficult to slow down, pace himself, or relax. He is fiercely individualistic and independent, self-willed and intolerant of restraints and restrictions imposed by others. Elton John has a reckless disregard for authority and can be extremely rebellious. Cooperating with others is not his strong point! He is often brutally frank and abrupt with people, and can be quite impersonal when he is pursuing a desired goal. He may have an explosive temper when his will is blocked. Elton John has a superabundance of energy and he needs much personal freedom to do things in his own style and at his own pace.

He is rebellious and confident that he can do his own thing and still be accepted by the world around him. Because he is a freedom-lover, Elton John may find it difficult to relate to others and most of his relationships are likely to be very challenging.

Elton John has a good balance between idealism, optimism, and vision for the future on one hand and a realistic sense of what can actually be achieved on the other hand. His judgment and business sense are usually quite good. Elton possesses patience and the ability to accept limitation and frustration on the way to his goals.

Older, more experienced individuals or mentors are likely to play a significant and beneficial role in Elton's life.

Innovation, discovery, originality, experimentation, and opening up new channels of understanding are important aspects of his life's work. John's ambitions in life, as well as the way he achieves those goals, are unique or "alternative". Concerned with future trends and the new, Elton John is apt to be ahead of his time in many respects.

John can be rather antagonistic toward those in authority. Even without realizing it, he may convey this attitude and he may well be threatening to those in power. Thus, however well-meaning Elton John is, he may find his initiatives or projects meet with little favor. Working independently might be Elton's best option.

Elton John feels that he knows who he is and therefore is confident that he can achieve his objectives. He may consider marriage as his sole aim in life and could become completely bound up in his marriage and family life.
