Ethan Hawke
challenges and difficulties

Hawke either overvalues or undervalues his possessions and assets. He can also go to extremes in dealing with bodily needs and desires, being either hedonistic or ascetic. Ethan Hawke 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 Ethan Hawke feels that he does not have "enough" to make him feel secure, regardless of how much (money, insurance, etc.) he has!

His childhood or his relationships with his parents was restrictive, unloving, or unhappy in ways that may prevent Ethan from allowing other people to get close to him in later life. Ethan Hawke felt deprived in some manner, whether or not he actually was deprived in some way. Emotional separations or repression of his needs and feelings may typify his early life, at least as Hawke remembers it. Forgiving his parents and/or letting go of any resentments he has about the limitations that he experienced early in his life is crucial. Also, Ethan Hawke needs to build his own solid foundation, and investing time and energy into his home, domestic relationships, and inner life can help Ethan accomplish this.

Ethan Hawke tends to seesaw between hope, optimism, and faith versus doubt and oppression by limitations and practical realities. He needs to overcome impatience and restlessness in order to achieve his dreams and desires for a better life.

His attitude toward life is quite serious and he is very thorough. Ethan has the need to be by himself and think out everything very carefully before he takes action. Ethan Hawke may enjoy doing some type of creative art work shaped from hard or heavy materials.

He is likely to find it hard to make decisions, looking forward to the future with great enthusiasm on one hand, but afraid of misjudgments on the other. Never quite sure about anything, Ethan Hawke may withdraw from situations and people periodically.

Ethan Hawke tends to be somewhat insecure and uncertain about his direction of life. Frequently plagued by doubt and fear, he is inclined to worry a lot. Because Hawke lacks the confidence to fight back, he may allow himself to become the victim of other people.

Now we will discuss patterns of behavior which Ethan Hawke 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 Ethan Hawke needs to follow in order to develop balance, greater awareness, and wholeness is also described.

Ethan Hawke's path lies in cultivating idealism and humanitarian feelings, being concerned with how Hawke's actions impact the world at large, perhaps becoming more aware of the social implications of Hawke's life style and personal choices or becoming active politically. Participating in organizations that support Hawke's ideals is one way to do this.

When under stress he is likely to become overly focused on himself and his own little world.

Instead of "how will this benefit or hurt me?" Hawke's focus needs to shift to "how will this affect us all?".

Ideally, Ethan Hawke needs to strike a balance between doing for himself and doing for others, by discovering how Hawke's unique gifts can benefit others.

It is in his relationships with others that he is most likely to wrestle with these issues. There is a dynamic balance (or conflict) within Ethan Hawke between acting spontaneously and being true to himself versus modifying himself or his behavior to suit others. Ethan Hawke seesaws between being inordinately concerned with his self to being overly conciliatory and concerned with others' needs, rights, or opinions about him. Learning to act authentically and forthrightly regardless of possible consequences is Hawke's task.
