Gary Oldman takes his own political beliefs and spiritual philosophy very seriously, worrying and fretting if he is not 100% clear about some ideology or theory.

Gary Oldman takes both his work and his health very seriously, but he may demand so much of himself at work that he compromises his health. Gary can become a workaholic, not so much because he has lofty ambitions, but because he never feels like he has done enough.

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

He is capable of withstanding outside influences and remaining constant and steady on his path, but when under stress Gary Oldman becomes downright obstinate and implacable, resisting any change no matter how necessary or desirable the change may be. Tenaciously trying to preserve the status quo and hold on to what he has, he is apt to ignore the subtle signals he receives about needing to do something differently, which often leads to a crisis.

Gary Oldman needs to learn the limits of his ability to control life, and to accept and even embrace change and loss of the familiar, in order to allow for new life and growth. "Letting go" is a major life lesson for him. Oldman also needs to develop a balanced attitude toward his appetites and desires, as Gary Oldman tends to overindulge and/or deny himself excessively.
