Georges Bataille
challenges and difficulties

Bataille both yearns for, and fears, being emotionally vulnerable with others and experiencing deep emotional intimacy. Trusting others and letting himself be known in a deep way does not come easily to Georges, and sexual inhibitions may result from this. Georges Bataille is very self-protective and may be compulsively secretive. Learning to relinquish control in personal relationships, and to be completely open, is an important task for Bataille.

Fear of the unknown, of change, and/or of death may plague Georges. He strongly resists changes and transitions rather than greeting them with curiosity or a spirit of adventure, which makes them much harder for him.

On another level entirely, Georges Bataille is very careful about joining forces, and especially his material resources, with others. Bataille wants to keep his own and other people's property and assets very distinct.

He is serious and sincere about his interests, does not accept superficial answers and is not easily placated. Georges wants his inspirations to become reality and he does not mind upsetting a few apple carts in the process. Georges Bataille becomes impatient with others for being hesitant to implement new ideas and take action, and his occasional outbreaks of brusque, insensitive behavior often do more harm than good.

Because of his inner reserve and basic shyness, Georges Bataille appears to lack adaptability and is a bit inhibited in dealing with other people. His approach is somewhat serious and it is difficult for Georges to face the public.

Somewhat shy, Georges finds it difficult to relate to people and tends to withdraw from others. Since it is hard for Georges Bataille to establish relationships, he would rather be by himself. Georges likes everything simple or plain and prefers a more humble and secluded life.

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

Georges Bataille's path lies in cultivating idealism and humanitarian feelings, being concerned with how Bataille's actions impact the world at large, perhaps becoming more aware of the social implications of Bataille's life style and personal choices or becoming active politically. Participating in organizations that support Bataille'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?" Bataille's focus needs to shift to "how will this affect us all?".

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

It is deep within himself, as Georges Bataille faces his own demons, fears, and struggles - those aspects of life that are not easily or readily shared, those parts of his life that Georges Bataille keeps hidden from public view where he is most likely to wrestle with these issues.

The qualities described above can also be beneficially channeled into some sort of charitable work, altruistic service or ministering to people in need.

Georges Bataille tends to feel inferior and his attitude in the presence of others could be a bit negative or weak. He is inclined to shy away from groups and would be a rather quiet and passive member of an organization or association.

Georges Bataille tends to be a bit too idealistic and may place too much hope on his relationships, resulting in frequent disappointments. Georges could be attracted to naive people, but some of his contacts also may turn out to be swindlers.
