Giovanni Ribisi
challenges and difficulties

Ribisi is wary of becoming emotionally dependent on others, and may distance himself or deny his needs for relationships of closeness and intimacy so that he will not be vulnerable to rejection or abandonment. On the other hand, Giovanni Ribisi may cling excessively or need constant reassurance from loved ones and family. Developing a deep, inner sense of security, as well as the ability to give and receive nurturing are important tasks for Giovanni.

His childhood or his relationship with his parents was restrictive, unloving or unhappy in ways that may prevent Giovanni from allowing other people to get close to him in later life. Giovanni Ribisi feels that he was deprived in one form or another, regardless of whether he actually was or not. His early life - at least as Ribisi remembers it - may have been marked by emotional separation or repression of his needs and feelings. 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, Giovanni Ribisi needs to build his own solid foundation, and investing time and energy into his home, domestic relationships, and inner life can help Giovanni accomplish this task.

He may feel inhibited in his relationships with others and give the impression of being unapproachable and wanting to keep his distance. Giovanni Ribisi thinks about his feelings for a long time before he expresses them to anyone and he tends to hide his inner self.

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

It is easy for Giovanni Ribisi to become distracted from his path by the multitude of interesting choices, possibilities, and options available to him. Giovanni Ribisi needs to develop single mindedness and focus. Until Giovanni directs his attention to some of the big questions, such as "What is my life's purpose?" "What is really important to me and essential to my happiness?", he is apt to dabble, scatter his energies in many directions and engage in activities which are entertaining but ultimately neither fruitful nor enriching.

Having an overall vision for his life and aligning his daily activities so that they support rather than detract from Ribisi's larger purpose in life, is a significant step toward his personal development.

It is in fostering a personal vision or philosophy of life, whether through religious or philosophical studies, education or the wisdom of distant lands or cultures that Giovanni Ribisi is most likely to wrestle with these issues.

Giovanni Ribisi should become a warrior and cultivate a positive, victorious, active approach to life and to any problems he faces. It is in Ribisi's best interest to act on his own behalf instead of stalling, waiting or hoping someone else will do it for him. Giovanni Ribisi needs to assert himself openly and courageously and not to be afraid to make mistakes or stumble; there are bound to be a few trial runs to any new initiative. Giovanni needs to foster a healthy fighting spirit, pick himself up, and go! He also should learn to appreciate conflict and confrontation as a means to grow.

Giovanni Ribisi should become more aware of the spiritual side of life and its underlying unity by getting involved in charitable activities and opening up his psychic channels. Meditation that develops Ribisi's intuitive abilities, as well as learning about the unseen side of life through his own dream experiences or altered states of awareness, can be important steps in Giovanni's path.
