Heather Hunter
motivation

Though Hunter may seem breezy, independent and freedom loving (as mentioned in the previous chapter), she is in fact not completely happy without a partner. She enjoys being on the move and exploring new territory, but wants a traveling companion! Hunter yearns for fulfilling, yet non-restricting relationships.

Harmony and balance are her keynotes. Heather Hunter instinctively understands the need to accommodate other people's interests and desires, and she is always fair and willing to meet others half way. Tactful, diplomatic, and quite socially aware, Heather does all she can to avoid conflict and discord. Her spirit is one of cooperation and compromise, and she often achieves through charm and discretion what would have been impossible to achieve with a direct, forceful approach.

Getting along with and pleasing others may be too important to Hunter since she can be too dependent on the approval and opinions of other to make her own decisions. Hunter will rarely act without seeking the counsel and feedback of other people. She prefers sharing and doing things with others rather than on her own. Being alone feels very unnatural to Heather Hunter, and she has a strong need for a partner and intimate one-on-one relationships.

Heather Hunter invests a great deal of her energy in personal love relationships and she is very idealistic and romantic about marriage. Heather Hunter seeks a partner who is her equal intellectually, and who is capable of a mental relationship as well as a physical and emotional one. She makes a thoughtful, considerate friend or lover, and she enjoys the traditional symbols of love - courtship, flowers, etc. Hunter perceives relationships like an art that requires time, attention and creative effort. Heather Hunter appreciates a partner who is subtle and polished, never coarse or blunt.

Fairness and equality, both in her personal relationships and in the world, are extremely important to her. If Heather Hunter fights about anything, it is often about something she feels is unfair and unbalanced. Balance is very important to Heather. She believes in moderation in all things and avoids fanaticism and extremism at all costs.

Heather Hunter also has a strong need for beautiful, harmonious surroundings and a natural sense of artistic style and grace, which is reflected in the way Hunter dresses and furnishes her home and workspace. Everything must be aesthetically pleasing and appropriate. Working with people as a counselor, advisor, consultant, or negotiator, or in an artistic field such as design or photography would be fulfilling to her.

Her career, reputation, and public image are very important to Hunter. Heather Hunter has a strong desire to be influential or make her mark on the world. The merely personal sphere does not satisfy her; her ambitions include making a major contribution and receiving broad recognition for her unique effort and gifts. Heather Hunter may undervalue the personal or inner side of life.

Heather Hunter tends to see things from her perspective only and to be rather subjective. She also enjoys talking and expressing her views but does not always listen as well. Heather Hunter has a clear mind, a love of learning and new experiences, and she needs constant mental stimulation and activity.

She is direct, energetic, sometimes aggressive and combative. Heather Hunter often feels that she needs to fight to get what she wants, and she tends to have a "me-first" attitude that angers or irritates others. She is hasty, restless, impatient and sometimes reckless.

She is blessed with abundant optimism, self-confidence and cheerful generosity. Her good will and friendliness win her many allies. Heather Hunter also has grand visions and aspirations, and the desire to succeed in life in a big way. Heather expects the best, and usually gets it.

While Heather Hunter does have a strong drive, she frequently holds herself back. One of her challenges lies in learning to endure frustration and to patiently overcome the obstacles in her life (or her own internal caution and resistance!).

However she also has a more somber side, which keeps Hunter's optimism from becoming ungrounded or overblown. Heather Hunter tends to seesaw between her faith, vision and high aspirations, and her caution and realism (or fear!). She cannot and does not rely on good luck or grace alone, and she accepts the need for hard work. Her skeptical or "somber" side is described below.

Heather has to overcome considerable hardship in order to fulfill her personal destiny. However, she does have the strength and stamina necessary to do so. Support and helpful guidance from her father or other significant men in her life may well be lacking. In fact, their disapproval of Heather and their harsh criticism are apt to be two of her greatest handicaps, and at times she may feel quite discouraged and alone. But true self-reliance and a solid sense of her own powers may well be the silver lining to that cloud in her life. Heather Hunter needs to learn to follow her own creative impulses and heart's desires, regardless of what her critics or the authorities say.

Although she takes herself and her responsibilities seriously, there is also a part of Heather Hunter that rebels against rules and restrictions and the need to contend with outside authority. Hunter can feel torn between conforming to the rules or fulfilling her obligations, and breaking free of them. Her wilder side will now be described.

Innovative, original, unorthodox and unconventional, she identifies with the role of a rebel, reformer or iconoclast. Heather Hunter insists upon a great deal of personal freedom and does not easily adapt to others' needs and wishes. Heather needs a lifestyle that allows her to be spontaneous. She often feels that she is somehow different from other people and outside of society's mainstream.

Heather Hunter probably has great intellectual ability and curiosity. Heather never seem to run out of ideas and always welcomes the study of new subjects, the more abstract the better. But she also has the basic sense to translate abstract ideas into practical reality.

Her comprehension is exceptional and Heather Hunter reacts to everything very quickly. Hunter shows deep respect for knowledge and feels that she must learn everything there is to know. Studying probably was encouraged early on and Heather Hunter was raised to be successful.
