Indira Gandhi
motivation

Although she is dramatic and likes to show off or stand out in some way (as described on the previous page), there is another side to Indira Gandhi that would gladly hole up in a deep, dark, quiet place. This other, more private and secretive side is described below.

Quiet, deep, emotionally complex and intensely private, she is not a person who is easy to get to know and understand. Indira Gandhi is extremely sensitive but disinclined to show it, and she only allows a special few into her inner world. Like a wary animal, she is cautious and mistrustful of those she does not know until "he sniffs them out". She is highly instinctive and intuitive. Indira Gandhi usually has a strong, immediate gut reaction to people, even though she may be unable to clearly articulate why she feels the way she does. Her feelings and perceptions go deeper than words.

Indira Gandhi also has a powerful need for deep emotional relationships and she forms very intense love bonds and attachments. She is possessive and often jealous of anyone or anything that she perceives as a threat to her relationship with someone she loves. When Indira Gandhi commits herself to someone or something, she is wholeheartedly devoted and expects complete loyalty in return. Indira merges with or "marries" the person she loves at a very deep level and therefore separations are extremely painful for her, and often stormy and nasty. When Gandhi has been wounded, she is not inclined to turn the other cheek and will retaliate if at all possible. Indira will most certainly never forget the hurt and she often harbors grievances and resentment for a very long time. Forgiveness does not come easily to her.

Whatever she does, Indira does with passion and fervor, and she often goes to extremes. Gandhi can be hot or cold, but never lukewarm about anything. Gandhi can also be very narrow-minded: either she is 100% involved in something or it does not exist for her at all. Rarely is Indira Gandhi emotionally detached and objective. She definitely has a fanatical streak. She is also immensely strong-willed and her tenacity in pursuing her objectives often borders on obsession. She is filled with fierce pride, courage and emotional strength.

Indira Gandhi loves mysteries and is deeply attracted to the hidden, dark, secret side of life. Indira never takes things at face value and is always probing beneath the surface of people and situations to discover what is really going on. Indira Gandhi tends to be more of a cynic than an idealist.

She is a private person and inclined to withdraw in very public and impersonal social settings. Indira Gandhi prefers to work at home or in a very personal small business.

Gandhi invests a lot of her creative energy into her home, family relationships, and her inner life.

Gandhi's subconscious needs and feelings blend well with her conscious intentions and desires, therefore Indira Gandhi is able to proceed in her life's pursuits relatively unhampered by internal resistance or inconsistency. Indira's male-female relationships will reflect this state of internal harmony also.

Indira has an optimistic and harmonious personality and she happily goes about the attainment of her goals. Gandhi knows how to make the best of life's opportunities and she gets along with everyone. Indira Gandhi has the good fortune to live in pleasant and agreeable circumstances.
