Jean Simmons
general characteristics

Jean Simmons' fundamental needs, values, and orientation towards life are symbolized by the four astrological elements. Each person has their own unique balance of these four basic energies: fire (warmth, inspiration, enthusiasm), earth (practicality, realism, material interests), air (social and intellectual qualities), and water (emotional needs and feelings).

Simmons' "elemental make-up" is described below. Remember that most people are "unbalanced" or lopsided, and if Jean is lacking or deficient in a certain element (or elements), it simply means that she needs to consciously develop that particular aspect in order to appreciate and/or work harder in that dimension of life.

Sometimes we overestimate the element that we are least endowed with, sensing it as a lack within ourselves, but more often we neglect or ignore it. The qualities described below will be reiterated and explained in more detail in the following pages.

Jean Simmons has a great capacity to relate to, appreciate and understand different people and points of view, and she tends to be quite liberal in her attitudes. She is primarily a thinking person who requires much intellectual and social stimulation, conversation and interaction. Jean Simmons comprehends abstract reasoning and concepts very quickly and she likes ideas, language and culture. Simmons cannot imagine being happy in a world without books, films or interesting relationships.

There is an androgynous quality to Jean, and she relates equally well to men and women, having both male and female characteristics in nearly equal measure within herself. Jean Simmons tends to see someone as a person first, rather than as a woman or a man.

Friendship is very important to her sense of well-being. Jean Simmons thrives on camaraderie, teamwork, social endeavor and sharing. However, she is also quite objective about them and there is often an impersonal touch to her relationships with others.

Her mind is Simmons' real gift: thinking clearly, logically and creatively, planning and organizing efficiently, and communicating intelligently. However, Jean Simmons tends to "live in her head" - reading about, talking about, and observing life without becoming completely immersed in it. Jean should avoid becoming a dabbler. She also needs to foster constancy, stability, and depth.

She is likely to be overly humble or unsure of herself and to look to others for inspiration, motivation, reinforcement and approval. Tending to be somewhat passive, Jean Simmons must learn how to take initiative and motivate herself.

A lack of warmth (either physical, emotional or both) may be evident in Simmons and can manifest physically as a low energy level, paleness and lack of color in the skin, or a tendency to be easily chilled. Emotionally, it can be reflected in a marked coolness or aloofness with little spiritedness, joyfulness, or enthusiasm for living. Eating warming, spicy foods, living in a warm, sunny place, and using fire in her daily life (lighting candles, using a wood stove or fireplace for heat) can help balance Jean. Also, spending time with warm, cheerful, positive-minded people and developing a philosophy based on spiritual optimism can stir up Jean's own zest for life.

On the positive side, Jean Simmons is unlikely to be egocentric and has a capacity for ample patience and peacefulness.

One of her primary challenges lies in developing a sense of security and stability and adopting a steady rhythm in life. Cultivating self-discipline, patience and endurance and learning to accept realistic limitations will enable Jean Simmons to be more productive and to implement some of her ideas and creative impulses. Jean Simmons is not always interested in the practicalities and compromises required to make her dreams a reality.

At times, Jean Simmons feels out of place in the world, restless, discontent, unable to find her niche and dissatisfied with mundane reality. This may have the positive effect of sparking Simmons' exploration of the creative, imaginative or spiritual side of life. However, Jean tends to resist growing up and learning how to effectively deal with adult responsibility. She also tends to be either bound up with the past or projecting into the future, thereby ignoring the present. To become more grounded in the here and now, Jean Simmons may find it helpful to get massages on a regular basis, make a practice of gentle, rhythmic exercise like walking or yoga, and eat substantial, heavy foods.
