John Deacon
challenges and difficulties

John Deacon takes his personal relationships so seriously that they may seem more like work, constant effort and compromise, rather than a free and enjoyable sharing experience. He may feel that relationships in general require more of him than they are worth, and John enters into any close relationship cautiously and conscientiously. John Deacon also fears entrapment in close relationships.

Deacon is generally not a "joiner" and he does not feel comfortable in clubs, organizations or other groups of people that are centered on some common ideal or interest. If John Deacon does participate in a group, he may find the rules and procedures restrictive - or he may simply feel that he does not fit in with the others.

Being alone or with older, more experienced people suits John Deacon better than being with groups of his own peers.

John Deacon has a tendency to think on the dark side, is somewhat gloomy and touchy and easily disappointed. He may find it hard to keeps his attention on the real world and may become obsessed with strange ideas and fanciful beliefs.

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

Cultivating the qualities of empathy, gentleness, and compassion will help counterbalance Deacon's deeply ingrained perfectionism and critical nature. When under stress, he is apt to try to rigorously analyze and focus on what needs to be corrected or improved, and he can easily become problem-oriented and lose sight of the big picture.

John Deacon has to learn to relax and surrender to the flow of events without having to figure everything out all the time. He should let his feelings and intuitions flow more freely, be more flexible and fluid, use his imagination and let his dreams emerge!

It is in trying to strike a balance between Deacon's inner, personal life and his career or involvement with the world at large that he is most likely to wrestle with these issues. John Deacon needs to focus attention on his home and family situation, and create a secure inner anchor.

His relationships with others may be rather unstable and unreliable. With a somewhat negative attitude and weak will, John Deacon avoids opposition and escapes his responsibilities. In his relationships he is likely to choose people who are asocial.
