Jon Voight
challenges and difficulties

Jon has difficulty asserting his will and desires directly and openly. He may also suppress his anger and aggressiveness. Developing self-confidence, courage, and faith in himself are important tasks for Voight.

Jon Voight has a mature, disciplined, serious attitude toward life which colors everything he does. Caution and realism are his virtues though Jon limits himself at times by being too careful, shy, or fearful, and not believing in himself enough or being assertive when necessary. Others find Jon Voight difficult to get to know intimately, as Voight tends to distance himself from them or to put forth a rather stern, "adult" face to the world.

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

He is capable of withstanding outside influences and remaining constant and steady on his path, but when under stress Jon Voight becomes downright obstinate and implacable, resisting any change no matter how necessary or desirable the change may be. Tenaciously trying to preserve the status quo and hold on to what he has, he is apt to ignore the subtle signals he receives about needing to do something differently, which often leads to a crisis.

Jon Voight needs to learn the limits of his ability to control life, and to accept and even embrace change and loss of the familiar, in order to allow for new life and growth. "Letting go" is a major life lesson for him. Voight also needs to develop a balanced attitude toward his appetites and desires, as Jon Voight tends to overindulge and/or deny himself excessively.

It is in his marriage and other intimate, one-to-one relationships that he is most likely to wrestle with these issues. He may see the qualities that he needs to develop more fully (described above) in his partner. It is important for Jon Voight to recognize, appreciate, and listen to the people in his life who express such attributes, as well as to develop them himself. Jon Voight has to put energy and attention into learning about others, and about himself through others.
