Taylor Hanson
challenges and difficulties

Hanson both yearns for, and fears, being emotionally vulnerable with others and experiencing deep emotional intimacy. Trusting others and letting himself be known in a deep way does not come easily to Taylor, and sexual inhibitions may result from this. Taylor Hanson is very self-protective and may be compulsively secretive. Learning to relinquish control in personal relationships, and to be completely open, is an important task for Hanson.

It may be difficult for Taylor Hanson to play spontaneously or just let his hair down, for he tends to inhibit that side of his by being too self-conscious and concerned with the impression he is making.

Taylor may work very hard at some sport or creative medium in order to excel, for he wants very, very much to be noticed, acknowledged, and recognized as special in some way. Though he may indeed be outstanding, Taylor Hanson also needs to learn to relax and enjoy himself more.

He is suspicious of groups, crowds, and social organizations. Hanson is quick to pick up on social charades and insincerity and avoids the limelight and glamour. Taylor Hanson is direct and to the point in speech and manner, stubborn and inflexible, and often unwilling to communicate his innermost feelings and thoughts.

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

When under stress, Taylor Hanson is apt to shut off the flow of his emotions and ignore his needs and feelings in order to do what he perceives as his duty or simply what the practical realities of the situation dictate. This can lead to a certain rigidity and inflexibility. If overdone, self-control, self-discipline, or an exaggerated concern over what society, family or others expect of him, makes life more of a burden than an adventure.

Fostering his tender, caring, feminine, and nurturing aspects is an important step in Taylor Hanson's growth. Taylor Hanson needs to learn how to nourish and lovingly tend to both himself and others. Letting himself be taken care of sometimes is okay!

It is deep within himself, as Taylor Hanson faces his own demons, fears, and struggles - those aspects of life that are not easily or readily shared, those parts of his life that Taylor Hanson keeps hidden from public view where he is most likely to wrestle with these issues.

The qualities described above can also be beneficially channeled into some sort of charitable work, altruistic service or ministering to people in need.

The specific habits which are likely to hold Taylor Hanson back, or which he is prone to overdo, especially during stressful periods, include:

Escapism through fantasy, intoxicants, or passive, vicarious activities (television, movies, etc.), waiting for a miracle instead of taking constructive steps to help himself, aimlessness or an inability to make and keep commitments, and self deception regarding other people. Taylor has a tendency to be a martyr.
