Josef Albers
challenges and difficulties

Albers fears of becoming emotionally dependent upon others, and may distance himself or deny his needs for relationships of closeness and intimacy so that he will not be vulnerable to rejection or abandonment. On the other hand, Josef Albers may cling excessively or need constant reassurance from loved ones and family. Developing a deep, inner sense of security, as well as the ability to give and receive nurturing are important tasks for Josef.

He is serious-minded and may have difficulty making light social conversation or participating in friendly, personal interchanges.

Josef Albers tries to be strictly accurate and he is critical of people who exaggerate or talk on subjects they really know little about. Albers withholds his thoughts and opinions until he has thought everything through quite thoroughly, and sometimes Josef's silence discomforts others.

His mental concentration is very good but his breadth of understanding may not be.

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

Josef Albers' path lies in his development as an individual, the discovery of his own strengths and joys, the capacity to express his uniqueness and to stand out in a crowd. This involves becoming a leader, even though Albers' instinct is actually to be "one of the Indians" rather than the "chief". When under stress Josef Albers is apt to seek safety in numbers, to go along with the group. Also, he may believe that striving to do his personal best and to excel is wrong or selfish, but Josef should let go of this notion. Finding his own center and doing what gives him delight and energy is the most worthwhile contribution Josef Albers can offer the world at large.

It is in his way of thinking, processing information and communicating that Josef Albers is most likely to wrestle with these issues. In Albers' relationships with neighbors, colleagues, and acquaintances, he needs to try to bring out the qualities described above.

Josef Albers tends to be fascinated by new and obscure things and may be strongly attracted to the occult. He may contribute to spontaneous forming of groups and could gain spiritual enlightenment together with other people.

Albers constantly seems to be under tremendous pressure and he wants to achieve record performances. Having a strong desire to accomplish immense tasks in team-work with others, Josef Albers has a tendency to demand too much of other people.
