Josephine Baker
in Relationships

Her desire for harmonious relationships and surroundings is so strong that she avoids personal confrontation or any expression of intense, unpleasant emotions. Josephine Baker is an idealist who would like to paint the world in pastel colors, and live in peace and harmony with others at all times. She is able to see points of similarity and unity with people who are vastly different from her, and befriend many different types of people. She is a considerate and thoughtful friend, and has a real flair for making others feel accepted and appreciated. Inwardly, Josephine Baker is often torn with indecision and is much more at odds with herself than others would ever guess based on her flawless disposition.

Josephine Baker often makes decisions solely for emotional or personal reasons, because something "feels right" or because she has always done it a certain way and she is uncomfortable changing it. Even when Baker thinks she is being rational, her prejudices, intuitions, and feelings influence her thoughts a great deal. Josephine is comfortable talking about feelings and personal subjects, and sharing confidences, which enables others to express their own inner feelings with her as well. Josephine Baker has good psychological insight into others.

She is assertive and confronts difficulties in a direct, no-nonsense sort of way. Josephine Baker cannot tolerate self-pity or passivity, and she can be rather brusque with others' emotional problems. "Stop crying and do something about it" might be Baker's motto.

Josephine Baker has a strong sense of duty, is serious and tends to see everything on the dark side. Josephine should guard against emotional inhibition and depression. She prefers to lead a secluded, modest and simple life.

Sensitive and sentimental, Josephine Baker is deeply attached to her family, old friends, familiar places and the past. She is romantic and tender in love relationships, and it is of utmost importance to Baker to remember birthdays, anniversaries, family rituals and other personally significant days. Josephine Baker seeks caring, emotional support, and security in her love relationships. Josephine likes to be needed, as well as to cherish and protect her loved ones, of whom she is somewhat possessive.

Baker is a very sociable, congenial person and she wilts very quickly without relationships with good friends and people to share good times with. Josephine Baker thoroughly enjoys working with others on group projects or community activities. She is quite happy when she is a part of a club, support group, or team of some sort.

Loyalty, fidelity and security are very important to Josephine Baker in love relationships. She is cautious about giving her heart away but true to the one who does win her love. Her tastes are simple, even austere, and she does not appreciate frivolity. Baker is interested in a person's character and inner qualities far more than in her or her appearance. Casual or superficial relationships do not interest Josephine Baker at all, for love seems to get deeper and richer and more satisfying for her with time.

When it comes to love relationships, Baker is likely to feel pulled in several directions at once. In addition to her desire for depth and security in her relationships, Josephine Baker has an impulsive side and a need for a lot of variety and excitement, as discussed in the following paragraphs. These urges do not have to conflict, but they certainly can, especially if Josephine acts on her spontaneous impulses without much consideration for their long-term effects on her personal life.

Josephine Baker is not a traditionalist where love and relationships are concerned, and she often feels that formal commitments and conventional relationships are too binding and restricting. Thus, Josephine is not very comfortable with forming lasting attachments or letting other people depend on her. She may be attracted to wild, unreliable, highly creative and/or unstable people who do not offer her any security. Even if Josephine Baker professes to want something steady and solid, she is very reluctant to give up her freedom and autonomy for its sake. At best, she is suited to serial monogamy or relationships that leave Baker a lot of breathing space.

She is very romantic, idealistic and imaginative about love relationships. Josephine Baker yearns for her "true love" or "soul mate" and may become disappointed in those who never quite live up to her dream image of the perfect lover. Baker frequently fantasizes about love and often falls in love with someone she can only love from afar. She may avoid making a definite personal commitment. Gentle and sensitive, Josephine Baker does not like to be approached in a very direct or aggressive manner. She is attracted to those with artistic or mystical inclinations.

Josephine Baker has a need to mix with people expressing the same feelings and having the same interests that she has. Josephine shares her artistic concerns with others and is likely to join groups or associations that deal with art in some way.
