Julie Andrews
motivation

Although Julie Andrews appears aloof or self-sufficient at times (as described on the previous page), she is actually very interested in people and the social aspect of life. Julie has high standards for relationships, and she may not realize that it is more difficult for others to meet these standards than for her. Andrews believes that she merely expects a little courtesy and respect, however Julie Andrews actually becomes upset over rather minor oversights by her partner or friend.

Harmony and balance are her keynotes. Julie Andrews instinctively understands the need to accommodate other people's interests and desires, and she is always fair and willing to meet others half way. Tactful, diplomatic, and quite socially aware, Julie does all she can to avoid conflict and discord. Her spirit is one of cooperation and compromise, and she often achieves through charm and discretion what would have been impossible to achieve with a direct, forceful approach.

Getting along with and pleasing others may be too important to Andrews since she can be too dependent on the approval and opinions of other to make her own decisions. Andrews will rarely act without seeking the counsel and feedback of other people. She prefers sharing and doing things with others rather than on her own. Being alone feels very unnatural to Julie Andrews, and she has a strong need for a partner and intimate one-on-one relationships.

Julie Andrews invests a great deal of her energy in personal love relationships and she is very idealistic and romantic about marriage. Julie Andrews seeks a partner who is her equal intellectually, and who is capable of a mental relationship as well as a physical and emotional one. She makes a thoughtful, considerate friend or lover, and she enjoys the traditional symbols of love - courtship, flowers, etc. Andrews perceives relationships like an art that requires time, attention and creative effort. Julie Andrews appreciates a partner who is subtle and polished, never coarse or blunt.

Fairness and equality, both in her personal relationships and in the world, are extremely important to her. If Julie Andrews fights about anything, it is often about something she feels is unfair and unbalanced. Balance is very important to Julie. She believes in moderation in all things and avoids fanaticism and extremism at all costs.

Julie Andrews also has a strong need for beautiful, harmonious surroundings and a natural sense of artistic style and grace, which is reflected in the way Andrews dresses and furnishes her home and workspace. Everything must be aesthetically pleasing and appropriate. Working with people as a counselor, advisor, consultant, or negotiator, or in an artistic field such as design or photography would be fulfilling to her.

Julie Andrews has a clear sense of her own self and she therefore conveys a strong impression to others of who she is and what she wants. Assertive and self-motivated, Andrews can be a leader - one whom others look to for direction - but she competes and often clash with other strong individuals. Julie Andrews feels a need to be in control of her own life and she can be too self-involved, too immersed in her own interests, and oblivious to others at times.

Andrews can be an inspiring leader of a team or group effort. Her dynamism and energy evokes the same in others, and she sees healthy competition between people as a plus. Generally, Julie Andrews enjoys fine health as well.

While Julie Andrews does have a lot of drive, she frequently holds herself back. Learning to endure frustration and to patiently overcome the obstacles in her life (or her own internal caution and resistance!) is one of her tasks.

Julie has to overcome considerable hardship in order to fulfill her personal destiny. However, she does have the strength and stamina necessary to do so. Support and helpful guidance from her father or other significant men in her life may well be lacking. In fact, their disapproval of Julie and their harsh criticism are apt to be two of her greatest handicaps, and at times she may feel quite discouraged and alone. But true self-reliance and a solid sense of her own powers may well be the silver lining to that cloud in her life. Julie Andrews needs to learn to follow her own creative impulses and heart's desires, regardless of what her critics or the authorities say.

Although she takes herself and her responsibilities seriously, there is also a part of Julie Andrews that rebels against rules and restrictions and answering to outside authority. Andrews can feel torn between conforming or fulfilling her obligations, and breaking free of them. Her wilder side will now be described.

At times Julie Andrews may feel an uncontrollable urge to radically alter her direction in life, or to act in ways that seem eccentric or at least highly uncharacteristic of her. When her life is becoming too predictable, Julie may do something to upset the status quo, sometimes without realizing why or how she is doing this. These impulses may seem at odds with her conscious intent and desires for herself, and can be unsettling. However, there is a streak of unconventionality and creative genius in Julie Andrews which needs to be expressed now and then.

She is very receptive and sensitive but has a tendency to over-idealize, making her approach to love relationships, romance or marriage somewhat unrealistic. Julie Andrews also tends to be a bit absent-minded and naive, leaving herself open for being taken, swindled or lied to.

Maintaining relationships with friends and associates is very important to Julie Andrews and she keeps in touch with them through her shared interests. Her friends are likely to be very supportive to Andrews in everything she does.
