Katharine Hepburn
challenges and difficulties

Katharine Hepburn often has a sense of longing or homesickness for something she cannot name or specify, and she may have both: great attraction toward, and fear of, mysticism and parapsychology.

Overcoming feelings of fear, guilt, anxiety, loneliness, or oversensitivity is an important task for Hepburn.

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

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

Once she decides what she wants to do, Katharine Hepburn will pursue her goal tenaciously and, if necessary, sacrifice a great deal for her deeply felt convictions. This trait tends to make Katharine feel a little out of step with others. Katharine Hepburn takes things a little more seriously and has an inclination to be somewhat of a fanatic, although probably not flamboyantly so; as a result, others may not be aware of how deeply Katharine feels and how driven she is about the things that are important to her. Katharine Hepburn has a deep inner resolve and is willing to struggle to do the things that are really meaningful to her, rather than follow an easier but less meaningful course in life.

Now we will discuss patterns of behavior which Katharine Hepburn instinctively and habitually reverts to when under stress - a mostly subconscious process that she is apt to over indulge in because it is so familiar and hence easy for her. The direction Katharine Hepburn needs to follow in order to develop balance, greater awareness, and wholeness is also described.

When under stress, Katharine Hepburn is apt to shut off the flow of her emotions and ignore her needs and feelings in order to do what she perceives as her 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 her, makes life more of a burden than an adventure.

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

It is in fostering a personal vision or philosophy of life, whether through religious or philosophical studies, education or the wisdom of distant lands or cultures that Katharine Hepburn is most likely to wrestle with these issues. Katharine Hepburn needs to cultivate the qualities described above in this endeavor. Long distance communication and involvement with foreigners is likely to be significant to Hepburn.
