Katie Cassidy
challenges and difficulties

Katie Cassidy has a critical, cynical attitude towards many religions and philosophies. Without realizing it, she prevents herself from appreciating new viewpoints and attitudes. Cassidy is more rigid and dogmatic than she realizes. Her approach may also be too intellectual or moralistic. Katie Cassidy takes her own political beliefs and spiritual philosophy very seriously, worrying and fretting if she is not 100% clear about some ideology or theory.

She is very conscientious, responsible, and concerned with her duty, her public image and reputation, and becoming a person of stature in the world. Katie Cassidy understands the need for hard work and careful planning in order to accomplish anything substantial and she is capable of much self-discipline and patience once she sets her sights on a goal.

But Katie Cassidy is very judgmental and hard on herself if she fails to attain success, and she can become dry, bitter, or cynical if the world does not recognize her efforts.

Katie has an inner conflict between idealism, hope, and faith in the future versus doubt and oppression by limitations and practical realities. Katie Cassidy needs to develop discipline and patience in order to achieve her aspirations. Cassidy will grow by learning to accept frustration and to persevere in spite of obstacles.

Her upbringing may have been either too demanding or somewhat lacks. Katie Cassidy resists any attempt to restrict her freedom and has the ability to apply extraordinary efforts to overcome any inhibitions or difficulties that she may have.

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

Seeking harmonious interpersonal relationships, cooperation, and togetherness, as well as the desire to please or appease other people, are drives that come very naturally to Katie Cassidy - so much so that she seeks them out at her own expense. When she is under stress, Cassidy tends to look outside herself for approval or answers, and she leans on others too much. Therefore, developing self-reliance, and the courage to look inwardly for answers and forge her own path through life is a key factor in her self-development.

Katie Cassidy is often tempted to be less than completely straightforward about her intentions or desires, and she can become enmeshed in a quagmire of "little white lies". Stark honesty - both inward and toward others - is the only way out! This, however, leads to the need to confront some of Cassidy's most deeply ingrained fears, such as "what if they do not like me?" and "what if I have to go through this alone?".

Katie Cassidy needs to cultivate her ability to be assertive, take initiative and act on her own behalf. Directness and self-reliance are imperative.

It is in her dealings with money, financial security, tangible assets and possessions that she is most likely to wrestle with these issues. The qualities described above are ones Katie Cassidy needs to integrate in tangible ways: how she makes a living, building assets and a secure material base, what she does with the resources she has. Katie Cassidy should try to avoid over involvement or entanglements with other people's money matters, legal business, and personal affairs.
