Katsuni
challenges and difficulties

Katsuni has a penchant for order and precision, and an almost compulsive attention to detail. She is often hypercritical and can be such a demanding perfectionist that she discourages herself or others from even attempting something that will not be done exactly the way Katsuni knows it should be done.

She frequently over analyzes or picks things apart mentally. Katsuni may also be somewhat of a hypochondriac. Katsuni must learn that she does not have to rationally understand everything in order for it to be valid, and also to relax her unnecessarily high or strict standards.

She is serious by nature, and may have difficulty making small talk or participating in friendly, personal exchanges.

Katsuni tries to be strictly accurate and is critical of people who exaggerate or discuss subjects they really know little about. Katsuni withholds her thoughts and opinions until she has thought everything through quite thoroughly, and sometimes Katsuni's silence discomforts others.

Her mental concentration is very good but her breadth of understanding may not be.

Sometimes circumstances appear to be working against Katsuni, and she may have to confront major challenges. Katsuni will probably have to work harder than others in order to succeed, thereby rendering her hard and cold hearted in her decision-making.

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

Her natural instinct, especially when under stress, is to passively go along with whatever is easiest, refrain from clearly analyzing or assessing her situation and perhaps even try to escape from seeing her situation clearly by indulging in fantasies, intoxicants, and the like. Dreaminess and impracticality, being unfocused and undefined (at least in certain areas) are ways Katsuni copes with stress. Katsuni also has trouble setting limits and saying no.

Her development path lies in cultivating discrimination and clarity, becoming more precise, and developing technical and practical skills that will enable Katsuni to function more efficiently in the world. Finding a way to be of practical service is also important.

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

The specific habits which are likely to hold Katsuni back, or which she is prone to overdo, especially during stressful periods, include:

The tendency for self-indulgence, laziness, and over-reliance on the generosity or affection of others, as well as making love relationships, social life and superficial pleasures more important than anything else in her life.

The following are specific activities that will support Katsuni in her growth. These may or may not feel natural to Katsuni, and she may initially resist or feel awkward about them, but they are crucial to her path to wholeness.

Katsuni should care for and nourish children, plants, pets or other people. She needs to make a home, create and sustain strong relationships with her family or a community that can support her and give her a sense of safety and belonging.

Katsuni should develop her listening skills and deepen her understanding and appreciation of women and their perspective. Katsuni has to learn to trust her own feelings, intuitions and emotional needs. She needs to care for herself in an accepting, non-judgmental way.

It is in Katsuni's best interest to take all that is good and helpful from her past and use it in a new way. (If she is so inclined, Katsuni may want to explore the potential of past-life regression to tap into gifts she has already developed).

Katsuni has a very affectionate attitude toward others and the capacity to love a lot of people. There probably is a very deep bond between Katsuni and her friends, and when she falls in love, Katsuni is likely to love just as deeply.

Katsuni is inclined to seek out relationships with people who have the same interests and she has a desire to work with them on obtaining mutual objectives. Some of Katsuni's contacts or introductions could come about suddenly.
