Leopold Stokowski
challenges and difficulties

Stokowski either overvalues or undervalues his possessions and assets. He can also go to extremes in dealing with bodily needs and desires, being either hedonistic or ascetic. Leopold Stokowski may deny himself sensual pleasure and enjoyment of the fruits of his labors. He may also be stingy and unable to give freely. Many times Leopold Stokowski feels that he does not have "enough" to make him feel secure, regardless of how much (money, insurance, etc.) he has!

His fears revolve around money and material security, and Leopold Stokowski works very hard to ensure that his assets are solid. He may be very conservative, even stingy, with his money because he is afraid there will not be enough. He may turn this fear around and become very shrewd about investments and financial matters.

Leopold Stokowski takes his ideals and dreams very seriously and goes through periods of fervent dedication to a lofty ideal or vision. Leopold has the ability to acquire true spiritual or imaginative insight, but he can also become so involved in his imaginative, idealistic pursuits that he looses perspective and develops feelings of alienation and isolation.

He is inclined to be somewhat timid and afraid to start something on his own, preferring that someone else tells him what to do. Leopold Stokowski can easily be deterred from pursuing his goals, making his advancement in life rather slow.

His ambition and desire for power could be somewhat out of proportion and Stokowski can be quite ruthless in dealing with obstacles and difficulties he may be faced with. Leopold Stokowski must learn to control his temper and be willing to compromise.

He is likely to have very intense experiences in his emotional life and should guard against feelings of depression and inhibition. Leopold Stokowski could be plagued by inner turmoil and obsessive ideas or notions.

Basically shy, Stokowski tends to be somewhat inhibited in love relationships and may feel uncomfortable or awkward expressing his love for someone.

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

He is capable of withstanding outside influences and remaining constant and steady on his path, but when under stress Leopold Stokowski becomes downright obstinate and implacable, resisting any change no matter how necessary or desirable the change may be. Tenaciously trying to preserve the status quo and hold on to what he has, he is apt to ignore the subtle signals he receives about needing to do something differently, which often leads to a crisis.

Leopold Stokowski needs to learn the limits of his ability to control life, and to accept and even embrace change and loss of the familiar, in order to allow for new life and growth. "Letting go" is a major life lesson for him. Stokowski also needs to develop a balanced attitude toward his appetites and desires, as Leopold Stokowski tends to overindulge and/or deny himself excessively.

It is in relationships that are more than superficial or casual - in particular in cases where Leopold Stokowski has merged emotionally, legally, or financially with another person - that he is most likely to wrestle with these issues. Stokowski will see these issues arise in close partnerships of any kind, especially when there is a mutual dependency involved. Dealing with in-laws, inheritances, and legal matters involving joint custody, shared assets, and resources is also a part of this.
