Liv Ullmann
challenges and difficulties

Liv has difficulty asserting her will and desires directly and openly. She may also suppress her anger and aggressiveness. Developing self-confidence, courage, and faith in herself are important tasks for Ullmann.

Her attitude toward religion, philosophy, and politics is very conservative and possibly narrow or rigid. On the one hand, Liv Ullmann may believe in nothing that is speculative or intangible, requiring proof for any idea presented to her. Each idea is thoroughly and systematically examined. On the other hand, Liv may tenaciously cling to her grand philosophical or metaphysical beliefs and opinions, refusing to modify them or to be open and receptive to others' insights and perspectives.

Her overall outlook on life is serious, and Liv Ullmann may feel that life or God will punish her if she does not watch her steps!

Her ambition and desire for power could be somewhat out of proportion and Ullmann can be quite ruthless in dealing with obstacles and difficulties she may be faced with. Liv Ullmann must learn to control her temper and be willing to compromise.

She is a bit skeptical, somewhat irritable, and others may think of Liv Ullmann as quarrelsome or nagging. Her nervousness seems to stem from her tendency to over-work herself, and Ullmann should try not to make more demands on others than they are able to handle.

She is inclined to be somewhat withdrawn and has a hard time discussing important matters with her family and close relationships. A serious and deep thinker, Liv Ullmann would like to explain her views to others, but has a difficult time finding the right words.

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

She is capable of withstanding outside influences and remaining constant and steady on her path, but when under stress Liv Ullmann 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 she has, she is apt to ignore the subtle signals she receives about needing to do something differently, which often leads to a crisis.

Liv Ullmann needs to learn the limits of her 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 her. Ullmann also needs to develop a balanced attitude toward her appetites and desires, as Liv Ullmann tends to overindulge and/or deny herself excessively.

It is in trying to strike a balance between Ullmann's inner, personal life and her career or involvement with the world at large that she is most likely to wrestle with these issues. Liv Ullmann needs to focus attention on her home and family situation, and create a secure inner anchor.

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

Going to extremes, willful rebelliousness and an instinctive anti-authoritarian attitude. Liv Ullmann seeks constant (and often purposeless) movement or change, involvement with unreliable people, and individual freedom at any cost.

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

She needs to give and receive affection, love and pleasure (primarily with the qualities described previously). Liv Ullmann has to learn to respond to, appreciate and create beauty, art, harmonious surroundings and relationships. She needs to be aware of aesthetics and to do things in a gracious, pleasing manner. Liv Ullmann has to start enjoying life, nurturing friendships and cultivating her ability to love and to receive love.
