Mary Carey
challenges and difficulties

Mary Carey 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 Carey knows it should be done.

She frequently over analyzes or picks things apart mentally. Mary Carey may also be somewhat of a hypochondriac. Mary 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.

Mary Carey has a mature, disciplined, serious attitude toward life that colors everything she does. Caution and realism are her virtues though Mary limits herself at times by being too careful, shy or fearful, not believing in herself enough, or lacking the required assertiveness. Others find Mary Carey difficult to get to know intimately, as Carey tends to distance herself from them or to outwardly adopt a rather stern, "adult" demeanor.

Mary Carey strives and struggles a great deal with her ideals or spiritual aspirations. She may go through periods of self-denial, asceticism, and in-depth study of religious philosophy and spiritual practices, or she may lose heart and become cynical about religious ideals; however, she can never quite divorce herself from her idealistic concerns.

Mary dislikes tense or frustrating situations and has a strong desire to free herself from them. Acting quickly at times, Mary suddenly overcomes her inner inhibitions. Mary Carey also has the ability to aptly grasp difficult situations and to use them for her advancement.

Since she lacks the capacity to adapt, Mary Carey tends to be rebellious and fight hard against oppression. This could even lead to violent incidents, so Mary should try to keep her temper at bay. She may have to work extremely hard and handle a great many responsibilities.

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

Mary Carey's path lies in her development as an individual, the discovery of her own strengths and joys, the capacity to express her uniqueness and to stand out in a crowd. This involves becoming a leader, even though Carey's instinct is actually to be "one of the Indians" rather than the "chief". When under stress Mary Carey is apt to seek safety in numbers, to go along with the group. Also, she may believe that striving to do her personal best and to excel is wrong or selfish, but Mary should let go of this notion. Finding her own center and doing what gives her delight and energy is the most worthwhile contribution Mary Carey can offer the world at large.

It is deep within herself, as Mary Carey faces her own demons, fears, and struggles - those aspects of life that are not easily or readily shared, those parts of her life that Mary Carey keeps hidden from public view where she is most likely to wrestle with these issues.

The qualities described above can also be beneficially channeled into some sort of charitable work, altruistic service or ministering to people in need.

Mary Carey loves to show off the strength that she possesses and she has a strong desire to dominate others. Mary seems to have an exuberant craving for recognition and importance and a need to influence and lead large groups of people.

Carey makes a big impression on everyone she meets and has the ability to attract many people. Others find Mary Carey very fascinating and she is likely to see herself as their model in groups or associations.
