Mary Pickford
challenges and difficulties

Mary Pickford 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 Pickford knows it should be done.

She frequently over analyze or pick things apart mentally. Mary Pickford may be something of a hypochondriac also. 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 Pickford takes her commitments to others very seriously, especially in close one-to-one relationships. Her strong sense of responsibility to the other person makes Pickford a trustworthy and dedicated partner, but she often feels that marriage or any binding commitment between her and another person is too restrictive and burdensome, and thus seeks to avoid it. Close relationships may be more work than pleasure for Mary Pickford and it may seem that she is always "working on" her marriage rather than enjoying it. However, Pickford will persevere and ultimately grow through the process.

She is inclined to be somewhat withdrawn and has a hard time discussing important matters with her family and close relationships.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

Pickford may find it difficult to relate to people and express her feelings, especially in love relationships. On one hand, Mary Pickford wants relationships and on the other she would rather be by herself. A sense of personal inadequacy makes Mary withdraw from others and feeling lonely as a result.

She is inclined to feel inferior and may easily be taken in by others. Mary has to guard against being deceived or used by others, though her intentions may be good. Mary Pickford must not let her desire to have things cloud her ability to see what is really happening.

She is not afraid of hard work and leaves no stone unturned in the pursuit of her objectives. Mary Pickford has a strong desire to overcome any difficulties or obstacles in her way and will do this at all cost, even if it means having to use force.

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

Mary Pickford benefits by becoming more aware of the rhythm of the seasons and the natural world, learning to slow down and allow life to unfold in its own time. Nurturing a garden, a child, or some other living, growing thing gives Mary Pickford a sense of inner balance.

Mary Pickford has a tendency to be deeply suspicious, to not take anything at face value and to see hidden agendas and dark motives even where none exist! Life does not have to be a constant conflict... Mary needs to learn to accept things as they are.

Pickford also needs to develop patience, peace and stability by grounding herself in her daily work and behaving consistently and reliably towards others.

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

Pickford cooperates with others in a vigorous and energetic way. Her motto seems to be "one for all and all for one", and she feels strongly connected with others. In fact, Mary Pickford looks upon other people as necessary for a worthwhile life.
