Meryl Streep
challenges and difficulties

Meryl Streep 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 Streep knows it should be done.

She frequently over analyze or pick things apart mentally. Meryl Streep may be something of a hypochondriac also. Meryl 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.

Her fears revolve around money and material security, and Meryl Streep works very hard to ensure that her assets are solid. She may be very conservative, even stingy, with her money because she is afraid there will not be enough. She may turn this fear around and become very shrewd about investments and financial matters.

Her faith, optimism, and sense of possibilities are tempered by much caution, and often doubt or skepticism as well. Whatever hopes or visions Meryl Streep has for her life are firmly held in check by her sense of reality. At times she may wish for more freedom, but Meryl also fears it and hang back. Meryl Streep may blame practical limitations or some external condition or the prevailing Authority for her own inhibitions.

Basically shy, Streep tends to be somewhat inhibited in love relationships and may feel uncomfortable or awkward expressing her love for someone. Meryl Streep longs for love relationships and dreams about love, but she is also inclined to torment herself because of a seeming lack of affection.

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

Seeking harmonious interpersonal relationships, cooperation, and togetherness, as well as the desire to please or appease other people, are drives that come very naturally to Meryl Streep - so much so that she seeks them out at her own expense. When she is under stress, Streep tends to look outside herself for approval or answers, and she leans on others too much. Therefore, developing self-reliance, and the courage to look inwardly for answers and forge her own path through life is a key factor in her self-development.

Meryl Streep is often tempted to be less than completely straightforward about her intentions or desires, and she can become enmeshed in a quagmire of "little white lies". Stark honesty - both inward and toward others - is the only way out! This, however, leads to the need to confront some of Streep's most deeply ingrained fears, such as "what if they do not like me?" and "what if I have to go through this alone?".

Meryl Streep needs to cultivate her ability to be assertive, take initiative and act on her own behalf. Directness and self-reliance are imperative.

It is in her public life and career that Meryl Streep is most likely to wrestle with these issues. The latter will impact Streep's reputation and standing in her community or professional circle, as well as how Meryl Streep achieves her important life goals and aspirations.

Not at all selfish, Meryl Streep has the ability to share the joy she feels with other people. Meryl seems to have a gift for getting more reserved people to open up, teaching them how to give and receive love and affection.
