Mia Kirshner
challenges and difficulties

Kirshner is wary of becoming emotionally dependent on others, and may distance herself or deny her needs for relationships of closeness and intimacy so that she will not be vulnerable to rejection or abandonment. On the other hand, Mia Kirshner may cling excessively or need constant reassurance from loved ones and family. Developing a deep, inner sense of security, as well as the ability to give and receive nurturing are important tasks for Mia.

She is serious by nature, and may have difficulty making small talk or participating in friendly, personal exchanges.

Mia Kirshner tries to be strictly accurate and is critical of people who exaggerate or discuss subjects they really know little about. Kirshner withholds her thoughts and opinions until she has thought everything through quite thoroughly, and sometimes Mia's silence discomforts others.

Her mental concentration is very good but her breadth of understanding may not be.

Once she decides what she wants to do, Mia Kirshner will pursue her goal tenaciously and, if necessary, sacrifice a great deal for her deeply felt convictions. This trait tends to make Mia feel a little out of step with others. Mia Kirshner takes things a little more seriously and has an inclination to be somewhat of a fanatic, although probably not flamboyantly so; as a result, others may not be aware of how deeply Mia feels and how driven she is about the things that are important to her. Mia Kirshner has a deep inner resolve and is willing to struggle to do the things that are really meaningful to her, rather than follow an easier but less meaningful course in life.

At times Mia Kirshner struggles with nebulous worries, insecurities and fears that may be difficult to pinpoint. Mostly, she may be afraid of getting acquainted with the inner workings of her mind and soul, feeling uneasy with anything irrational or intangible. Mia Kirshner has to work hard to overcome being overly serious regarding the spiritual side of life, especially if her religious upbringing emphasized guilt and retribution. Reorienting herself in the direction of spiritual optimism will do much to lift the cloud of worry that settles over Mia occasionally.

Mia Kirshner tends to be somewhat gloomy and may feel that life is difficult and that her will is blocked in some way. Mia may find it hard to make decisions and to concentrate on her goals, which she may consider unworthy.

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

It is easy for Mia Kirshner to become distracted from her path by the multitude of interesting choices, possibilities, and options available to her. Mia Kirshner needs to develop single mindedness and focus. Until Mia directs her attention to some of the big questions, such as "What is my life's purpose?" "What is really important to me and essential to my happiness?", she is apt to dabble, scatter her energies in many directions and engage in activities which are entertaining but ultimately neither fruitful nor enriching.

Having an overall vision for her life and aligning her daily activities so that they support rather than detract from Kirshner's larger purpose in life, is a significant step toward her personal development.

It is in her marriage and other intimate, one-to-one relationships that she is most likely to wrestle with these issues. She may see the qualities that she needs to develop more fully (described above) in her partner. It is important for Mia Kirshner to recognize, appreciate, and listen to the people in her life who express such attributes, as well as to develop them herself. Mia Kirshner has to put energy and attention into learning about others, and about herself through others.

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

Mia Kirshner should become more aware of the spiritual side of life and its underlying unity by getting involved in charitable activities and opening up her psychic channels. Meditation that develops Kirshner's intuitive abilities, as well as learning about the unseen side of life through her own dream experiences or altered states of awareness, can be important steps in Mia's path.

Moreover, musical and artistic or imaginative endeavors will be important to her.
