Michael Jackson
challenges and difficulties

Michael Jackson has a critical, cynical attitude towards many religions and philosophies. Without realizing it, he prevents himself from appreciating new viewpoints and attitudes. Jackson is more rigid and dogmatic than he realizes. His approach may also be too intellectual or moralistic. Michael Jackson takes his own political beliefs and spiritual philosophy very seriously, worrying and fretting if he is not 100% clear about some ideology or theory.

His fears revolve around money and material security, and Michael Jackson works very hard to ensure that his assets are solid. He may be very conservative, even stingy, with his money because he is afraid there will not be enough. He may turn this fear around and become very shrewd about investments and financial matters.

Now we will discuss patterns of behavior which Michael Jackson instinctively and habitually reverts to when under stress - a mostly subconscious process that he is apt to over indulge in because it is so familiar and hence easy for him. The direction Michael Jackson needs to follow in order to develop balance, greater awareness, and wholeness is also described.

Instinctively he is a fighter and an individualist who can stand alone when necessary. Very often, however, Michael stands alone when he does not need to, not realizing the support, assistance, and resources others may have to offer. Michael Jackson has a tendency to "reinvent the wheel" and to feel that he must be self-reliant and that only he can come up with the answers he needs. Implicit in this attitude is a kind of arrogance as well as a rather competitive approach, which - at its worst - can alienate him from others, or make Michael Jackson feel that "it is me against the world".

Social skills and graces and what Michael Jackson calls social "games" do not come naturally to him. Michael Jackson needs to learn how to share and join others, and how to negotiate and resolve conflict with others in a cooperative way.

It is deep within himself, as Michael Jackson faces his own demons, fears, and struggles - those aspects of life that are not easily or readily shared, those parts of his life that Michael Jackson keeps hidden from public view where he 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.

The following are specific activities that will support Michael Jackson in his growth. These may or may not feel natural to Jackson, and he may initially resist or feel awkward about them, but they are crucial to his path to wholeness.

Michael Jackson should develop faith and confidence both in himself and in a higher power that can guide, nourish, and help him. He needs to expand his willingness to dream and envision better things in life by studying religion, philosophy and other subjects that enable him to acquire a larger, more inclusive view of the world.

Being generous with his time, energy and resources in helping others achieve a better life will in turn benefit Michael Jackson.

He is reserved and somewhat conservative in presenting his viewpoints to others and prefers a philosophical discussion rather than small talk. Michael Jackson is quite selective in his choice of subjects and only wants to study what is really of interest to him.
