Nancy Spungen
challenges and difficulties

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

She is very conscientious, responsible, and concerned with her duty, her public image and reputation, and becoming a person of stature in the world. Nancy Spungen understands the need for hard work and careful planning in order to accomplish anything substantial and she is capable of much self-discipline and patience once she sets her sights on a goal.

But Nancy Spungen is very judgmental and hard on herself if she fails to attain success, and she can become dry, bitter, or cynical if the world does not recognize her efforts.

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

She is capable of withstanding outside influences and remaining constant and steady on her path, but when under stress Nancy Spungen becomes downright obstinate and implacable, resisting any change no matter how necessary or desirable the change may be. Tenaciously trying to preserve the status quo and hold on to what she has, she is apt to ignore the subtle signals she receives about needing to do something differently, which often leads to a crisis.

Nancy Spungen needs to learn the limits of her ability to control life, and to accept and even embrace change and loss of the familiar, in order to allow for new life and growth. "Letting go" is a major life lesson for her. Spungen also needs to develop a balanced attitude toward her appetites and desires, as Nancy Spungen tends to overindulge and/or deny herself excessively.

It is in relationships that are more than superficial or casual - in particular in cases where Nancy Spungen has merged emotionally, legally, or financially with another person - that she is most likely to wrestle with these issues. Spungen will see these issues arise in close partnerships of any kind, especially when there is a mutual dependency involved. Dealing with in-laws, inheritances, and legal matters involving joint custody, shared assets, and resources is also a part of this.

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

Nancy Spungen should develop faith and confidence both in herself and in a higher power that can guide, nourish, and help her. She needs to expand her willingness to dream and envision better things in life by studying religion, philosophy and other subjects that enable her to acquire a larger, more inclusive view of the world.

Being generous with her time, energy and resources in helping others achieve a better life will in turn benefit Nancy Spungen.

Nancy Spungen 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 Spungen'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 Nancy's path.

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

Nancy Spungen tends to be a bit too idealistic and may place too much hope in her relationships, resulting in frequent disappointments. Nancy could be attracted to naive people, but some of her contacts may also turn out to be swindlers.
