Nancy Spungen
motivation

The way Nancy Spungen comes across to others is very congruent with her true nature, so in her case "what she sees is what you get". The description in chapter 3 will thus reinforce what you read about Nancy in the previous chapter.

At heart she is very gentle, impressionable and receptive - a dreamer. The world of her imagination, feelings, and intuition is as real to Nancy Spungen as anything in the outer world, though she may have trouble verbalizing or interpreting her inner experiences in a way others can understand. Mystical, artistic, musical, emotional and imaginative, she has a rich inner life, though Spungen may seem rather unobtrusive and quiet outwardly. Nancy Spungen usually keeps to herself.

Nancy shows great sensitivity and empathy toward others and often senses things psychically or intuitively which prove to be correct. She is tolerant, forgiving and nonjudgmental, accepting people unconditionally regardless of their flaws, mistakes, or outward appearance. Nancy has deep compassion for the suffering of any fellow creature and she often feels the pain of others as if it were her own. Nancy Spungen sympathizes with the needy, the disadvantaged and the misfits of society. She is capable of giving selflessly, living a life of devoted and compassionate service to others, as a healer, physician, social worker or minister. However, Spungen tends to give indiscriminately, to let others take advantage of her kindness, and to encourage the weak to remain so by becoming dependent upon her. Nancy has little sense of boundaries, or of knowing when to say "no". Moderation and self-discipline are not her strong points.

She is a lover and a peacemaker rather than a fighter, and she tries to avoid open conflict. Spungen will patiently ignore or "tune out" problems and hope they will go away by themselves, rather than confront them directly and Spungen tends to lack the positive, fighting spirit that is sometimes necessary to overcome challenges. She is fluid, open, nonresistant and somewhat passive. Nancy Spungen does things in a subtle, often covert, manner.

Her gifts may also lie in the realm of the creative, artistic, or musical, for she possesses great sensitivity, inspiration and limitless imagination. Nancy Spungen has a strong affinity for beauty and love.

Her faults include a tendency to be lazy and negligent, and to wallow in self-pity rather than take strong, definite action to change her life for the better. She also tends to become so detached from her immediate environment that she lives in a disorderly, chaotic sort of hodgepodge, though this probably bothers those around Spungen more than it bothers her.

Nancy Spungen tends to get involved in the helping professions or in activities where her efforts are hidden, behind the scenes, unacknowledged or unknown to the public. Spungen may find it exceedingly uncomfortable to assert herself or get up in front of an audience.

Nancy Spungen tends to see things from her perspective only and to be rather subjective. She also enjoys talking and expressing her views but does not always listen as well. Nancy Spungen has a clear mind, a love of learning and new experiences, and she needs constant mental stimulation and activity.

At times Nancy Spungen may feel an uncontrollable urge to radically alter her direction in life or to act in ways that seem eccentric or at least highly atypical. When her life becomes too predictable, Nancy may do something to upset the status quo, sometimes without realizing why or how she is doing it. These impulses may seem at odds with her conscious intent and desires for herself, and can be unsettling. However, there is a streak of unconventionality and creative genius in Nancy Spungen that needs to be expressed now and then.

She is imaginative and sensitive to anything colorful, beautiful or magical. She is attracted to artistic and creative pursuits, music and mysticism. Her spiritual values color Nancy's whole perspective and approach to life. She is idealistic and perhaps impractical.

She prefers more serious kinds of conversation with her friends and neighbors rather than small talk. Because her communication is clear and concise, Nancy Spungen can impress others by taking control of negotiations or business dealings.
