Pasquale Gravina
challenges and difficulties

Gravina either overvalues or undervalues his possessions and assets. He can also go to extremes in dealing with bodily needs and desires, being either hedonistic or ascetic. Pasquale Gravina may deny himself sensual pleasure and enjoyment of the fruits of his labors. He may also be stingy and unable to give freely. Many times Pasquale Gravina feels that he does not have "enough" to make him feel secure, regardless of how much (money, insurance, etc.) he has!

Pasquale Gravina has a mature, disciplined, serious attitude toward life that colors everything he does. Caution and realism are his virtues though Pasquale limits himself at times by being too careful, shy or fearful, not believing in himself enough, or lacking the required assertiveness. Others find Pasquale Gravina difficult to get to know intimately, as Gravina tends to distance himself from them or to outwardly adopt a rather stern, "adult" demeanor.

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

Cultivating the qualities of empathy, gentleness, and compassion will help counterbalance Gravina's deeply ingrained perfectionism and critical nature. When under stress, he is apt to try to rigorously analyze and focus on what needs to be corrected or improved, and he can easily become problem-oriented and lose sight of the big picture.

Pasquale Gravina has to learn to relax and surrender to the flow of events without having to figure everything out all the time. He should let his feelings and intuitions flow more freely, be more flexible and fluid, use his imagination and let his dreams emerge!

It is deep within himself, as Pasquale Gravina faces his own demons, fears, and struggles - those aspects of life that are not easily or readily shared, those parts of his life that Pasquale Gravina 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 Pasquale Gravina in his growth. These may or may not feel natural to Gravina, and he may initially resist or feel awkward about them, but they are crucial to his path to wholeness.

Pasquale Gravina should care for and nourish children, plants, pets or other people. He needs to make a home, create and sustain strong relationships with his family or a community that can support him and give him a sense of safety and belonging.

Pasquale Gravina should develop his listening skills and deepen his understanding and appreciation of women and their perspective. Pasquale Gravina has to learn to trust his own feelings, intuitions and emotional needs. He needs to care for himself in an accepting, non-judgmental way.

It is in Pasquale Gravina's best interest to take all that is good and helpful from his past and use it in a new way. (If he is so inclined, Pasquale may want to explore the potential of past-life regression to tap into gifts he has already developed).
