Paul Dano
challenges and difficulties

Dano both yearns for, and fears, being emotionally vulnerable to others and experiencing deep emotional intimacy. Trusting others and letting them get to know him intimately does not come easily to Paul, and sexual inhibitions may result from this. Paul Dano is very self-protective and may be compulsively secretive. Learning to relinquish control in personal relationships, and to be completely open, is an important task for Dano.

His fears revolve around money and material security, and Paul Dano 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.

He is susceptible to deception by others and may encounter people who dissuade him from his objectives and try to use his vulnerability to their advantage. Paul Dano should watch his relationships very carefully so he will not get seriously hurt or disappointed.

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

Paul Dano needs to take what he has learned (either through formal education or his own questing and life experience) and share it with others, communicate it or express it in a way that can benefit others. Knowledge and understanding, which does not enhance either Paul's quality of life or that of persons in his world, is of little real value. Putting Dano's understanding, philosophy, and convictions into practice in his daily relationships, and in the multiple choices he makes every day, will enable Paul Dano to really test his belief system and discover more about life.

When under stress, Paul Dano is apt to seek refuge in imagining that the grass is greener elsewhere, rather than working with what is at hand. Paul Dano needs to cultivate his ability to live in the present!

It is in fostering a personal vision or philosophy of life, whether through religious or philosophical studies, education or the wisdom of distant lands or cultures that Paul Dano is most likely to wrestle with these issues. Paul Dano needs to cultivate the qualities described above in this endeavor. Long distance communication and involvement with foreigners is likely to be significant to Dano.

The specific habits which are likely to hold Paul Dano back, or which he is prone to overdo, especially during stressful periods, include:

Going to extremes, willful rebelliousness and an instinctive anti-authoritarian attitude. Paul Dano seeks constant (and often purposeless) movement or change, involvement with unreliable people, and individual freedom at any cost.

Dano is somewhat shy and tends to feel inferior when he is with others. Paul Dano is inclined to establish relationships with weak or sick people and is always willing to help or take care of them.
