Persis Khambatta
challenges and difficulties

Persis Khambatta has a penchant for order and precision, and an almost compulsive attention to detail. She is often hypercritical and can be such a demanding perfectionist that she discourages herself or others from even attempting something that will not be done exactly the way Khambatta knows it should be done.

She frequently over analyzes or picks things apart mentally. Persis Khambatta may also be somewhat of a hypochondriac. Persis must learn that she does not have to rationally understand everything in order for it to be valid, and also to relax her unnecessarily high or strict standards.

She may have vague but ever-present feelings of guilt and fear that are difficult to pinpoint or eradicate. It is as if Persis Khambatta does not trust Life itself, and is always seeking ways to defend herself from its dangers and its unknowns. Persis Khambatta must learn to overcome her ingrained habit of discouragement and anxiety, and to see the world more as a friendly place than as a treacherous one.

Persis dislikes tense or frustrating situations and has a strong desire to free herself from them. Acting quickly at times, Persis suddenly overcomes her inner inhibitions. Persis Khambatta also has the ability to aptly grasp difficult situations and to use them for her advancement.

Somewhat shy, Persis finds it difficult to relate to people and tends to withdraw from others. Since it is hard for Persis Khambatta to establish relationships, she would rather be by herself. Persis prefers everything to be simple or plain and prefers a more humble and secluded life.

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

Persis Khambatta benefits by becoming more aware of the rhythm of the seasons and the natural world, learning to slow down and allow life to unfold in its own time. Nurturing a garden, a child, or some other living, growing thing gives Persis Khambatta a sense of inner balance.

Persis Khambatta has a tendency to be deeply suspicious, to not take anything at face value and to see hidden agendas and dark motives even where none exist! Life does not have to be a constant conflict... Persis needs to learn to accept things as they are.

Khambatta also needs to develop patience, peace and stability by grounding herself in her daily work and behaving consistently and reliably towards others.

It is in relationships that are more than superficial or casual - in particular in cases where Persis Khambatta has merged emotionally, legally, or financially with another person - that she is most likely to wrestle with these issues. Khambatta 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 specific habits which are likely to hold Persis Khambatta back, or which she is prone to overdo, especially during stressful periods, include:

Excessive thinking, rationalizing or talking, the overuse or misuse of Khambatta's intellectual abilities and the tendency to allow her energy to be dissipated in trivial activities.
