Pierre Cardin
challenges and difficulties

Pierre Cardin takes his personal relationships so seriously that they may seem more like work, constant effort, and compromise, rather than a free and enjoyable sharing. He may feel that relationships in general require more of him than they are worth, and Pierre enters into any close relationship cautiously and conscientiously. Pierre Cardin also fears entrapment in close relationships.

Cardin is generally not a "joiner" and he does not feel comfortable in clubs, organizations or other groups of people that are centered on some common ideal or interest. If Pierre Cardin does participate in a group, he may find the rules and procedures restrictive - or he may simply feel that he does not fit in with the others.

Being alone or with older, more experienced people suits Pierre Cardin better than being with groups of his own peers.

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

Instinctively he is a fighter and an individualist who can stand alone when necessary. Very often, however, Pierre stands alone when he does not need to, not realizing the support, assistance, and resources others may have to offer. Pierre Cardin has a tendency to "reinvent the wheel" and to feel that he must be self-reliant and that only he can come up with the answers he needs. Implicit in this attitude is a kind of arrogance as well as a rather competitive approach, which - at its worst - can alienate him from others, or make Pierre Cardin feel that "it is me against the world".

Social skills and graces and what Pierre Cardin calls social "games" do not come naturally to him. Pierre Cardin needs to learn how to share and join others, and how to negotiate and resolve conflict with others in a cooperative way.

It is in any involvements he has with teams, clubs, organizations, networks, and the like that Pierre Cardin is most likely to wrestle with these issues. The qualities described above need to be channeled into some sort of group effort or experience, or have some impact on society at large.

The following are specific activities that will support Pierre Cardin in his growth. These may or may not feel natural to Cardin, and he may initially resist or feel awkward about them, but they are crucial to his path to wholeness.

Pierre Cardin should develop faith and confidence both in himself and in a higher power that can guide, nourish, and help him. He needs to expand his willingness to dream and envision better things in life by studying religion, philosophy and other subjects that enable him to acquire a larger, more inclusive view of the world.

Being generous with his time, energy and resources in helping others achieve a better life will in turn benefit Pierre Cardin.

Pierre Cardin should foster self-discipline and learn to handle responsibility. He may shoulder an inordinate amount of responsibility as well as burdens that sometimes limit Cardin's activities and opportunities in life. However, this is a maturing and ultimately empowering process. He is also likely to be offered positions of tremendous responsibility, whether Pierre really wants such jobs or not, usually because he has invested real effort and made some sort of substantial contribution.

There may be considerable obstacles in his path - more adversity than others seem to face - and Cardin's task is to learn to cope with pressure and persevere.
