Princess Beatrice of York
general characteristics

Princess Beatrice of York's fundamental needs, values, and orientation towards life are symbolized by the four astrological elements. Each person has their own unique balance of these four basic energies: fire (warmth, inspiration, enthusiasm), earth (practicality, realism, material interests), air (social and intellectual qualities), and water (emotional needs and feelings).

Princess Beatrice's "elemental make-up" is described below. Remember that most people are "unbalanced" or lopsided, and if Beatrice is lacking or deficient in a certain element (or elements), it simply means that she needs to consciously develop that particular aspect in order to appreciate and/or work harder in that dimension of life.

Sometimes we overestimate the element that we are least endowed with, sensing it as a lack within ourselves, but more often we neglect or ignore it. The qualities described below will be reiterated and explained in more detail in the following pages.

Her life is likely to be full of emotional extremes, turbulence, joy and sorrow stemming from her own passionate nature and unpredictability. Princess Beatrice of York is impulsive and temperamental. For Beatrice, everything is intensely personal and colored by emotion. She may have difficulty viewing a situation from a detached, impartial or rational perspective, and she has little inclination to structure and order her life. However, fostering self-discipline, organization and focus is essential. Otherwise Princess Beatrice of York will be prone to extreme moodiness, alternating between lofty inspiration and despondency.

At times, Princess Beatrice of York feels a great deal of internal pressure due to two of her dominant impulses which tend to conflict with one another. The desire for independence and freedom, the need for self-expression and ego recognition, and the urge to leave the past behind in order to propel herself into new experiences may clash with other, equally powerful needs - namely attachments to people and to the familiar, a compelling urge for emotional closeness, and a desire for security. Balancing these two drives is a significant challenge for Princess Beatrice.

Even though her life may be less balanced and perhaps less stable than that of others, it is unlikely that Princess Beatrice of York would change it because she is very vibrant, sensitive and responsive to the ever-changing, dynamic quality of life.

One of her primary challenges lies in developing a sense of security and stability and adopting a steady rhythm in life. Cultivating self-discipline, patience and endurance and learning to accept realistic limitations will enable Princess Beatrice of York to be more productive and to implement some of her ideas and creative impulses. Princess Beatrice of York is not always interested in the practicalities and compromises required to make her dreams a reality.

At times, Princess Beatrice of York feels out of place in the world, restless, discontent, unable to find her niche and dissatisfied with mundane reality. This may have the positive effect of sparking Princess Beatrice's exploration of the creative, imaginative or spiritual side of life. However, Beatrice tends to resist growing up and learning how to effectively deal with adult responsibility. She also tends to be either bound up with the past or projecting into the future, thereby ignoring the present. To become more grounded in the here and now, Princess Beatrice of York may find it helpful to get massages on a regular basis, make a practice of gentle, rhythmic exercise like walking or yoga, and eat substantial, heavy foods.

As you will read on the next page, Princess Beatrice of York appears reasonable, rational and fair. Beatrice dislikes showing how emotional, temperamental and easily affected she is. Beatrice's communication skills help her to effectively handle her strong emotions and inspirations.
