Princess Madeleine of Sweden
general characteristics

Princess Madeleine of Sweden'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 Madeleine's "elemental make-up" is described below. Remember that most people are "unbalanced" or lopsided, and if Princess Madeleine 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.

Princess Madeleine of Sweden values order and security in her life and prefers dealing with known quantities and following clearly defined guidelines in order to achieve her aims. She is ruled by reason rather than emotion and Princess Madeleine of Sweden thinks in clear, practical, no-nonsense terms. She is uncomfortable with ambiguity, emotional impulsiveness or extremism, and things that cannot be explained in rational terms. Even spiritual or mystical realms - if at all of interest to Princess Madeleine - must have either some scientific basis or be palpable to Princess Madeleine through her own experience.

Princess Madeleine thoroughly thinks a situation through before deciding upon a course of action, assessing and analyzing the matter carefully, and she can be relied upon to reach a fair, reasonable, and sensible solution to whatever she is facing.

She is able to handle practical matters very efficiently, using both deductive reasoning and manual skills. However, it is easy for Princess Madeleine of Sweden to become overly "adult" and to loose touch with her spontaneous, playful, vibrant, and childish side. Princess Madeleine can become too organized and controlled, and avoid giving her emotions or creative, playful impulses full expression, thereby creating a certain sense of emptiness. Princess Madeleine of Sweden needs to learn to appreciate a certain degree of "creative chaos"!

She is likely to be overly humble or unsure of herself and to look to others for inspiration, motivation, reinforcement and approval. Tending to be somewhat passive, Princess Madeleine of Sweden must learn how to take initiative and motivate herself.

A lack of warmth (either physical, emotional or both) may be evident in Princess Madeleine and can manifest physically as a low energy level, paleness and lack of color in the skin, or a tendency to be easily chilled. Emotionally, it can be reflected in a marked coolness or aloofness with little spiritedness, joyfulness, or enthusiasm for living. Eating warming, spicy foods, living in a warm, sunny place, and using fire in her daily life (lighting candles, using a wood stove or fireplace for heat) can help balance Princess Madeleine. Also, spending time with warm, cheerful, positive-minded people and developing a philosophy based on spiritual optimism can stir up Princess Madeleine's own zest for life.

On the positive side, Princess Madeleine of Sweden is unlikely to be egocentric and has a capacity for ample patience and peacefulness.

Princess Madeleine has trouble dealing with emotions - both her own and those of others. Princess Madeleine of Sweden often ignores or discounts feelings and the emotional reality of a situation, thus seeming insensitive or uncaring to others. Princess Madeleine needs to develop the capacity to experience deep emotional ties, empathy, compassion and sensitivity to the feelings of others; however, this ability will only manifest later in life rather than in her youth.

Though she may appear emotionally self-sufficient or above it all, Princess Madeleine's tendency to repress her feelings could have physical ramifications; as such, it would serve Princess Madeleine well to learn to acknowledge and express all of her emotions.

Princess Madeleine may also find that she craves fluids or the desire to live near bodies of water as a means to acquire balance.
