Queen Latifah
challenges and difficulties

Dana Owens either overvalues or undervalues her possessions and assets. She can also go to extremes in dealing with bodily needs and desires, being either hedonistic or ascetic. Queen Latifah may deny herself sensual pleasure and enjoyment of the fruits of her labors. She may also be stingy and unable to give freely. Many times Queen Latifah feels that she does not have "enough" to make her feel secure, regardless of how much (money, insurance, etc.) she has!

She may have nebulous but ever-present guilt and fears that are difficult to pinpoint or eradicate. It is as if Queen Latifah does not trust Life itself, and is always seeking ways to defend herself from its dangers and its unknowns. Queen Latifah 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.

Queen Latifah tends to seesaw between hope, optimism, and faith versus doubt and oppression by limitations and practical realities. She needs to overcome impatience and restlessness in order to achieve her dreams and desires for a better life.

The side of Queen Latifah that wants and needs structure, order, stability, and a disciplined way of life is at odds with her urges for unfettered freedom, change, excitement, and discovery. There is apt to be much discontent, inner stress, and tension due to this, and at times Queen Latifah finds it hard to relax. Queen Latifah may act out in a rebellious way now and then, or clamp down hard on herself, in an attempt to strictly control her "wild" impulses. Dana Owens' task is to try to find a reasonable balance between order and creative chaos in her life.

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

Cultivating the qualities of empathy, gentleness, and compassion will help counterbalance Dana Owens' deeply ingrained perfectionism and critical nature. When under stress, she is apt to try to rigorously analyze and focus on what needs to be corrected or improved, and she can easily become problem-oriented and lose sight of the big picture.

Queen Latifah has to learn to relax and surrender to the flow of events without having to figure everything out all the time. She should let her feelings and intuitions flow more freely, be more flexible and fluid, use her imagination and let her dreams emerge!

It is in any involvements she has with teams, clubs, organizations, networks, and the like that Queen Latifah 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.
