Rebecca De Mornay
motivation

Although Rebecca De Mornay approaches life instinctively and intuitively (as described on the previous page), she also has a very analytical, rational, unemotional side, as discussed below. Her conflicting urges may vacillate between living passionately and dangerously, and being conservative and playing it safe.

At heart Rebecca De Mornay is modest and humble and rarely strives to be in the limelight or in a position of power. Rebecca De Mornay has a sharp analytical mind, a keen eye for detail, and prefers to observe, dissect, and study life from a distance. Conscientious and conservative, De Mornay can be relied upon to be cautious, efficient, and thorough in her work and she takes pride in a job well done. What she may lack in self-confidence Rebecca De Mornay often makes up for in skills - fostering expertise, technical knowledge and competence in a specialized area. She is adept at using her hands to create or fix things, and meticulous attention to detail and careful craftsmanship are her forte. Some would say she is a little too meticulous, for De Mornay can be extremely critical and petty if everything is not done exactly as she thinks it should be, and she worries about things that other people consider trivial and unimportant. Rebecca De Mornay likes to organize, categorize and arrange everything into a logical system and is often distinctly uncomfortable when something does not fit into a neat category. Disorganization vexes De Mornay. She probably wishes that she were not such a perfectionist, for besides being a stickler for details, De Mornay can also be mercilessly self-critical. Whether in her environment or within herself, De Mornay tends to focus on the flaws, with a desire to improve, refine, and perfect. She is strictly factual, truthful, and scrupulously honest in her self-assessment and often does not give herself enough praise or credit.

She is also highly discriminating and may be especially particular about her diet, hygiene, and health habits. Rebecca has high aesthetic standards and refined sensitivities, and is bothered by environmental elements (such as disorder, cigarette smoke, etc.) that others overlook. Her tastes are simple and understated, yet refined. She is truly offended by coarseness, bluntness and vulgarity. De Mornay can sometimes be difficult to live with because of her fastidiousness, sensitivity and idiosyncrasies about food and cleanliness.

Though Rebecca De Mornay seems rather cool and self-contained, she is very helpful by nature and enjoys serving others. She is content to play a supporting role rather than the lead. She is quietly devoted to the ones she cares for.

She is cautious, realistic and practical in her approach to life and disinclined to gamble. Rebecca De Mornay analyzes before she acts. She is sometimes too serious. If De Mornay allowed herself to play and make mistakes, it would be highly beneficial to her health!

Her career, reputation, and public image are very important to De Mornay. Rebecca De Mornay has a strong desire to be influential or make her mark on the world. The merely personal sphere does not satisfy her; her ambitions include making a major contribution and receiving broad recognition for her unique effort and gifts. Rebecca De Mornay may undervalue the personal or inner side of life.

The above description of Rebecca De Mornay is so deeply ingrained that she has little objectivity and often little appreciation for other, different ways of approaching life. Rebecca De Mornay tends to be one-sided. There is little ambiguity in her makeup and she generally knows what she wants and what will make her happy.

De Mornay can be an inspiring leader of a team or group effort. Her dynamism and energy evokes the same in others, and she sees healthy competition between people as a plus. Generally, Rebecca De Mornay enjoys fine health as well.

Rebecca De Mornay aims high, dreams big, and has a tremendous sense of what she is capable of achieving. Overconfidence, grandiosity, lack of humility and/or extreme discontent in modest circumstances may be her faults. Generally, however, De Mornay's great expectations and enterprising spirit lead to success. Business, especially when there is an element of risk and speculation involved, is ideally suited to Rebecca.

While Rebecca De Mornay does have a strong drive, she frequently holds herself back. One of her challenges lies in learning to endure frustration and to patiently overcome the obstacles in her life (or her own internal caution and resistance!).

However she also has a more somber side, which keeps De Mornay's optimism from becoming ungrounded or overblown. Rebecca De Mornay tends to seesaw between her faith, vision and high aspirations, and her caution and realism (or fear!). She cannot and does not rely on good luck or grace alone, and she accepts the need for hard work. Her skeptical or "somber" side is described below.

Rebecca has to overcome considerable hardship in order to fulfill her personal destiny. However, she does have the strength and stamina necessary to do so. Support and helpful guidance from her father or other significant men in her life may well be lacking. In fact, their disapproval of Rebecca and their harsh criticism are apt to be two of her greatest handicaps, and at times she may feel quite discouraged and alone. But true self-reliance and a solid sense of her own powers may well be the silver lining to that cloud in her life. Rebecca De Mornay needs to learn to follow her own creative impulses and heart's desires, regardless of what her critics or the authorities say.

Although she takes herself and her responsibilities seriously, there is also a part of Rebecca De Mornay that rebels against rules and restrictions and the need to contend with outside authority. De Mornay can feel torn between conforming to the rules or fulfilling her obligations, and breaking free of them. Her wilder side will now be described.

Innovative, original, unorthodox and unconventional, she identifies with the role of a rebel, reformer or iconoclast. Rebecca De Mornay insists upon a great deal of personal freedom and does not easily adapt to others' needs and wishes. Rebecca needs a lifestyle that allows her to be spontaneous. She often feels that she is somehow different from other people and outside of society's mainstream.

Inwardly she is zealous and fanatical, though she may hide her personal desires and intentions, as well as the intensity of her feelings. She is driven by a deep inner sense of destiny and mission and an almost compulsive desire for personal recognition. Rebecca is infatuated with power, incredibly willful and stubbornly fixated on achieving greatness or being someone Special. Rebecca De Mornay tends to worship heroes who have powerful personal magnetism and charisma, and she often seeks to emulate them. Rebecca has potential for tremendous good or tremendous evil.

Her emotions are very intense and Rebecca De Mornay is excited quite easily. Love is very important to her and she is constantly seeking emotional fulfillment, but she will not waste time with casual relationships.

Rebecca De Mornay has a strong need for intellectual relationships and associations and she likes to share her intellectual interests with others. This could be in meetings or by joining various clubs and organizations.

She is a bit impulsive and excitable and wants things done quickly. Rebecca De Mornay tends to be very impatient with anyone who is slower or less energetic than she is. De Mornay will fight for what she wants but should guard against mishaps or accidents.

Rebecca De Mornay has a great desire for freedom and independence and is subject to strong emotional tensions. She is very creative and forges ahead tirelessly. But De Mornay tends to make the highest demands on her physical energy and is prone to over-stimulate her nerves.
