Rock Hudson
challenges and difficulties

Hudson both yearns for, and fears, being emotionally vulnerable to others and experiencing deep emotional intimacy. Trusting others and letting them get to know him intimately does not come easily to Rock, and sexual inhibitions may result from this. Rock Hudson is very self-protective and may be compulsively secretive. Learning to relinquish control in personal relationships, and to be completely open, is an important task for Hudson.

His fears revolve around money and material security, and Rock Hudson works very hard to ensure that his assets are solid. He may be very conservative, even stingy with his money because he is afraid there will not be enough. He may turn this fear around and become very shrewd about investments and financial matters.

Somewhat stubborn and self-willed, Rock Hudson persists no matter what obstacles he has to overcome. He has great endurance and strength and he forces himself to work very hard. Rock Hudson may be somewhat one-sided in the pursuit of his objectives.

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

When under stress, Rock Hudson is apt to shut off the flow of his emotions and ignore his needs and feelings in order to do what he perceives as his duty or simply what the practical realities of the situation dictate. This can lead to a certain rigidity and inflexibility. If overdone, self-control, self-discipline, or an exaggerated concern over what society, family or others expect of him, makes life more of a burden than an adventure.

Fostering his tender, caring, feminine, and nurturing aspects is an important step in Rock Hudson's growth. Rock Hudson needs to learn how to nourish and lovingly tend to both himself and others. Letting himself be taken care of sometimes is okay!

It is in his public life and career that Rock Hudson is most likely to wrestle with these issues. The latter will impact Hudson's reputation and standing in his community or professional circle, as well as how Rock Hudson achieves his important life goals and aspirations.

Some of his relationships tend to be a bit peculiar and Rock should beware of becoming involved with bad company. Rock Hudson could be easily lured by others to take part in dubious or underhanded schemes.
