Sandra Oh
motivation

Although Oh may seem quite poised, even-tempered, balanced and harmonious (as mentioned in the previous chapter), she is actually rather moody and emotional. Inside, she is much more subjective and biased in her attitudes than her fair-minded, reasonable demeanor may imply.

Sandra has powerful emotional attachments to the past, her family, her childhood, places she associates with safety and security, and her beginnings. It is very important to Oh to maintain a connection with her roots and heritage and keep family bonds strong. Loyal, devoted, and sentimental, Oh tends to cling to whatever is dear to her - be it a person, a familiar place, or a cherished possession.

She is sympathetic, nurturing, supportive and very sensitive to the emotional needs of other people. Sandra likes to be needed and to care for others, and she often worries about the people she loves. Sandra Oh has a very strong need for a sense of belonging and acceptance, and much of her life centers on her home. She is more concerned about people and their feelings than with power, achievement, or position in society. Kindness, consideration and tenderness are more meaningful to Sandra Oh than any sort of honor the world can bestow.

She is primarily emotional and her views are often dominated by her feelings and her own personal, subjective experiences, rather than reason, logic or abstract principles. It is difficult for her to judge situations fairly and objectively because her personal sympathies and loyalties usually factor in. Sandra Oh takes things very personally and sometimes builds a wall around herself to shield herself from pain and rejection. Sandra Oh feels rather shy and vulnerable at heart. She also tends to be moody and experiences frequent mood swings. Sandra Oh needs to have a place and time in her life to withdraw, introspect, dream and replenish herself; otherwise Sandra Oh becomes cranky and unhappy with those around her.

Sandra Oh functions in an instinctive, irrational manner and likes to immerse herself in creative activities where she can express her feelings, imagination and instincts. Oh often loves to cook, since it can be both creative and a way to nurture and nourish others. Sandra Oh also has a great affinity for music, because it evokes and communicates feelings that may be difficult or impossible to put into words.

Her compassion, sensitivity, and imagination are Oh's strong points. Her faults include an inability to let go of the past and move forward, clannishness and prejudice, and a tendency for self-pity when facing hardship.

Her career, reputation and public image are very important to Oh. Sandra Oh has a strong desire to be influential or make her mark on the world. She is not satisfied with the personal sphere alone; her ambitions include making a major contribution and receiving broad recognition for her unique effort and gifts. Sandra Oh may undervalue the personal or inner facet of life.

Sandra has lofty aspirations but does not struggle or labor to achieve them. Her self-confidence and inner harmony attract success and benefit her in an almost magical way. Her optimism and cheerful generosity also win Oh many allies and successes in life.

She is imaginative and sensitive to anything colorful, beautiful or magical. She is attracted to artistic and creative pursuits, music and mysticism. Her spiritual values color Sandra's whole perspective and approach to life. She is idealistic and perhaps impractical.

Sandra Oh undergoes deep, transformative changes in her life with relative ease and a minimum of conscious resistance. Because she does not avoid the depths, Oh has access to a lot of personal power and strength. Without realizing it or seeking it, Sandra is apt to have quite a potent effect on the people she comes into contact with, even superficially. Others sense that Sandra Oh is a force to be reckoned with.
