Sarah McLachlan
challenges and difficulties

Sarah has difficulty asserting her will and desires directly and openly. She may also suppress her anger and aggressiveness. Developing self-confidence, courage, and faith in herself are important tasks for McLachlan.

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

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

Seeking harmonious interpersonal relationships, cooperation, and togetherness, as well as the desire to please or appease other people, are drives that come very naturally to Sarah McLachlan - so much so that she seeks them out at her own expense. When she is under stress, McLachlan tends to look outside herself for approval or answers, and she leans on others too much. Therefore, developing self-reliance, and the courage to look inwardly for answers and forge her own path through life is a key factor in her self-development.

Sarah McLachlan is often tempted to be less than completely straightforward about her intentions or desires, and she can become enmeshed in a quagmire of "little white lies". Stark honesty - both inward and toward others - is the only way out! This, however, leads to the need to confront some of McLachlan's most deeply ingrained fears, such as "what if they do not like me?" and "what if I have to go through this alone?".

Sarah McLachlan needs to cultivate her ability to be assertive, take initiative and act on her own behalf. Directness and self-reliance are imperative.

It is deep within herself, as Sarah McLachlan faces her own demons, fears, and struggles - those aspects of life that are not easily or readily shared, those parts of her life that Sarah McLachlan keeps hidden from public view where she is most likely to wrestle with these issues.

The qualities described above can also be beneficially channeled into some sort of charitable work, altruistic service or ministering to people in need.

McLachlan is a good team worker and has the ability to lead others. Her relationships and associations with others tend to be harmonious and cooperative. Sarah McLachlan may also have a very industrious family and she tends to be strongly tied to them.
