Shannon Lee
challenges and difficulties

Shannon 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 Lee.

She is very conscientious, responsible, and concerned with her duty, her public image and reputation, and becoming a person of stature in the world. Shannon Lee understands the need for hard work and careful planning in order to accomplish anything substantial and she is capable of much self-discipline and patience once she sets her sights on a goal.

But Shannon Lee is very judgmental and hard on herself if she fails to attain success, and she can become dry, bitter, or cynical if the world does not recognize her efforts.

Her faith, optimism, and sense of possibilities are tempered by much caution, and often doubt or skepticism as well. Whatever hopes or visions Shannon Lee has for her life are firmly held in check by her sense of reality. At times she may wish for more freedom, but Shannon also fears it and hang back. Shannon Lee may blame practical limitations or some external condition or the prevailing Authority for her own inhibitions.

The side of Shannon Lee 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 Shannon finds it hard to relax. Shannon Lee 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. Lee's task is to try to find a reasonable balance between order and creative chaos in her life.

At times Shannon Lee struggles with nebulous worries and insecurities, fears which may be difficult to name. Mostly, she may be afraid of getting acquainted with the inner workings of her mind and soul, feeling uneasy with anything irrational or intangible. Shannon Lee has to work hard to overcome being overly serious regarding the spiritual side of life, especially if her religious upbringing emphasized guilt and retribution. Reorienting herself in the direction of spiritual optimism will do much to lift the cloud of worry that settles over Shannon occasionally.

Her outlook on life is inclined to be somewhat negative and Shannon Lee tries to avoid relationships and social interaction as much as possible. There is a morose side to Shannon's nature that makes her feel that no one cares about her, that life is difficult and perhaps not even worthwhile.

Lacking confidence in herself, Shannon Lee has the feeling that her luck has abandoned her. She is inclined to sit and wait for the right opportunities to come along, placing too much emphasis on wishful thinking and is disappointed when nothing happens.

She is somewhat pessimistic and prone to states of depression. Shannon Lee may feel like withdrawing from everything and that she is not adequately equipped to handle her life. She may need someone else's point of view to balance her overly pessimistic outlook.

Now we will discuss patterns of behavior which Shannon Lee 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 Shannon Lee 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 Lee's 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.

Shannon Lee 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 fostering a personal vision or philosophy of life, whether through religious or philosophical studies, education or the wisdom of distant lands or cultures that Shannon Lee is most likely to wrestle with these issues. Shannon Lee needs to cultivate the qualities described above in this endeavor. Long distance communication and involvement with foreigners is likely to be significant to Lee.

The specific habits which are likely to hold Shannon Lee back, or which she is prone to overdo, especially during stressful periods, include:

Shannon Lee tends to over-rely on luck or grace, living for tomorrow and gambling. Shannon is overconfident and tends to overextend herself and take on more than is humanly possible. Shannon is often dogmatic about her philosophy of life or religious beliefs.

Going to extremes, willful rebelliousness and an instinctive anti-authoritarian attitude. Shannon Lee seeks constant (and often purposeless) movement or change, involvement with unreliable people, and individual freedom at any cost.

She is gay and cheerful in the company of others and happy to be with them. Shannon Lee is fond of telling jokes and is likely to entertain everyone. Her relationships with others are inclined to be for a common purpose.
