Sheila Chandra
in Relationships

Warm, loving and generous in her relationships, Sheila Chandra inspires tremendous devotion and loyalty in her loved ones. This is good, since she would never settle for anything less! Sheila wants to be adored and worshipped like the royalty she feels she is, and it is difficult for anyone to resist the warmth and attention Chandra lavishes on those she cares about. Sheila Chandra has a great deal of pride and needs to be recognized and appreciated. The way to really hurt her feelings is to ignore her. She is genuine, sincere, and has a strong sense of personal integrity. Sheila Chandra hates emotional games and dishonesty.

She is likely to be a great collector of things - a real pack rat in fact - for her belongings give Sheila Chandra a sense of security and continuity with the past, which is important to her. Antiques or articles with sentimental value from Sheila's past are especially dear to her.

Sheila Chandra may also cling rather tightly to money and possessions, keeping them "in the family" rather than sharing freely with those outside of her immediate circle.

There is a side to Sheila Chandra that loves comfort and the easy life, and unless other factors in her chart indicate strong drive and ambition, Chandra can be lazy and overly permissive with herself. She enjoys being taken care of and pampered, and self-indulgence is always a temptation for Chandra. If Sheila's parents made the unfortunate mistake of indulging her too much as a child, this may be a very hard habit to break. Sheila Chandra can be so softhearted and affectionate that it is hard to say no to her. Eating too many sweets is a vice Sheila is particularly prone to.

Tremendously softhearted and sympathetic, Sheila Chandra gives very selflessly and devotedly to those she loves and often allows others to become overly dependent upon her. More compassionate than passionate, Sheila Chandra may become romantically involved with a person because she or she expresses a need for love, rather than out of mutual pleasure or attraction.

She is drawn to sensitive, imaginative, gentle souls - poets, musicians, dreamers - or to someone Sheila feels she can have a deep spiritual relationship with. Sheila Chandra idealizes love and has a very beautiful, romantic vision of what love relationships can be.

Sheila is attracted to foreigners, exotic places, traveling and people who can expand her horizons, teach her something, or show her places and worlds she has never experienced before. Sharing a philosophy or ideal with her love partner is important to her.

Moreover, Sheila Chandra feels love and kinship for people everywhere, not only for her own family, nationality, or group. Finding similarities and making links between people from differing backgrounds or with different perspectives is a gift of hers.

Sheila Chandra simply does not feel alive without vibrant, passionate love relationships in her life, and if her romantic urges are frustrated or if her intimate relationships become too tame or mellow, Sheila Chandra will do something to stir up the flames. Sheila Chandra relates naturally to fighting, competition, tumultuous conflict, and fiery lovemaking. She may be more selfish and demanding than she realizes.

Intimacy does not come easily to Sheila Chandra and she may appear cold or unfeeling to others due to her emotional reserve and caution. Perhaps due to painful relationships and separations in her early life, Chandra does not trust others very easily and it takes a long time to break down all of her barriers and defenses. She may feel that she has few friends or people that really care about her. Sheila Chandra needs to learn to value and love herself more and to express her appreciation for others more openly.

When it comes to love relationships, Chandra is likely to feel pulled in several directions at once. In addition to her desire for depth and security in her relationships, Sheila Chandra has an impulsive side and a need for a lot of variety and excitement, as discussed in the following paragraphs. These urges do not have to conflict, but they certainly can, especially if Sheila acts on her spontaneous impulses without much consideration for their long-term effects on her personal life.

Sheila Chandra is not a traditionalist where love and relationships are concerned, and she often feels that formal commitments and conventional relationships are too binding and restricting. Thus, Sheila is not very comfortable with forming lasting attachments or letting other people depend on her. She may be attracted to wild, unreliable, highly creative and/or unstable people who do not offer her any security. Even if Sheila Chandra professes to want something steady and solid, she is very reluctant to give up her freedom and autonomy for its sake. At best, she is suited to serial monogamy or relationships that leave Chandra a lot of breathing space.

Sensitive and compassionate, Chandra tends to be the "giver" in any relationship. Sheila has high ideals and a refined attitude towards love relationships, seeking to relate in ways that go beyond egotistical and selfish needs. Sheila is attracted to people with artistic or mystical inclinations.

Intimate relationships are the arena in which Sheila Chandra explores the depths she is capable of. She could fall intensely and fanatically in love and be obsessive, extraordinarily jealous or deeply involved with her partners. Chandra will experience both heaven and hell in her closest relationships. There is undoubtedly a peculiarly karmic, fated quality to these relationships, which - though difficult - will teach Sheila Chandra things about herself and about love that she could not learn in any other way. Chandra will often enter relationships which she realizes - rationally - will be very difficult, yet she cannot resist them, nonetheless. Sheila Chandra needs not to avoid berating herself for these "bad" choices; instead, she needs to learn what she can from them.

Sheila Chandra tends to suppress her feelings and she approaches other people with great reserve. She may feel lonesome, but unable to bridge the gap between her and others. But once Sheila Chandra enters a relationship, she will be faithful and steady in her feelings for her partner.

Sheila Chandra has a very erotic and sexual nature and may often find herself drawn to another person by a kind of inner compulsion. Chandra could become quite obsessed by someone and she has a tendency to control and manipulate her relationships.
