Spencer Tracy
drive and ambition

He is non-combative, noncompetitive, and somewhat of a pacifist. Tracy will give something up rather than fight for it. He may seem weak-willed or ineffectual, for he does not have a powerful ego drive for personal achievement and material advantage, or for winning at the expense of someone else. Being first, being best or being on top does not mean much to Spencer Tracy, and he can be quite happy in a supporting role, working for the benefit of others or for a cause that he believes in. Spencer Tracy is gentle and impressionable and is motivated by less mundane and less tangible things than most other people. He may have difficulty formulating clear, definite personal goals and making his way in the world. Spencer has many dreams, high ideals and a strong mystical or religious impulse. Spencer Tracy also has a creative imagination and can successfully apply himself to art or music. Spencer Tracy has a sensitive physique and he needs to maintain good regular health habits in order to build strength and stamina.

Spencer Tracy often buys things on impulse and he can be reckless with his material resources and money. Spencer has certain possessions that he is extremely attached to and possessive of.

Ordinary life often seems drab and uninteresting to Spencer and he must have something that stirs his imagination - a vision or ideal or dream to motivate him. Spencer Tracy has a strong urge to act out his fantasies or to live his dream, and Spencer Tracy will act where others merely talk or dream. Artistic creation, drama or other areas in which Tracy can express himself imaginatively are excellent for him.

Work that only serves his own narrow personal interests does not satisfy Spencer Tracy. He may lack the competitive edge, the fighting spirit, the "me first" attitude that is often required for material advancement and success. He also tends to either overestimate or underestimate his own power and abilities.

Gaining his professional objectives or advancing in his career often requires considerable sacrifice on Spencer's part. Specifically, Spencer Tracy often feels that he must deny or at least compromise some very essential aspect of his in order to succeed professionally, protect his reputation, or what have you - and this is something Tracy may or may not be willing to do. Pure, unrestrained self-expression may well be more important to him than "going places" in a worldly sense. This is not to say Spencer Tracy will not progress or succeed, only that he will do it on his own terms.

Tracy may well have an unusual destiny or pivotal role to play in a drama that involves much more than his own personal ambitions and professional aims. This could involve uncovering secrets, bringing deception, cruelty, or injustice to light, or making fundamental changes in some field. Spencer's work may also include dealing with life and death situations, crises, and emergencies. Somewhere along the way, fate may force Tracy's hand - and it may require some self-sacrifice on his part. On the other hand, his real work may be rather subtle - a quiet transformation of a particular area or field. Spencer Tracy is meant to do in-depth work.
