Stevie Nicks
challenges and difficulties

She is very self-conscious and has a great need for ego-affirmation and praise. Expressing herself freely and openly is not easy for Nicks. Stevie Nicks tends to work hard at playing and "having fun", rather than being light-hearted and spontaneous. Developing self-love and self-acceptance regardless of her "performance" is an important task for Stevie.

It may be difficult for Stevie Nicks to play spontaneously or just let her hair down, for she tends to inhibit that side of her by being too self-conscious and concerned with the impression she is making.

Stevie may work very hard at some sport or creative medium in order to excel, for she wants very, very much to be noticed, acknowledged, and recognized as special in some way. Though she may indeed be outstanding, Stevie Nicks also needs to learn to relax and enjoy herself more.

She is suspicious of groups, crowds, and social organizations. Nicks is quick to pick up on social charades and insincerity and avoids the limelight and glamour. Stevie Nicks is direct and to the point in speech and manner, stubborn and inflexible, and often unwilling to communicate her innermost feelings and thoughts.

She is somewhat pessimistic and prone to states of depression. Stevie Nicks 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 Stevie Nicks 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 Stevie Nicks needs to follow in order to develop balance, greater awareness, and wholeness is also described.

Stevie Nicks benefits by becoming more aware of the rhythm of the seasons and the natural world, learning to slow down and allow life to unfold in its own time. Nurturing a garden, a child, or some other living, growing thing gives Stevie Nicks a sense of inner balance.

Stevie Nicks has a tendency to be deeply suspicious, to not take anything at face value and to see hidden agendas and dark motives even where none exist! Life does not have to be a constant conflict... Stevie needs to learn to accept things as they are.

Nicks also needs to develop patience, peace and stability by grounding herself in her daily work and behaving consistently and reliably towards others.

It is in her relationships with others that she is most likely to wrestle with these issues. There is a dynamic balance (or conflict) within Stevie Nicks between acting spontaneously and being true to herself versus modifying herself or her behavior to suit others. Stevie Nicks seesaws between being inordinately concerned with her self to being overly conciliatory and concerned with others' needs, rights, or opinions about her. Learning to act authentically and forthrightly regardless of possible consequences is Nicks' task.
