The Rock
challenges and difficulties

Dwayne Johnson doubts his own intelligence and mental capacities, and he may work very hard at studies in order to compensate for this. The Rock is often overly serious and disinterested in light or superficial conversation. Spontaneous communication, social give-and-take, and making small talk are likely to be difficult for him.

The Rock may be plagued by fear of the unknown, of change, and/or of death. He strongly resists changes and transitions rather than greeting them with curiosity or a spirit of adventure, which makes them much harder for him.

On another level entirely, The Rock is very careful about joining forces, and especially his material resources, with others. Dwayne Johnson wants to keep his own and other people's property and assets very distinct.

His faith, optimism, and sense of possibilities are tempered by a great deal of caution, and often doubt or skepticism as well. Whatever hopes or visions The Rock has for his life are firmly held in check by his sense of reality. At times he may wish for more freedom, but The Rock also fears it and holds back. The Rock may blame practical limitations, some external condition or the prevailing Authority for his own inhibitions.

The conflict between spiritual needs and ideals versus material desires or limitations of the "real world" is one of The Rock's ongoing challenges. It may be hard for The Rock to sort out his true values, especially when he is enmeshed in the demands of mundane life. Times of retreat, isolation, meditation and prayer could be helpful to Dwayne Johnson in this regard. Finding inner strength through spirituality and attunement to a higher source is ultimately the answer for him.

When he is with others, The Rock may often suddenly become inhibited. He is inclined to be afraid of confrontations and probably will avoid group activities as much as possible.

Now we will discuss patterns of behavior which The Rock instinctively and habitually reverts to when under stress - a mostly subconscious process that he is apt to over indulge in because it is so familiar and hence easy for him. The direction The Rock needs to follow in order to develop balance, greater awareness, and wholeness is also described.

The Rock has a great capacity for sympathy, tenderness, and caring, which is a gift that he is apt to over bestow at times. For balance, The Rock needs to foster mature self-discipline, self-control, and personal responsibility.

When under stress, he has a strong instinct to retreat back to the nest, to be a child again, or to become overwhelmed with feelings and longings to be taken care of. Also, he may encourage others to depend on him emotionally (and otherwise) to an unhealthy degree. The Rock needs to learn how to set limits and to turn off the flow of support when necessary.

It is in trying to strike a balance between Dwayne Johnson's inner, personal life and his career or involvement with the world at large that he is most likely to wrestle with these issues. The Rock needs to focus attention on his home and family situation, and create a secure inner anchor.

He is somewhat restless and nervous, but enjoys communicating with people and is constantly confronting others with his new ideas. The Rock has the ability to develop new relationships quickly and he can also be a stimulating force in group activities.
