Vincenzo Bellini
challenges and difficulties

Vincenzo Bellini has a penchant for order and precision, and an almost compulsive attention to detail. He is often hypercritical and can be such a demanding perfectionist that he discourages himself or others from even attempting something that will not be done exactly the way Bellini knows it should be done.

He frequently over analyze or pick things apart mentally. Vincenzo Bellini may be something of a hypochondriac also. Vincenzo must learn that he does not have to rationally understand everything in order for it to be valid, and also to relax his unnecessarily high or strict standards.

Fear of the unknown, of change, and/or of death may plague Vincenzo. 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, Vincenzo Bellini is very careful about joining forces, and especially his material resources, with others. Bellini wants to keep his own and other people's property and assets very distinct.

His aspirations and dreams are always tempered by realism and practical considerations. Vincenzo Bellini pursues his aims in a systematic, disciplined, and thorough manner, and he is willing to takes his time, advancing slowly and steadily on his way towards his goal.

Sometimes Vincenzo Bellini underestimates what is possible, and holds himself back unnecessarily due to a lack of faith or an overly cautious attitude.

Vincenzo Bellini feels that he must work very hard and struggle against tremendous odds that impede his chances of fulfilling his life's ambitions. Vincenzo may adopt a very hard, cynical, or nihilistic attitude that will only drag him down further. There are major problems with his father or figures of authority. Vincenzo Bellini may fail simply to spite "them", without realizing that he is primarily hurting himself. If he can overcome his feelings of loneliness, bitterness or isolation, and direct his energies toward constructive endeavors, Bellini can be immensely effective because of his tremendous tenacity and potential for achievement.

Now we will discuss patterns of behavior which Vincenzo Bellini 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 Vincenzo Bellini 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 Bellini's deeply ingrained perfectionism and critical nature. When under stress, he is apt to try to rigorously analyze and focus on what needs to be corrected or improved, and he can easily become problem-oriented and lose sight of the big picture.

Vincenzo Bellini has to learn to relax and surrender to the flow of events without having to figure everything out all the time. He should let his feelings and intuitions flow more freely, be more flexible and fluid, use his imagination and let his dreams emerge!

It is in his way of thinking, processing information and communicating that Vincenzo Bellini is most likely to wrestle with these issues. In Bellini's relationships with neighbors, colleagues, and acquaintances, he needs to try to bring out the qualities described above.

The specific habits which are likely to hold Vincenzo Bellini back, or which he is prone to overdo, especially during stressful periods, include:

Being bound to past events and experiences because of his desire to belong, deep attachments to family and the familiar (even if they are neither nourishing nor helpful), the desire to nurture or be nurtured by others, and a strong resistance to cutting the umbilical cord.
