Woody Harrelson
challenges and difficulties

Woody Harrelson has a great capacity for self-denial in the pursuit of a long-range goal. Woody is capable of hard work and persistent labor, but he may lack the capacity for joy and play. Woody Harrelson often feels burdened by life's demands and responsibilities, and may envy those who seem to attract what they want in life without a great deal of personal effort.

There is a very judgmental, stern, and uncompromising side of Harrelson's that may inhibit him a great deal. Woody Harrelson must avoid becoming cumbersome and cynical, or a rather callous, sophisticated adult whose sense of practicality and realism rob him of the playful, imaginative side of life.

His childhood or his relationship with his parents was restrictive, unloving or unhappy in ways that may prevent Woody from allowing other people to get close to him in later life. Woody Harrelson feels that he was deprived in one form or another, regardless of whether he actually was or not. His early life - at least as Harrelson remembers it - may have been marked by emotional separation or repression of his needs and feelings. Forgiving his parents and/or letting go of any resentments he has about the limitations that he experienced early in his life is crucial. Also, Woody Harrelson needs to build his own solid foundation, and investing time and energy into his home, domestic relationships, and inner life can help Woody accomplish this task.

His aspirations and dreams are always tempered by realism and practical considerations. Woody Harrelson pursues his aims in a systematic, disciplined and thorough manner, and he is willing to take his time, advancing slowly and steadily toward his goal.

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

The side of Woody Harrelson that wants and needs structure, order, stability, and a disciplined way of life is at odds with his urges for unfettered freedom, change, excitement, and discovery. There is apt to be much discontent, inner stress, and tension as a result, and at times Woody finds it hard to relax. Woody Harrelson may act out in a rebellious way now and then, or clamp down hard on himself, in an attempt to strictly control his "wild" impulses. Harrelson's task is to try to find a reasonable balance between order and creative chaos in his life.

At some point in his life Woody Harrelson may experience a tragic love relationship that affects him deeply. He may remain heavily burdened by certain disturbing experiences, thereby rendering Woody cold or bitter.

Now we will discuss patterns of behavior which Woody Harrelson 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 Woody Harrelson needs to follow in order to develop balance, greater awareness, and wholeness is also described.

Woody Harrelson's path lies in his development as an individual, the discovery of his own strengths and joys, the capacity to express his uniqueness and to stand out in a crowd. This involves becoming a leader, even though Harrelson's instinct is actually to be "one of the Indians" rather than the "chief". When under stress Woody Harrelson is apt to seek safety in numbers, to go along with the group. Also, he may believe that striving to do his personal best and to excel is wrong or selfish, but Woody should let go of this notion. Finding his own center and doing what gives him delight and energy is the most worthwhile contribution Woody Harrelson can offer the world at large.

It is in any involvements he has with teams, clubs, organizations, networks, and the like that Woody Harrelson is most likely to wrestle with these issues. The qualities described above need to be channeled into some sort of group effort or experience, or have some impact on society at large.

The following are specific activities that will support Woody Harrelson in his growth. These may or may not feel natural to Harrelson, and he may initially resist or feel awkward about them, but they are crucial to his path to wholeness.

Woody Harrelson should be willing to become more of a free thinker, to experiment and change, to loosen his ties to tradition and the known and to allow for new developments. He needs to practice getting involved in an area involving new techniques, rapid changes and innovation. Woody can be part of the avant-garde promoting such changes - be it in science, music or social relationships. Woody Harrelson has to be willing to be different and perhaps to be considered eccentric or odd.

He is very obliging in his interaction with other people and can easily relate to them. Woody Harrelson is likely to have many friends and acquaintances who share the same ideas and viewpoints as he does.

Woody has the inclination to gossip and spread stories or he could be the subject of gossip himself at times. His perception of partnership and family relationships tends to be somewhat unrealistic, and Woody Harrelson may put up a good front and pretend to have a harmonious life.
