Alicia Dove tries to restrain and control her instincts, but they are always there, resisting her attempts to ignore them. She adopts a fairly ascetic lifestyle in order to try and control them, but this attitude is not entirely innocuous. If she hopes for a more harmonious development, she will do well to realize that instincts can be tamed; they do not react positively to being trampled.
Alicia Dove has a taste for luxury and magnificence, for a dazzling social life and a distinguished career. When things are going well for her, she tends to think of herself as the center of the universe, an attitude which those close to her do not always appreciate. Although she is quite likely to succeed in her ambition to become wealthy and popular and lead a remarkable life in the outer world, her lack of moderation and overweening self-confidence expose her to some danger. Her exaggerated optimism could create difficulties by causing her to make errors in judgment.
Alicia Dove was born with a strong will and a sensitive nature. She often has trouble expressing her emotions, but she has a lively sensitivity that allows her to feel lasting passion. As she grows older, she is likely to come into her own and acquire great intellectual and spiritual wisdom. Her honesty, integrity, and sense of duty will win her recognition and appreciation. Alicia is not especially enterprising, but she will move into a high-level career position as soon as she is sure of her abilities.
Alicia Dove tries to gain approval from others by showing that she is worthy of their affection. However, her pessimism remains, and the severe taboos she unconsciously places on herself keep her from developing quickly.
A Alicia Dove has an inalienable awareness of the void and the vanity of existence. She is sometimes disoriented and deconstructed by an unknowable, unconscious force and tends to ignore or disparage the superficial pleasures and pains of daily life, preferring to dive into the depths of human experience as deeply as her intellectual, emotional, and spiritual capacities permit. Grappling with her “fundamental nature,” with the deepest and most primitive part of herself, Alicia Dove sometimes aghast at the discovery of the sheer power of the life instinct and feels an imperious need to cope with it. This special consciousness Alicia Dove has been endowed with is somewhat beyond the bounds of conventional schools of human understanding and thought and may be a source of identity problems for her at the outset. It is not easy for Alicia Dove to recognize herself in any social or narcissistic models or identify with any existing roles or attitudes, so she sometimes finds herself forced to construct and assert her own identity on a basis which may impress others with its intensity, if not its eccentricity.
Alicia Dove enjoys physical and mental freedom. Her youth and home may have been of the rootless, wandering type, which has given her a taste for movement and independence. She needs to be aware that her life has a purpose and hunt for it in various belief systems, both traditional and new age. In fact, she has an unmistakable gift for philosophy. The faraway appeals to her, and travel is likely to be an important aspect of her life.
Although Alicia Dove’s demeanor is cool and distant, she is extremely sensitive. In some cases, her rather austere and rigid behavior and her refusal to yield too readily to sentimentality discourage others from being too demonstrative of their tenderness and affection. She has spells of melancholy in which she does not feel worthy of being loved and tends to forbid herself emotional fulfillment. An austere or somewhat traumatic childhood experience may be the source of this behavior. She may have suffered rejection in her infancy, and, as a result, lacked the parental love which is essential to the cohesion of a personality and identity. In order to feel secure, and to protect herself from ever suffering rejection or abandonment again, she withdrew into herself and developed her aloofness as a defense mechanism. When she finally lets down her defenses and allows herself to express her feelings, she tends to become impassioned and exalted. Alicia is fairly introverted and egocentric and has a powerful sense of her own identity.
Alicia Dove resents having to impose limitations on herself, and she may sometimes try to dodge obligations and commitments. The obstacles and hindrances reality places on her path to personal and social development tend to depress her. She sometimes broods bitterly about the frustrations to her self-fulfillment and might have a fairly pessimistic vision of society and its possibilities.
Alicia Dove’s sensitivity may sometimes overwhelm her partners, and her compassion for the other is profound. She readily sacrifices her own interest to others, to provide help and assistance. A romantic as well as an idealist, she sometimes lacks discernment in the choice of her partners. She is fairly confused and evasive and has trouble expressing her feelings clearly. Nevertheless, she is capable of devoting herself entirely to the person she loves. She has a tendency to daydream and become lost in herself.
Alicia Dove’s birth chart indicates that she has an emotional function that is usually expressed carefully and reasonably. Alicia Dove tries to rid herself of all partiality and try to get some perspective and distance before making an emotional commitment.
Alicia Dove finds the atmosphere of the home somewhat constricting. She should continue to pursue a career outside in order to relieve the pressure.
Alicia Dove’s love life is full of ambivalence. Although she is sentimental, she is likely to be fickle sometimes, and despite her deep sensual urges, she may sometimes be extremely idealistic and spiritual. The result is relative instability and confusion. She might suddenly allow herself to be enchanted by a dream person when she is in the midst of trying to control her sex drive and attain true spiritual fulfillment. Conversely, she may commit herself to an exceptional marriage based on mutual devotion and great high-mindedness.
Alicia Dove has the fiery, importunate nature of a fervent lover. Indeed, affairs of the heart are one of her main purposes in life. Her personal charm and magnetism give her nearly irresistible powers of seduction, and nearly every one of her well-aimed attempts at conquest leads to the fulfillment and satisfaction of her desires. Due to her impulsiveness and impatience to initiate new encounters, her approach to members of the other sex may sometimes lack delicacy.
Alicia Dove has an ardent and amorous character, and her relationships are enlivened by intensity and passion. A charmer perpetually engaged in a quest for the ideal love, she is often more in love with the idea of love than with a partner. As a result, her love life may be subject to some instability. She is generally attracted to original people who defy norms, standards, and classifications, and expect them to amaze and fascinate her. Her greatest contradictions surface when an intimate relationship is established. Although she merges her ego entirely into the couple, she is likely to demand a total autonomy and liberty which are inimical to intimacy. If her partner charms and captivates her long enough, there is some possibility that they will form a more solid bond with her; otherwise, she is likely to yield to her need for novelty and fall under the spell of an entirely different person who exerts a new kind of charm for her.
Midlife may be a turning point for her from this point of view. Her contradictory attitude may in some ways hide a compulsion to reject and deny the bonds of dependency inherent to a love relationship. Her behavior enables her to remain aloof, to commit herself only halfway without consciously admitting it to herself, and to avoid feeling guilty if and when she loses interest. An insatiable appetite for novelty and exaltation sometimes keeps her from forming stable relationships. Indeed, she is tormented by the struggle between her undeniable need for affection and an equally imperious desire for personal progress and emancipation. As a result of this inner turmoil, her romantic aspirations are usually sabotaged sooner or later by her conviction that her partner has become an obstacle to her individual progress. Because she thinks of love as a restraint, she may even eventually consciously refuse any emotional approach to love interests. As an ascetic, she will try to deflect the love function from its natural target and use the energy and bliss it generates for other purposes, the process psychologists call sublimation. However, she is also likely to meet “the one” who inspires her to initiate a change in her behavior.
Alicia Dove considers the input from her subjectivity and emotions as dynamic which she tries to tune out to go straight to the essence of knowledge. As a result, regardless of her field of study, she tries to obtain perspective. She will elaborate a thought on the basis of fairly warm, abstract logic, supported by sober, concise, and immaculate reasoning. Her choice areas of study could be mathematics, philosophy, legislation, or political science. Ideologies, theories, and any other system of reasoning could serve as “food for thought” for her.
Alicia Dove expresses her thoughts and ideas in direct, spontaneous outbursts. Alicia is fairly extroverted and eager to discover and understand the outer world. An idealist, Alicia looks forward to a bright future but is sometimes subjective and reckless.
Alicia Dove has a great deal of intuition but sometimes has problems organizing her thought processes and making an intellectual commitment. The concepts of boundary and structure are inimical to her mind, which is open and all-encompassing, premonitory, and web-like. Her thoughts may be verbally indeterminate, vague, and ill defined. She tends to understand or sense things globally, without always noticing their component parts. Usually, she can’t see the trees for the forest. In daily life, although her perceptions are lively and subtle, she may display a kind of absent-mindedness, out of a fear of annoying people with her shrewdness or of fighting to assert herself. Her imagination sometimes escapes from the confines of logic, cringing from a confrontation with reality. This unwillingness to face the real world may cause relationship or career challenges.
