Ashley Strong is fairly individualistic, preferring to work on her own projects independently. Although she sometimes mingles with groups for their competitive atmosphere, she will rarely join in them wholeheartedly, preferring to work on her own projects. A lack of confidence in herself may sometimes create challenges in relationships. Her lack of self-esteem may also sometimes inhibit the full expression of her generosity and love.

Ashley Strong has a paternal complex. As a result, she has trouble finding her identity. Her father, or a father figure, may have been absent physically or emotionally during her childhood, which deprived her of the patterns or models which are usually helpful in structuring a personality. Because she lacked a particular sense of security which could be provided by a paternal presence, as well as the examples of behavior to follow in confronting the difficulties inherent in every life, she was forced to protect herself against negative influences and find her own system in order to grow and feel secure. Although this system was quite useful to her as a child, it has now settled in to such a degree that it interferes with her evolution. Psychological defense mechanisms and crutches which were once useful now encumber her mind or inhibit her developmental efforts. As a result, in certain situations, it is difficult for her to assert herself, and she tends to remain an awkward or passive observer. Because her authoritarian urges are mainly directed at herself rather than others, she sometimes feels guilty about her behavior. She judges herself severely, and sometimes punishes herself by setting difficult tasks for herself. Gradually, she should build up a strong inner discipline and acquire the strength to face the problems of existence in a detached and mature way.

As you were born under the sign of Leo, the two celestial “lights” (the sun and the moon) were symmetrically aligned. This is a sign of harmony between the masculine and feminine archetypes, which is extremely beneficial. It is the source of balance and understanding between the two main psychological realms which may be said to compose the personality. You thus enjoy a positive complementarity and understanding between the conscious and unconscious aspects of your psyche, between your determination and your routines, between your drive for self-assertion and your receptivity, your ideal and your sensitivity. Your parents almost certainly reflected a positive image of the marriage relationship to you, and it is likely that they encouraged you to develop your own individuality. As a result, you were and are able to be comfortable with yourself as you are instead of striving to attain your parents’ ideal. This has definitely contributed to the maintenance of a good relationship with them and the rest of the family. In your emotional relationships with your peers, one of the effects of the masculine/feminine harmony is that the images your ego projects on the other are especially constructive. The bonds of the relationship are not felt to be constraints, the energy which flows between the two people is a source of mutual happiness, not regret. No major personal conflicts are projected onto the “other” – that is, the significant other.

You are an independent thinker who believes in freedom and independence as your most prized values. You have thrown off the constraints of your social class and adopted an innovative lifestyle. Your passionate convictions can sometimes be difficult to live with because you are a demanding partner. You need to learn to recognize your own limitations and accept the responsibilities you have to other people. If you don’t, you are likely to be embroiled in conflicts with others. The roots of your behavior may be found in your relationship with your father or teachers when you were young. For some reason, you may have rejected the paternal image or refused to identify with your father, in the same way that you now reject conventional values. In every important decision you make as an adult, you have to rely on yourself to develop the appropriate behavior and set limits on your desires.

You are highly sensitive and receptive and tend to live in osmosis with your surroundings. Your individuality almost seems to be diluted in a flood of sensations and impressions which are continually washing over you, and you sometimes find it difficult to communicate your feelings to other people or engage in any structured, analytical thought. This may stem from a misunderstanding with your teachers when you were a child. Unable to understand their disciplinary measures or authority, you may have withdrawn into yourself in self-defense. It was then that you constructed your rich inner life, the part of you they could not invade, and cut many of your ties to the outside. Because you enjoyed indulging in your inner life, it may have been difficult for you to acquire an objective vision of reality. As a result, even today, you tend to create imaginary problems for yourself, regardless of the objective facts outside. Although your imagination is a source of inspiration and intuition, your fluid inner structure and organization sometimes make it difficult for you to grasp the essence of your dreams and share them with other people. You are not at all combative, and this tends to hinder your efforts to fit into society and assert yourself productively. You are likely to prefer fantasy to reality, but your refusal to abandon your unattainable dreams is a psychological trap you have fallen into without realizing it. You must understand that by running away from your obligations and commitments, you only increase the feelings of guilt and incompetence which made reality so distasteful in the first place. Once you free yourself from this pernicious process, you have a great deal of potential for fulfilling yourself in the outer world, either by devoting yourself to some sort of social work or by cultivating your considerable artistic talents.

You are a being of awareness and understanding, drawn to the depths of existence. You are sometimes disoriented and deconstructed by an unknowable force, and you find it difficult to identify with the superficial pleasures and pains of daily life. You are driven to grapple with the life instinct, which is beyond the bounds of conventional schools of thought. This special consciousness is a source of identity problems for you at the outset. It is not easy for you to recognize yourself in any social or narcissistic models or identify with any existing roles or attitudes. You have to construct and assert your own identity on a basis which may impress others with its intensity, if not its eccentricity.

Moreover, it is difficult for her to meet partners who combine the ideals of the tender parent and the great lover.

Ashley Strong has a sensitive personality. She may jump to conclusions, which could disrupt relationships, as well as career plans. She is subject to cyclical energy flows and goes from periods of feverish activity to periods of withdrawal and introspection. The aggressive element in her behavior may be explained by emotional problems she may have experienced in infancy: her mother, or a mother figure, may have had an energetic and volatile personality.

Ashley Strong’s intellect is sometimes haunted by disturbing philosophical anguishes and a need for security. As a result, her adaptation to life and surroundings is somewhat complicated. Certain inhibitions may sometimes inhibit her intellectual activity.

You’re emotional, and tend to react suddenly and excessively whenever your sensitivity is touched. Although you value your independence, freedom, and self-sufficiency, you’re sometimes frustrated by your need to rely on your family or friends. Moreover, you don’t always grant the freedom of other people the same respect as your own. Likewise, you can be angered by expressions of maternal tenderness, as if you feared that it would doom you to eternal dependency. Your ambivalent behavior, full of jagged edges, may be traced back to the relationship you had with your mother or a mother figure. Although you were dependent on them, they may have rejected you. Now this attitude is extended to any situation in which your sensitivity comes into play and emotional bonds are liable to form. To ward off your feelings of dependency, you sometimes tend to become destructive. Based on denial, your reactions might be fierce, impulsive, excessive, erratic, or contradictory.

Ashley Strong was having a difficult time distinguishing dreams from reality. Although her bubbling imagination provided an abundant source of inspiration for creative or spiritual evolution, it tended to be less helpful and positive in matters that concerned her self-assertion as responsible and self-sufficient. In a relationship, she was extremely romantic and did not always see others the way they really were.

Ashley Strong’s emotional involvement might be the source of some dissatisfaction for her. The usual romantic behavior and the lifestyle values prevailing in this area are not really appropriate for her. As a result, she seeks few intimate emotional relationships or contacts. She tends to stay in the background and fulfill her emotional needs by sublimating. She might not attain full romantic satisfaction until she reaches middle age.

Ashley Strong always rides on waves of enthusiasm and idealism. She is in love and dashing and uninhibited. She demands a great deal of her companion both intellectually and socially. She dreams of a brilliant partner who can give her a thrilling life and outstanding and unusual success. Once she finds her one-in-a-million mate, she will eagerly support them. However, the dream is not foolproof, because her lack of good judgment and perspicacity may lead her to commit herself prematurely to someone who won’t keep these promises.

Ashley Strong tends to be wary of passion and sometimes tries to make her feelings obey reason and logic. She keeps a cool head, observing from afar the romantic imbroglios of others, which she enjoys analyzing and deciphering. Ashley is skillful at playing hard-to-get or at any other little tricks or techniques which will ensure her success when she wants it. Ashley is likely to remain uncommitted until middle age, keeping her hand in (as it were) with little adventures and romps. But Ashley may change after midlife.

Ashley Strong possesses the ardent, passionate 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.

You have a passionate and ardent character, and your relationships with the other sex are enlivened by intensity and passion. A charmer perpetually engaged in a quest for the ideal love, you are often more in love with the idea of love than with your partners. As a result, your love life may be subject to some instability. You are generally attracted to original people who defy norms, standards, and classifications, and expect them to amaze and fascinate you. Love is often a matter of luck with you. Even when a relationship falls apart, you do not see the experience as a failure or a tragedy; instead, you seem to learn valuable lessons from your mistakes. Psychologically, your emotion contributes positively and efficiently to your evolution. From another standpoint, your acute sensitivity predisposes you to original and subtle tastes; you are so receptive to beauty and attached to the concepts of truth and balance that they may all combine to yield remarkable creative potential.

Ashley Strong has a fairly skeptical temperament which relies on remarkable analytical and critical faculties.

Ashley Strong has a lively and agile spirit. She is curious and open-minded, approaching various life experiences without either dogmatism or prejudice. As a result of the liveliness of her mind, she tends to have an opinion on every subject, but she does not always have the patience or perspective necessary to examine a subject and gain in-depth knowledge of it. Ashley enjoys manipulating expressions and concepts and amuses herself with witty remarks, satire, and controversy. If she learned to control her flow of words better and elaborate her thoughts more, she might make a talented communicator. Because she is often too hasty to formulate and construct the arguments which would back up and inform her ideas, she is sometimes misunderstood. Ashley is often blind to the rashness of her judgments and convinced they are well-founded and objective, which sometimes irritates the people around her. If she were to succeed in disciplining her mind somewhat, she would have innumerable opportunities to apply her communications skills to a great career. However, she would do well to be careful of her nerves.
