What does Barbara Corcoran’s psychology tell us about them?

Barbara Corcoran is a meticulous and dogged worker, gifted for tasks which require great precision and discipline. She might struggle with pessimism about her own self-worth and try to compensate for this feeling by constantly keeping busy and devoting herself almost entirely to those close to her.

You have a paternal complex, which makes it difficult for you to find your identity. Perhaps your father or a father figure was absent physically or emotionally during your childhood, which deprived you of the patterns or models which are usually helpful in structuring a personality. Because you might have 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, you were forced to protect yourself against negative influences and find your own system in order to grow and feel secure. Although this system was quite useful to you as a child, it has now settled in to such a degree that it interferes with your evolution. Psychological defense mechanisms and crutches which were once useful now encumber your mind or inhibit your developmental efforts. As a result, in certain situations, it is difficult for you to assert yourself, and you tend to remain an awkward or passive observer. Because your authoritarian urges are mainly directed at yourself rather than others, you sometimes feel guilty about your behavior. You judge yourself severely, and sometimes punishes yourself by setting difficult tasks for yourself. Gradually, you should build up a strong inner discipline and acquire the strength to face the problems of existence in a detached and mature way.

Barbara Corcoran at the moment of your birth was symmetrically aligned with the sun and the moon. This was a sign of harmony between the masculine and feminine archetypes, which was beneficial to you. It was the source of balance and understanding between the conscious and unconscious aspects of your personality, 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.

Barbara Corcoran may experience mood swings, going from phases of frenzy combined with a feeling of omnipotence and exaltation to phases of apathy and inertia. During her “highs,” her behavior is vigorous and dynamic, but it is also likely to be somewhat excessive. These periods tend to be interspersed with “lows,” phases of sluggishness and inhibition, which compensate for her immense need to assert herself as an individual. How can she find a way out of this vicious cycle which uses up so much of her energy? Barbara Corcoran would have to understand that the source of her attitudes and behavior is an unconscious desire for power. We suggest that she meditate upon power, skills, mastery, challenge, desire, and need, her brothers (or brother substitutes, such as friends, cousins, or classmates) – who are key figures – and her adversaries. This should enlighten her. Of course, once she has a clear awareness of her career ambitions and profound desires, she is sure to have plenty of energy to accomplish them.

You are an individualist who is convinced that the most precious values in life are freedom and independence. You have thrown off what you perceive as the burden of the conventions and customs of your social class, and adopted an innovative lifestyle. Your passionate convictions, bordering on proselytism, sometimes trouble your relationships, as you may be an uncompromising partner. You would do well to learn to recognize your own limitations and accept the responsibilities you have to other people, or you are liable to find yourself continually embroiled in conflicting relationships. The roots of your somewhat extreme behavior probably lie in your relationship with your father or your teachers in childhood and adolescence. For one reason or another, you may have rejected the paternal image or refused to identify with your father, in the same way as you now refuse to adopt any values related to convention, tradition, or widespread usage. In every important life decision you make as an adult, you are forced to rely on yourself to elaborate the appropriate behavior, and the limits you must impose on your desires in relation to reality and the law.

Barbara Corcoran is a strong and independent woman. She is fiercely protective of her family and close friends and is fiercely loyal. She is deeply human and deeply emotional, still identifying with vivid childhood memories. She is sociable and sincerely devoted to others, and her mother or a mother-figure had a strong influence on her psyche. Her childhood was an important time in her life, and she still identifies with vivid childhood memories. However, she thrives in the shelter of a family setting, soothed by the presence of a spouse and children. She is fond of security and routine, and being somewhat impressionable and anxious, she may have trouble adjusting to situations which are unfamiliar.

Barbara Corcoran’s intellect is lively, agile, and sensitive. However, she does not always avail herself of it and may be confused or irrational in some situations. Although she enjoys playing with words, ideas, and concepts, her thought sometimes lacks discipline and structure. She is fairly preoccupied with details and may tend to waste her nervous and mental energy in futile verbal outpourings. Moreover, her feelings sometimes blur her objective vision of phenomena and people, which may cause her to make errors in judgment.

Barbara Corcoran is an expansive, affable, and communicative associate. Indeed, some people find her generous almost to a fault! She gives of herself and her resources unstintingly. Paradoxically, there are times when she is self-focused. She reacts instinctively, without taking the trouble to analyze a given situation, and is prone to misjudge. As a result, her everyday life may be riddled with a whole variety of practical problems. Indeed, she senses a conflict between her private life and her family and will sometimes find it hard to fulfill herself in both spheres at the same time. Her attitude toward her private life may inhibit her ambitions for social or career expansion; at worst, society (the law) may impinge on her private life. She should be careful not to project her personal problems onto her partner. If, instead, the two of them analyzed the problem, they might be able to find opportunities to resolve it together.

Barbara Corcoran 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, Barbara was extremely romantic and did not always see others the way they really were.

Barbara Corcoran’s sensitivity 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.

Her parenting instincts are highly developed, and she could find fulfillment through her children.

Barbara Corcoran’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.
