What does Bárbara de Regil’s psychology tell us about them?

Bárbara de Regil is searching for stability. She wants to find a firm, unchanging structure for her life. But her efforts to achieve this ideal are often vain, because unconsciously, she is also inhabited by the opposite desire. Every time she reaches what she believes to be a good balance, she realizes she wants something entirely different. She should become aware that the concepts of stability and balance are difficult to apply to life. By definition, life is movement, change, and perpetual instability.

Bárbara de Regil has a paternal complex and, as a result, some trouble finding her identity. Perhaps her father or a father figure was 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 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, 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.

Bárbara de Regil’s personality and behavior are liable to be disrupted by a contradiction between the masculine and feminine archetypes ruling her psyche. Because her sensitivity is in conflict with her determination, her attitude and performance may be moody, fluctuating, and uncertain. Usually, she has the feeling she has to make superhuman efforts to succeed in assuaging her yearnings and fulfilling her ambitions. Her unconscious, sensitive side often disapproves of her conscious endeavors and stealthily works to defeat them, causing crucial omissions, mistakes, and gaps which effectively sabotage her plans. In her relationships, the images she builds up and projects on the other are contradictory. As a result, any bond, even if it is pleasant and positive, also grates on her nerves. She finds it dissatisfying and irritating at the same time.

You are a sober and rather reserved person who may even strike people as harsh and austere at times. Perhaps you were raised in an atmosphere of rigor and sobriety, and, as a result, grew up very fast. You have acquired a spirit of self-sufficiency, tend to be rather uncompromising, and have a touchy sense of your personal dignity and worth. It is almost as though you were fighting an inner battle with your father or a father figure. The psychological models you received from your father or a father figure as a result of your interaction and your own interaction with authority may not have played a major role in shaping your relationships with the outer world and society. You may thus have been forced to compensate for this with individual determination. As a result, although you are skillful, meticulous, conscientious, and efficient, a lack of self-confidence and personal assurance sometimes makes you timid and hesitant. You sometimes feel as though you are only masquerading as a respectable, sober adult. You tend to be far too critical of yourself and rarely feel satisfied that you are living up to your ideal. These unnecessary guilt feelings may lead you to turn down the prominent career positions for which you are fully qualified. You are aware that early success is often short-lived and fragile and that time rewards those who know how to be patient and persistent, like you.

Barbara de Regil prefers to follow a plan that is based on logical or moral reasons. She does not express her personal feelings or emotions easily, but this can make her seem rigid. Barbara is a conscientious person who thrives in a work environment. She has a natural taste for clarity, detail, and technique, which would make her successful in a career as a scientific researcher or high-tech designer.

Barbara de Regil has a sensitive and affectionate nature. She seeks tenderness and gentleness more than passion. Her relationships with others are smooth and pleasant, and she has a natural sense of tact and social grace.

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

Although you maintain a cool demeanor, you are actually quite sensitive. In some cases, your rather austere and rigid behavior and refusal to yield too readily to sentimentality discourage others from being too demonstrative of their tenderness and affection. You have spells of melancholy in which you do not feel worthy of being loved and tend to forbid yourself emotional fulfillment. An austere or somewhat traumatic childhood experience may be the source of this behavior. It is difficult for your inner self to be detached from this past life, and you sometimes have trouble reconciling the image you have of yourself as an adult with the one you acquired back then. The idea you have of yourself as an individual is related to the image your parents projected onto you as a child. Nevertheless, the past is history, and you are now an adult. It should be easy for you to rid yourself of these phantoms through self-work. You have the ability to overcome your mistakes and great endurance and will power to achieve your goals. However, you must not repress your sensitivity in order to succeed.

Barbara de Regil is insecure and craves order in her life. She is rigid and might struggle to make friends easily. She is also wary of relations with those she is most attracted to. Barbara is gifted with worrywart skills.

You are emotionally intense and react quickly and excessively when your sensitivity is touched. Although you believe that your independence, freedom, and self-sufficiency are important values, you sometimes feel frustrated by your need to rely on your family or friends. Additionally, you do not always grant other people the same respect you give to yourself. Likewise, you can be angered by expressions of maternal tenderness, as if you feared that it would doom you to dependency. Your ambivalent behavior, full of jagged edges, may be traced back to your relationship 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 prone to form. To avoid dependency, you sometimes become destructive. Based on denial, your reactions may be fierce, impulsive, excessive, erratic, or contradictory.

Barbara de Regil has a sensual and affectionate nature which is sensitive to physical attraction. This type of sensitivity, combined with her productive urges, may be expressed in an artistic form. As for her feelings, they are usually slow to take root. But once she is conquered by love, she forms a deep and lasting bond. Although she is loyal, she may also display a tendency to be somewhat possessive.

Barbara de Regil’s birth chart indicates that she has an emotional function which is expressed in a direct and fairly impulsive way. She enjoys reaching out to other people and making discoveries. An eternal teenager with her gaze riveted on the future, Barbara de Regil is imbued with an eminently subjective and personal idealism.

Barbara de Regil is constantly subject to nervous tension, which wears her out and exhausts her. Her mind and body are always feverishly active. She always tends to do too much, to become obsessed with insignificant details, or to panic when faced with the unexpected. She is likely to marry a partner younger than she is, either chronologically or in terms of their sense of duty. But perhaps her second marriage will be more reasonable and satisfying.

Barbara de Regil is always seeking sensual thrills. She could easily thrive on a life of total pleasure, neglecting more serious work. But her marriage will introduce some stability; her spouse will bring warmth and (perhaps) some material assets into her home. Her children, if she chooses to have them, will quickly become extremely important to her; they may have a tendency to be able to make her do whatever they please.

You are a passionate and ardent person, and your relationships 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 a partner. 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. Your greatest contradictions surface when an intimate relationship is established. Although you merge your ego entirely into the couple, you are likely to demand a total autonomy and liberty which are inimical to intimacy. If your partner charms and captivates you long enough, there is some possibility that they will form a more solid bond with you; otherwise, you are likely to yield to your need for novelty and fall under the spell of an entirely different person who exerts a new kind of charm for you. Midlife may be a turning point for you from this point of view. Your contradictory attitude may in some ways hide a compulsion to reject and deny the bonds of dependency inherent to a love relationship. Your behavior enables you to remain aloof, to commit yourself only halfway without consciously admitting it to yourself, and to avoid feeling guilty if and when you lose interest. An insatiable appetite for novelty and exaltation sometimes keeps you from forming stable relationships. Indeed, you are tormented by the struggle between your undeniable need for affection and an equally imperious desire for personal progress and emancipation. As a result of this inner turmoil, your romantic aspirations are usually sabotaged sooner or later by your conviction that your partner has become an obstacle to your individual progress. Because you think of love as a restraint, you may even eventually consciously refuse any emotional approach to love interests. As an ascetic, you 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, you are also likely to meet “the one” who inspires you to initiate a change in your behavior.

Barbara de Regil’s intellect is simultaneously subjective and sensitive, acute and intuitive, always practical and deeply rooted in human experience. Her memory and imagination combined with her shrewdness predispose her to a people-oriented activity. With her memory and imagination combined with her people-oriented activity, she would be a gifted project manager, businesswoman, or scholar of history or literature.

Bárbara de Regil tries to shun subjectivity and be as objective as possible. Her thoughts are usually structured, and her reasoning, based on objective facts or experience, usually relates to practical goals.

Bárbara de Regil 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. She 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. She 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.

Bárbara de Regil 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.
