Bessy Gatto intuitively senses her need for others and seeks a balance between her individual ambitions and need to give to others and be loved and recognized in return. Marriage and friendship could be realms to which she is especially devoted, but they may also prove to be a source of conflict and disillusion.
Bessy Gatto has a paternal complex. Because she lacked a father figure during her childhood, she developed a system to protect herself. This system helped her when she was a child, but it has now settled into a pattern that interferes with her growth. Bessy has authoritarian urges that are mainly directed at herself. She sometimes feels guilty about her behavior and judges herself harshly. She should build up a strong inner discipline and acquire the strength to face the problems of existence in a detached and mature way.
Bessy Gatto is sober and rather reserved, and may even strike people as harsh and austere at times. Perhaps she was raised in an atmosphere of rigor and sobriety, and, as a result, grew up very fast. She has acquired a spirit of self-sufficiency, tend to be rather uncompromising, and have a touchy sense of her personal dignity and worth. It is almost as though she was fighting an inner battle with her father or a father figure. The psychological models she received from her father or a father figure as a result of her interaction and her own interaction with authority may not have played a major role in shaping her relationships with the outer world and society. She may thus have been forced to compensate for this with individual determination. As a result, although she is skillful, meticulous, conscientious, and efficient, a lack of self-confidence and personal assurance sometimes makes her timid and hesitant. She sometimes feels as though she is only masquerading as a respectable, sober adult. She tends to be far too critical of herself and rarely feels satisfied that she is living up to her ideal. These unnecessary guilt feelings may lead her to turn down the prominent career positions for which she is fully qualified. She is aware that early success is often short-lived and fragile and that time rewards those who know how to be patient and persistent, like her.
Bessy Gatto is a very imaginative person with a fertile inner life, but she doesn’t always have enough energy to follow through on her dreams. She lives in osmosis with her environment and doesn’t usually try very hard. She understands phenomena and events intuitively, without really making any effort, and this makes it hard for her to discipline or shape her thoughts. Her personality is amorphous and disorganized, and as a result she may have some trouble asserting her individuality and making some personal contribution to society through her career. She tends to shut out reality and dream impossible dreams, like her refusal of responsibility and duty. This may be a source of some difficulty for her.
Bessy Gatto is a person with 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, Bessy Gatto sometimes aghast at the discovery of the sheer power of her instincts and feels an imperious need to cope with them. This special consciousness she 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 her to recognize herself in any social or narcissistic models, or identify with any existing roles or attitudes, so she sometimes finds herself forced to assert and express her own identity in a way which may strike her contemporaries as strangely intense if not eccentric.
Bessy Gatto is winning and attractive. She has an appetite for intense emotional experiences, especially in terms of her relationships. Enjoying the power of her personal appeal, she easily controls her emotions and only rarely reveals the true depth of her feelings. Because her instincts take precedence over her sensitivity, she is capable of becoming jealous, possessive, and even rather harsh, without meaning to. More of a flirt than a voluptuary, she is attentive to desire. As a result, her love life will sometimes be casual and complicated.
Bessy Gatto maintains strong ties with her past, and it often seems difficult for her to open her heart to new people. Her love affairs might exist on the surface level, because her lust and sensual desire rarely turn into a need to understand, protect, and care for the other. Moreover, it is difficult for her to meet partners who combine the ideals of the tender parent and the great lover.
Bessy Gatto is emotional and tends to react suddenly and excessively as soon as her sensitivities are touched. Although she values her independence, freedom, and self-sufficiency, she is sometimes frustrated by her need to rely on her family or friends. Moreover, she does not always grant the freedom of other people the same respect as her own. Likewise, she is sometimes angered by expressions of maternal tenderness, as if she feared that it would doom her to eternal dependency. Her ambivalent behavior, full of jagged edges, may be traced back to the relationship she had with her mother or a mother figure. Although she was dependent on them, they may have rejected her. Now this attitude is extended to any situation in which her sensitivities come into play and emotional bonds are liable to form. To ward off her feelings of dependency, she tends to become destructive. Based on denial, her reactions are sometimes fierce, impulsive, and excessive, erratic, or contradictory.
Bessy Gatto is sensitive and compassionate, sacrificing her own interests for the benefit of others. She is romantic and idealistic, but sometimes lacks discernment in the choice of her partners. She is fairly confused and evasive, and has difficulty 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.
Bessy Gatto’s birth chart indicates that her emotional function 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, she is imbued with an eminently subjective and personal idealism.
Bessy Gatto struggles to be comfortable with herself. Her aggressiveness is an obstacle to her relationships, especially with romantic interests, causing clashes and conflicts almost against her will. Her instincts predominate over her mind and her senses supersede or distort her feelings, so her relationships are usually abrupt. She really needs to find an activity which could channel her enormous potential.
A charming woman, Bessy Gatto always stands out in a crowd. She is always elegantly dressed and her social skills are top notch. Because she can’t stand being alone and can’t live without the love and companionship of others, she can easily become infatuated with anyone she meets. By being more selective in who she dates, she can avoid any heartache in the future.
Bessy Gatto 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 are compellingly seductive; unfortunately, her attempts at conquest do not always lead to the fulfillment and satisfaction of her desires. Due to her impulsiveness and impatience to initiate new encounters, her approach to those she is attracted to may sometimes lack tact and delicacy. As a result of the foregoing, it may be somewhat difficult for her to maintain stable and harmonious relationships. Indeed, her emotional behavior is subject to a conflict between her quest for love and her need to satisfy her lust. Her outpourings of affection and her need to be loved in return sometimes create complicated situations in which lust may be confused with love, or love may exist without lust, and she may feel unrequited or unfulfilled. This inner contradiction is a sign of her tendency to derive pleasure from suffering – either her own or that of her partner. The relationship thus becomes the setting for a sort of power struggle, weakening it as a source of psychological equilibrium. Nevertheless, she could sublimate this difficulty through artistic expression.
Bessy Gatto may be characterized by strong sensual and affectionate urges which drive her to seek pleasure. Her need for romantic fulfillment may compel her to marry, because she also seeks the legal and social legitimacy the institution of marriage confers on an emotional bond. Indeed, the household is liable to be prosperous and even opulent, as if this offered further evidence that she had indeed achieved success. However, privately, she might be less committed to certain obligations and duties.
You have an ardent and amorous character, 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.
Bessy Gatto is an intuitive thinker. She does not reason things out through a long, articulate, logical discourse; instead, she seize the visions or insights that spontaneously flash into her consciousness. As a result, if she is an extrovert, she will possess an inventive, innovative spirit gifted for improvisation. If she is an introvert, her mind will be an abundant source of personal inner truths.
Bessy Gatto 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.
Bessy Gatto is an adult who underwent a conflicting situation which prevented her from developing her intellectual and imaginative faculties in a harmonious way. It may be somewhat difficult for her to integrate new ideas and concepts or to give her thought structure and coherence. She has a distaste for study, which might require a great deal of effort for her. She could harbor feelings of insecurity that are so acute that they may undermine her will and therefore her ability to compete. However, if she overcame these emotions, she would see that she has plenty of marketable skills and that many satisfactory solutions to her feelings of ineptitude and inadequacy are within her reach. Because this psychological complex may be related to childhood or adolescent opposition to parental or academic authority, she may not readily accept people who represent law enforcement agencies or power as an adult. She may display some hostility or vindictiveness toward them as a matter of principle.
Bessy Gatto 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.
