Bev Perdue’s confidence in herself sometimes falters, and she might try to compensate for this weakness by insisting on her authority over others. With the people she is emotionally committed to, the same nagging feelings of insecurity prevent her from expressing her generosity and love fully; her extreme independence sometimes hides an inability to abandon herself and a lack of assurance.

You were never given the opportunities that other children get to learn how to relate to their parents or how to develop a personal system. As a result, you were forced to develop psychological defense mechanisms in order to survive. These mechanisms are now so entrenched that they inhibit your ability to grow and develop as an individual. You may find it difficult to assert yourself in certain situations, and you may often feel guilty about your behavior. You are also prone to judging yourself harshly, which can lead to self-punishment. However, with time and effort, you can develop a strong inner discipline and learn to deal with the challenges of life in a mature and detached way.

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

You may be subject to mood swings, going from phases of frenzy combined with a feeling of omnipotence and exaltation to phases of apathy and inertia. During your “highs,” your 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 your immense need to assert yourself as an individual. How can you find a way out of this vicious cycle which uses up so much of your energy? You would have to understand that the source of your attitudes and behavior is an unconscious desire for power. We suggest that you meditate upon power, skills, mastery, challenge, desire, and need, your brothers (or brother substitutes, such as friends, cousins, or classmates) – who are key figures – and your adversaries. This should enlighten you. Of course, once you have a clear awareness of your career ambitions and profound desires, you are sure to have plenty of energy to accomplish them.

Bev Perdue has a great potential for creative, constructive accomplishments; however, it is sometimes difficult for her to gain access to this part of herself. She is confident in herself and life but may tend to be nonchalant. Sometimes she needs a little stimulation to get herself rolling and take some initiative. Her optimism and inner certainty do not always drive her to give her utmost efforts to achieve a goal. The communications skills she possesses are an advantage as well as a handicap. She makes use of her theatrical gifts, convincing eloquence, and ability to listen. The best careers for her would be teaching, communications, philosophy, the legal profession, theater, and public relations.

Bev Perdue 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.

Although your demeanor is cool and distant, you are extremely 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 any emotional fulfillment. Although your inner self is often at odds with your outer self, 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, as well as great endurance and will power to achieve your goals. Nevertheless, you must not repress your sensitivity in order to succeed.

Although you keep a tight grip on your emotions, you often have an appetite for intense emotional thrills, especially in your relationships, and are sometimes upset by them. Feelings of insecurity may keep you from expressing your emotions, and you tend at times to become jealous or possessive of the person you love. The force of your emotional drives is intense and especially evident when you have been wounded in some way in the course of a love affair, or if you feel as though someone, a friend or lover, has betrayed you. You have a tendency to be masochistic and thrive on suffering. You may abandon yourself to your emotional fears and trifle with your inner vulnerability.

Bev Perdue was determined to experiment with a new style of love. Her idealistic aspirations encouraged her to cast off conventional romantic practices and customs and embark on new adventures.

Bev Perdue’s birth chart indicates 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, she is imbued with an eminently subjective and personal idealism.

Bev Perdue is outwardly inhibited, but her powerful and upsetting inner passions often get the best of her. Usually, her emotional life is rough sailing. She is more comfortable with her career, where her desire to progress and her taste for power give her wings, but she scares away most men with her demands and harshness. She will have to admit that her emotions cannot be repressed indefinitely.

Bev Perdue is attracted to freewheeling, independent partners, but sometimes has trouble adapting to their lifestyle. Her companion may have independent leanings, but life with her will not always be satisfying for Bev Perdue. Perhaps a marriage with a more conventional partner would be more appropriate for her.

You are cautious and reserved, sometimes unwilling to open yourself to others if you are not sure of being accepted. You will always hang back somewhat from your emotional urges, parceling out your expressions of affection, because you have learned – sometimes at your expense – that even the most harmonious relationships require some compromise. For you, “good fences make good neighbors,” and well-marked boundaries can prevent future suffering. Thus, even when you are in love, you remain fairly circumspect. When you find yourself attracted to a partner, you privately engage in a careful analysis of their personality and life story, endeavoring to know them profoundly, to see whether you are likely to be able to share your life and future with them. As a result of your sensitivity, you have a profound affinity for all of the arts. Music, literature, painting, and graphic arts are likely to enrich your existence and make it pleasant. You could progress in any career in which balance, order, and practicality predominate.

You are a complex individual, full of contradictions. You sometimes feel vulnerable emotionally, so you try to control not only your own feelings and urges, but may also strive to manipulate those of your partners. You aspire to a profound spiritual unity, but at the same time, the idea of abandoning yourself and yielding to the other terrifies you. This anguish may be a source of rather extreme behavior patterns and a somewhat self-focused attitude, which could damage the relationship. Because you are guarded and somewhat secretive, you tend to be suspicious and are especially uneasy about spontaneous intimacy, although you are fascinated by sexuality. Within the privacy of the couple, you will not express your feelings unless you are subject to some tension. Life may be peppered with frequent crises and feuds, arguments and spats, which usually act as erotic provocation. This derivation of eroticism from anxiety tends to be one of the fundamental characteristics of your emotional and sexual functioning. As a result, you are likely to be attracted by stormy and complicated relationships.

Bev Perdue considers the input from her subjectivity and emotions as static 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 cold, 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.

Bev Perdue expresses her thoughts and ideas in direct, spontaneous outbursts. She is fairly extroverted and eager to discover and understand the outer world. An idealist, she looks forward to a bright future but is sometimes subjective and reckless.

You have a lively and agile spirit that leads you to be curious and open-minded. You approach various life experiences without prejudice or dogmatism, which allows you to have an opinion on every subject. However, because you are often too hasty to formulate your thoughts and arguments, you are often misunderstood. You are often blind to the rashness of your judgments and convince yourself that your ideas are well-founded and objective. This can often irritate the people around you. If you could succeed in disciplining your mind somewhat, you would have countless opportunities to apply your communications skills to a great career. However, you would do well to be careful of your nerves.
