What does Hannah Gadsby’s psychology tell us about them?

Hannah Gadsby’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 have a paternal complex and, as a result, some trouble finding 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.

Hannah Gadsby is affectionate by nature, and love plays a decisive and central role in her life. She is a charmer who needs to love and be loved. Aware of her personal magnetism and the power it gives her, she will make subtle changes in herself in order to attract positive attention. She is sophisticated and pleased to savor a lifestyle she sees as a consummate art.

You are an individual who is acutely aware of the void and the vanity of existence. You are sometimes disoriented and deconstructed by an unknowable, unconscious force and tend to ignore or disparage the superficial pleasures and pains of daily life, preferring to dive into the depths of human experience as deeply as your intellectual, emotional, and spiritual capacities permit. Grappling with your “fundamental nature,” with the deepest and most primitive part of yourself, you are sometimes aghast at the discovery of the sheer power of the life instinct and feels an imperious need to cope with it. This special consciousness you have 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 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, so you sometimes find yourself forced to construct and assert your own identity on a basis which may impress others with its intensity, if not its eccentricity.

Hannah Gadsby is hypersensitive and receptive to the mood in her surroundings. She is unconsciously able to perceive the parapsychic signals or aura people give off, in addition to their words. As a result, she is extremely compassionate and ready to devote herself to their well-being. Her imagination has formulated the dream of an ideal life, and she sometimes feels ill-equipped for the realities of this existence. She tends to dodge difficult situations. With her partner, she seeks fusion.

Hannah Gadsby 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.

Hannah Gadsby is a cheerful, expansive, pleasant associate to have. She is extremely generous (sometimes to a fault!) and gives of herself and her belongings unstintingly. This positive psychological outlook is the result of a happy childhood and especially an extremely beneficial maternal influence in infancy. By old age, her good reputation and prominence may have earned her fame.

Although your demeanor is cool and distant, you are extremely sensitive. In some cases, your rather austere and rigid behavior and your 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 whatsoever. 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. Through self-work, you can rid yourself of these phantoms. 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.

Hannah Gadsby writes:
Sometimes sensitive and emotive, I cringe from life, passively hoping for a better future, a utopian society, or a transcendent state of consciousness. However, by taking refuge in dreams, I may expose myself to adversity, both socially and in my private life.

Hannah Gadsby has often been afraid to love. The world of her emotions is characterized by a certain chill and restraint. But she is not unfeeling; on the contrary, her sensitivity is so delicate that she is careful to protect it. Her determination to maintain control of her feelings and force her emotions to obey the laws of reason may stand in the way of intimacy and joy.

Hannah Gadsby’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.

Hannah Gadsby is subject to anxiety and sees herself as a fragile person at the mercy of uncontrollable emotions and feelings strong enough to overwhelm her. She tends to resign herself to circumstances and is liable to confine herself to a state of regretful self-denial, unless she seizes an opportunity to forge her moral strength in a constructive relationship, a religion, or a belief which lends her structure. Her choice of a partner is thus crucial. Only a person who is tender yet strong, and reassuring yet flexible will be apt to help her find emotional fulfillment.

Hannah Gadsby is ambitious and quite aware of her own worth, and there is nothing romantic or sentimental about her attitude to relationships. If she marries, her relationship will have to be a smooth-running ‘business’ that serves her social ambitions, but this is not necessarily the best route to emotional fulfillment and happiness.

You are a complex individual, full of contradictions. You are attracted to stormy and complicated relationships because they stimulate your emotional and sexual needs. You are usually guarded and suspicious, which makes it difficult for you to trust others. You are also uneasy about spontaneity, but you are fascinated by sexuality. Within the privacy of the couple, you will not express your feelings unless there is some tension. Life is often filled with crises and arguments, which can be a source of erotic stimulation for you.

Hannah Gadsby is attracted to wide open spaces and distant horizons; as a scholar, she feels an affinity for higher studies such as philosophy or law. However, foreign languages or contacts abroad might also interest her.

Hannah Gadsby 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.

Hannah Gadsby has a tendency to make mistakes in judgment, and her understanding of things is not always in tune with social realities or prevailing opinion. Her judgments tend to be hasty; her decisions are reckless. Moreover, her tends to overestimate her abilities and usually aim higher than might be realistic. Once an enterprise or project is underway, Hannah may try to avoid obstacles by dodging certain duties. Because her vision of the world differs somewhat from social realities, she should be extremely careful and scrupulous in regard to legal matters, in order to avoid any complications of that type. She is sometimes slightly dishonest in her relations; she may break promises or attempt to duck responsibility. However, she should realize that such conduct toward other people is also a form of unconscious self-loathing. If she continues to behave in such a way, she is exposing herself to the same lack of sincerity from her partners.
