Katy Perry has a complex personality. She is astir with contradictory impulses and desires, some of them imperious. Although her rational mind is highly developed and seems to be the source of motivation for her behavior, the most significant realm of her psychology is her subconscious. Therein, a conflict between understanding and feeling is raging, between the psychological functions of thought and sensation (C.G. Jung’s terms). Until this conflict subsides, Katy might feel a sensation of emptiness. Katy is troubled by and unable to explain this feeling, which leads her to adopt an attitude of doubt and skepticism. This conflict, and its various ramifications, are the main obstacle to her individuation. Katy’s task consists of becoming the master of the energies of her subconscious, and developing her consciousness in terms of the hidden and invisible. Katy’s evolution will occur through a series of metamorphoses and rebirths. However, at certain points in her life, despite her caution and clear thinking, Katy finds herself in situations she neither desired nor planned, as a result of explosions and eruptions of the elements fermenting in her psyche. Katy always survives the worst physical, emotional, or intellectual tests, however, fairly unscathed, because of her ability to be reborn and start afresh.

As a partner, Katy might struggle to make compromises. She may appear frosty and distant at times, and she has a taste for challenging, provocative remarks. With herself, as well as with others, Katy is sometimes excessive and complicated. In a discussion, Katy will express strong, honest opinions. In crisis situations, Katy wishes for her efforts to be noticed. Katy is obsessed with the problem of death. Katy tends to believe it holds the secret of life – that death can be overcome.

Sometimes Katy’s anxiety about death is expressed as a search for answers – how can one learn to live with death, how can one detach oneself from the past and its flesh-curdlingly morbid realities… Decay, immobility, ultimate delivery – these images, which are all symbolically associated with death, sometimes haunt Katy.

Intellectually, Katy has powerfully developed intellectual faculties which yield the maximum effectiveness for her behavior. Deductive, analytical, prospective, Katy is at once a researcher, a detective, and a scientist. Katy is fairly introverted, and her discrimination tends to direct her toward the spheres of inner life. Katy is astute at drawing rational parallels between phenomena of different origins. Katy’s love life will be subject to desire and passion. But since Katy is more aroused by ideas and fantasies, she may experience lulls in intensity. When Katy yields to her penchant for emotional upheaval and her desire for coercion and pleasure, she may find herself sailing into the teeth of a hurricane-force gale.

Katy Perry yearns for a purpose in life, even faraway or abstract.

The ego which is available to others is no longer completely self-possessed. Katy Perry invests all their energy in their relationships and partnerships.

Born in the three days after the rising of the new moon, Katy Perry is said to be a “new moon” lunar type. This “soli-lunar” configuration gives her a subjective character, somewhat impulsive and sometimes emotive. Generally, she does not see the world in objective terms; instead, she bases her attitude on the feelings various situations arouse inside her.

Likewise, in human relationships, she tends to project her imaginary reality onto others instead of seeing them for what they are. As a result, her judgements and reasoning are sometimes deprived of perspective.

Katy Perry may want to make an effort to refrain from overinterpreting other people’s actions, because, being the product of her imagination in most cases, her interpretations are mistaken. If she applies herself to listening more openly, people may reveal their deeper motivations. She’ll be happier and more effective as a result.
