Family is a mixed bag for you, and you may have a complicated relationship with yours. While you’re attached to your clan, you may feel like the black sheep—misunderstood and alienated. Underneath is your deep, paradoxical desire for both security and independence, which is difficult for even you to understand. Your feelings are easily hurt, which also makes it difficult to be around less–sensitive relatives. Maintain boundaries, but don't sacrifice the nurturing that you need.
Issue to Manage: Meddling
When family drama erupts around you, you’re quick to play the mediator,
involving yourself in everyone’s conflicts. Taken too far, you’ll
grow burnt out and resentful, and may bitterly detach. Inserting yourself
in the middle of people’s affairs doesn’t serve anyone in the
end. Let the drama blow over before you jump in.
You as a Parent:
+You give and give, and your children are always provided for well.
-Playing the victim and making your kids feel guilty can strain your
relationship. You can be overemotional with them.
You as a Child:
+You’re creative and imaginative, and easily entertain yourself.
-You're a daydreamer who will talk to any stranger, leaving your parents
worried for your safety.
You as a Sibling:
+Nobody messes with the people you love, and you’ll defend your sibs
to the end.
-Your bossy “mother hen” act overpowers your siblings and makes
them resent your prying.
