Unrealistic self-doubt-YIN EARTH element negative aspect of psychological disorder
I have already pointed out in my recent blog that some personality disorders, as defined by psychology, can be matched with elements of a person's personality profile.
But what distinguishes a personality disorder from a personality?
When do we say that a particular personality is dysfunctional?
According to Chinese astrology, this state is the state of imbalance, in which the elements are constantly striving for balance. Just as the body balances to a constant homeostasis, so do the invisible elements from which we are built. Another possible cause, according to the Chinese interpretation of astrology, is the negative, low-vibration experience of a particular analogy of an element. Once we becaome aware of this, self-healing after self-sabotage can begin.
I am writing about a syndrome that leaves exceptionally talented and brilliant people from all walks of life with a self-esteem disorder who believes their success is only pure luck.
Such individuals believe themselves incapable of performing tasks that they could do much better than others. They are usually highly qualified, often good looking, educated women (they can be men, but it is more common among women) and yet they can force their thoughts through sleepless nights before a performance or competition, asking themselves "why they are not up to" a new challenging task. This is such a burden for the individual that they would rather give up the path to success, accepting the life of being under-positioned as the one for them. Even if they succeed, they seem it as a fluke and judge themselves as not being good enough. They tend to put this burden on themselves, and most set themselves at extreemly high standards as goals to make it even harder to exceed.
"If they reach 99% of their target, they are beating themselves up for not being 'good enough'. Because 100% is the baseline, everything has to be perfect."
What are the main characteristics of imposter syndrome?
•Underestimates their own talents and abilities
•Highly educated individuals do not believe that they can find a job/work for themselves despite their education
•The word impostor means a deceiver, referring to a person who deceives himself or herself into believing that, despite his or her values and talents, he or she does not deserve the successes and blessings of life.
•Tries to do everything without help, because if asks for or receives help, thinks thye are not capable of the task.
•cognitive distortions, self-defeating underestimations: if they can't do something, they can give up even a successful business.
"If they don't know something, they think they don't know anything by exaggeration."
What are the possible reasons?
According to psychology, it can be traced back to family traumas, such as trying too hard as a child to live up to parents' expectations. Some say it's linked to anxiety. Chinese astrology shows that if an element in an individual's birth chart is experienced at a low vibrational level, they are likely to experience similar disturbances.
What does Chinese astrology show and how can it help to diagnose?
My consultations and years of experience have shown that individuals whose birth chart contains an element
YIN EARTH in the area of life in which the element is located may experience the above effects. Individuals who have
YIN EARTH Day master are particularly vulnerable to such and similar distorting thoughts about their self-evaluation.
However, the element is not only to be found in the heavenly stems (the top row of the chart), but the Goat or Ox zodiacs located in the earthly branches can also give similar behaviour, since their elemental charge is YIN EARTH.
Not only YIN EARTH element, but also the
YIN WOOD element, can live with a low level of excessive conformity. And these 2 elements meeting each other in one chart, can cause a strong tension and anxiety to the person.
There are many examples in the celebrity world, including enviable famous people who are known to have struggled with similar feelings.
Kate Winslet has more than one YIN WOOD in her chart, indicating a strong compulsion to conform.
Renée Zellweger also has Yin Earth, in fact her chart contains a double Yin Earth, not only its day pillar but also her year pillar is Yin Earth.
Celine Dion herself is also Yin Earth, who repeatedly said in her younger age that without René Angelil, she would have been nobody.
Meryl Streep, eight-time Golden Globe-winning actress, also has Yin Earth in her chart:
And what is the solution? How can Chinese astrology help?
With Chinese astrology, once the individual's birth chart has been pinpointed, the duration of so many sessions in psychology can be shortened, with many many hours of discussion as part of cognitive therapy. It is not uncommon to be able to come up with a different diagnosis after 5-8 sessions.
Chinese astrology works with a so-called 4 pillar natal chart, in which the proportions of the elements and the interactions between them sometimes "scream" almost "unseen", "instantly". With a few questions, you can find out if the person is struggling with similar problems, if they are experiencing tension.
What can be a help after a rapid diagnosis?
1. Point out the problem!
Often the person feels more liberated once they have received attention and understanding from a professional. Many people are happy to finally have someone who knows exactly what they are feeling inside. The accurate awareness of the problem and the explanation of the analogy of an element brings relief to the person's soul. He understands that all is well with him. Moreover, the element in question has not only a disadvantage but a significant advantage, which we can also point out.
2. Let's highlight the talent, the genius within you!
Such people are extremely empathetic, accepting, likeable. They will take the advice of anyone who helps them. Thus, it is not the embarrassment, but rather the positive benefits that need to be planted as a positive seed. Draw attention to yourself, observe how much more talented you are in certain activities than the average person. They can cling to that positive. Positive words work wonders in strengthening faith.
3. Keeping a gratitude diary
Giving gratitude for the smallest successes triggers the manifestation of conditioned desire into physical reality. Write down in a monthly or semi-annual review how you are doing in achieving your goals and plans. Every small success is a step towards your goal.
4. Meditation, Quieting the Mind
Guided meditations, mantras to enhance awareness, focus on positive thoughts. In doing so, it crowds out distorting thoughts. Clear mind leads to clear thinking.
5. Mentor
I usually find that people with this element need a helping hand to shape them in the right direction. However, they have to balance it skilfully because they find it difficult to accept help, so you have to let them believe that they did the task on their own. A mentor, helping partner, friend is vital for such a personality. This is when talent makes its way and infinite gratitude comes to the fore in the person's life.
6. faith
Motivational talks to strengthen faith. Books to guide you through the wonder of faith in yourself. Read Neville Goddard's The Power of Consciousness, or there are self-esteem building programmes.
7. Surround yourself with people who tells you how much you worth
Notice if these people highlight your weaknesses or talents.
8. sports, exercise
A healthy body in a healthy mind is the fastest way to clear out unnecessary and draining thoughts.
Personality is a set of habits formed as a result of a series of similar actions in a personality. If you have been practicing the qualities that fit the negative aspect of a particular element for years, it takes a long period of practice that cannot change overnight.
A 4 pillar birth chart in Chinese astrology shows everyone which elemental qualities affect our life. There are moments when we experience and stop wondering but smile at how much we are living these energies.
