Amandla Stenberg practices restraining her emotions; she practices controlling her impulses and resisting them. Although it is not an easy apprenticeship, she wants to be able to bear strain with patience, endurance, and stamina. More than anyone else, she is aware of the need for a solid and stable foundation as a prerequisite to any effective action.
You have a strong need for approval and a tendency to conform to the expectations of those around you. Because you lacked a strong sense of self-confidence as a child, you were forced to rely on the approval of others to feel validated. This led to a pattern of behavior in which you became very submissive and compliant in order to win the approval of those around you. However, because you lacked the self-assertiveness necessary to stand up for yourself, you often end up taking the path of least resistance in order to avoid confrontation or disapproval. As a result, you often feel insecure and helpless, and you often find it difficult to live on your own terms. You need to learn to be more independent and assertive, and to stand up for yourself in order to achieve your goals.
Amandla Stenberg is affectionate by nature, and loves playing a decisive and central role in her life. She is a charmer who needs to be loved and be admired. 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 a sober and rather reserved young woman, and people may find you to be harsh and austere at times. You were raised in an atmosphere of rigor and sobriety, and, as a result, grew up very fast. You have acquired a spirit of self-sufficiency, and are rather uncompromising. You also have a touchy sense of your personal dignity and worth. It is almost as though you were fighting an inner battle with your father or a father figure. The psychological models you received from your father or a father figure as a result of your interaction and your own interaction with authority may not have played a major role in shaping your relationships with the outer world and society. You may thus have been forced to compensate for this with individual determination. As a result, although you are skillful, meticulous, conscientious, and efficient, a lack of self-confidence and personal assurance sometimes makes you timid and hesitant. You sometimes feel as though you are only masquerading as a respectable, sober adult. You tend to be far too critical of yourself, and rarely feel satisfied that you are living up to your ideal. These unnecessary guilt feelings may lead you to turn down the prominent career positions for which you are fully qualified. You are aware that early success is often short-lived and fragile, and that time rewards those who know how to be patient and persistent, like you.
You are a free thinker who believes that your most important values are independence and freedom. You have abandoned the conventional ways of life of your social class and adopted an innovative lifestyle. Your passionate convictions can be difficult to deal with, as you may be uncompromising in your relationships. You need to learn to recognize your own limitations and accept the responsibilities you have to other people. If you don’t, you are likely to get caught in conflicts with others. The roots of your behavior may be related to your relationship with your father or teachers when you were younger. For some reason, you may have rejected the paternal image or refused to identify with your father, in the same way you are rejecting conventional values now. In every important life decision you make as an adult, you have to rely on yourself to figure out the appropriate behavior and set limits on your desires.
She is very sensitive and receptive, and she tends to live in osmosis with her surroundings. Her individuality almost seems to be diluted in a flood of sensations and impressions which are continually washing over her, and she sometimes finds it difficult to communicate her feelings to other people. This tide of emotion is a source of inspiration and intuition, but her fluid inner structure and organization sometimes make it difficult for her to grasp the essence of her dreams and share them with other people. She is not at all combative, and this tends to hinder her efforts to fit into society and assert herself productively. She is likely to prefer fantasy to reality, but her refusal to abandon her unattainable dreams is a psychological trap she has fallen into without realizing it. She must understand that by running away from her obligations and commitments, she only increases the feelings of guilt which made reality so distasteful in the first place. Once she free herself from this pernicious process, she has a great deal of potential for fulfilling herself in the outer world, either by devoting herself to some sort of social work or by cultivating her considerable artistic talents.
Amandla Stenberg searches for meaning in her life. Her youth and nomadic lifestyle have instilled within her a desire for physical and mental freedom, which she seeks in various belief systems. Her gift for philosophy manifests itself in her love of exploring faraway places.
Amandla Stenberg 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.
Because you were born with a strong sense of individuality, you quickly developed an original and independent identity. Your first taste of liberty may have led you to challenge the education and values you received from your family and social class tradition, and you were able to forge a strong, unique personality and philosophy. Your relationships are usually free of conflict, because you are able to reconcile your need for independence with your desire for affection. However, your partners should be open and lively people, able to keep pace with you in your rapid evolution. You have an inspired and extremely lively wit and a brisk interest in the future, technological progress, and new lifestyles. You would be especially successful in communications-related careers like journalism, film, TV, radio, and advertising. Although you are an individualist, you have a powerful desire to contribute to the evolution of society and better its development.
Amandla Stenberg feels sexuality is an important part of her life, and her relationships are most often determined by her instincts. If she has a relationship that is exclusively satisfying sexually, however, she might feel frustration, because she is driven by a kind of unconscious guilt to seek fulfillment for her heart and soul as well. She tends to be a rather excessive and tormented partner, who often re-evaluates the bonds that connect her to her partners.
Amandla Stenberg tries to express her affections in the most graceful and harmonious way possible. Indeed, she has an innate sense of harmony and strives for a love relationship characterized by balance and perfection. She tends to idealize both her partner and the institution of marriage. Any disillusionment she encounters in the pursuit of her ideal may be experienced as a frustration. She does not always ply her powers of seduction skillfully.

You are hypersensitive and tend to relive the anxieties, apprehensions, and romantic absolutes of your first love relationships, which occurred around the ages of 13-14 years or 20-21 years. You are exquisitely sensitive, but almost completely barricaded behind a layer of aloofness. You will not settle for anything less than eternal commitment, total harmony, and absolute loyalty. You are sometimes presumed to be cold, even by those close to her. You usually hide your emotional reactions or do not even allow them to reach the level of your consciousness, in an effort to protect your sensitivity, which you see as your weak point. You are fairly vulnerable, even in the intimacy of a stable and established relationship. Usually, you will disguise your strong feelings as a kind of possessiveness or even jealousy. Certain misfortunes may arouse a negative emotional state inside you, and you feel unworthy of the love which is lavished on you. This psychological prohibition which rules over all of your desires and affects should loosen with the passage of time; likewise, your fear of approaching the other will diminish. As a result, the second part of your romantic life will be more rewarding. In any case, if you want to experience a harmonious love relationship and gratify yourself emotionally, the defense mechanisms you have elaborated to make yourself inaccessible to others will have to be dismantled. Any profound relationship will also require that you learn how to forget yourself occasionally in the other.
You are emotive and hypersensitive, making you especially vulnerable emotionally. Because your rather excessive sensitivity and your need to merge with the other are deep and powerful enough, they can submerge your judgment and discernment, so you sometimes form extremely intense bonds too quickly with individuals who are not appropriate partners in many ways. When you meet someone, you fall under the enchantment of your dream of ideal love and cannot keep yourself from delighting in a reverie of future romance, placing the other on a pedestal. Early on in the relationship, you yield to another of your characteristic urges and lose yourself in the individual who is so dear to you, melding with them, only to awaken one morning and find yourself as if in the arms of a stranger, greatly astounded and disappointed. Actually, your psyche is constructed in such a way as to make your sensitivity a function of the environment, in many cases; it follows the flow of momentary emotions and impressions. Before you take on any major commitments, you should make a conscious effort to evaluate the relationship realistically, and see whether the person really reciprocates your intense love, for you may merely be in love with the mirage of an ideal partner. Your tendency to believe in your illusions may mark you as an easy prey for people with bad intentions. It would be a good idea for you to find a different object for your affections, or a form of sublimation, because you tend to be so disappointed by your great emotional investments. The delicacy and subtlety of your imagination procure artistic refinement for you, and you love the arts, music, and literature, which could all be good sources of emotional involvement and fulfillment. Because your sensitivity also makes it easy for you to empathize with the psychological or social difficulties your peers are struggling with, you might also find it rewarding to commit yourself to social work.
Curious, skeptical, and pragmatic, you have a shrewd, inquisitorial mind. You always try to detect the hidden mechanisms and processes behind the phenomena you observe. As a result, you have developed an ability to detect the truth behind appearances and the cause behind the effect. Although this way of thinking is based on a certain logic, and there is evidence of structure and cohesion in your deductive approach, it is not always purely intellectual. Indeed, its sources lie in a certain empiricism, in facts which have been experienced, so it is open to improvement. For this reason, its fields of application are highly diverse, although research in the hard sciences, psychology, and metaphysics seem to be the best career choices.
Amandla Stenberg tries to shun subjectivity and be as objective as possible. Her thoughts are usually structured, and her reasoning, based on objective facts or experience, usually relates to practical goals.
