Bob Dylan was patient. He was fond of routine, ritual, and any other events or ceremonies which marked the passage of time and the seasons. He tried to be as pragmatic as possible and unconsciously sensed that his relationship with material things would be the best foundation for his self-development and individuation. As a result, he was attached to his possessions and would make every effort to cling to them.

Bob Dylan was vigorous and energetic. He had an immense need to assert his individuality and his attitudes and actions were actually motivated by an unconscious desire for power. He puzzled the people close to him, who could not understand whether his behavior was the result of pure selfishness or merely of an excess of energy. He was lively, alert, and determined, but he was too easily distracted from goals by futile competition or opportunities to exhibit his power. He had a short temper and must learn to control his impulsiveness, which might expose him to a great deal of unnecessary conflict.

Bob Dylan has a taste for luxury and magnificence, for a dazzling social life and a distinguished career. When things are going well for him, he tends to think of himself as the center of the universe, an attitude which those close to him do not always appreciate.

His exaggerated optimism could create difficulties by causing him to make errors in judgment.

In relation to others, socially and privately, he likes to build stable relationships and is not especially fond of change. His warmth gives him a great deal of ease when meeting people, as clients (for business purposes), but his close relations also benefit from this affection and his ability to express his feelings naturally and openly.

Although Bob Dylan’s demeanor is cool and distant, he is extremely sensitive. In some cases, his rather austere and rigid behavior and his refusal to yield too readily to sentimentality discourage others from being too demonstrative of their tenderness and affection. Bob Dylan has spells of melancholy in which he does not feel worthy of being loved and tend to forbid himself emotional fulfillment. An austere or somewhat traumatic childhood experience may be the source of this behavior. Bob Dylan may have suffered rejection in his infancy, and, as a result, lacked the parental love which is essential to the cohesion of a personality and identity. In order to feel secure, and to protect himself from ever suffering rejection or abandonment again, he withdrew into himself and developed his aloofness as a defense mechanism. When he finally let down his defenses and allow himself to express his feelings, he tends to become impassioned and exalted. Bob Dylan is fairly introverted and egocentric and has a powerful sense of his own identity.

Bob Dylan was indecisive about his emotions. Although he had engaged in a variety of experiments in order to know himself and his preferences better, he might still find himself unable to make a commitment. He tended to be somewhat happy-go-lucky, yielding to whatever opportunity circumstances presented, and may maintain several relationships simultaneously. It may not necessarily be easy for him to establish a lasting commitment, but it was not impossible.

Bob Dylan has a lively wit which gives him great agility and scope and a broad field of consciousness which enlivens his curiosity and makes him love variety and change. His mind is alert and his speech is full of verve, humor, and sometimes impudence. These abilities are great resources in communication, discussion, and debate. He is a storehouse of information and ideas of every kind and delights in manipulating words and concepts, discovering new things, and sharpening his memory for trivial facts. This mental agitation could sometimes make him scattered, however, or lacking in coherence and discipline.
