Daniel Davis is trying to overcome his feelings of insecurity. To do so, he needs a home: a dwelling, a territory, or perhaps a safe space or setting where he can rest, and let down his systems of defense against the outer world, which he finds aggressive and hostile. He is ready to make some sacrifices in order to maintain and consolidate the structure he has chosen. True inner security, based on real knowledge of himself, his abilities, and his shortcomings, his strengths and his weaknesses would no doubt be most effective and would allow him to remain open to the varieties of experience offered by the world.

Daniel Davis:

I have a paternal complex, and as a result, some trouble finding my identity. Perhaps my father or a father figure was absent physically or emotionally during my childhood, which deprived me of the patterns or models which are usually helpful in structuring a personality. Because I might have lacked a particular sense of security which could be provided by a paternal presence, as well as the examples of behavior to follow in confronting the difficulties inherent in every life, I was forced to protect myself against negative influences and find my own system in order to grow and feel secure. Although this system was quite useful to me as a child, it has now settled in to such a degree that it interferes with my evolution. Psychological defense mechanisms and crutches which were once useful now encumber my mind or inhibit my developmental efforts. As a result, in certain situations, it is difficult for me to assert myself, and I tend to remain an awkward or passive observer. Because my authoritarian urges are mainly directed at myself rather than others, I sometimes feel guilty about my behavior. I judge myself severely, and sometimes punishes myself by setting difficult tasks for myself. Gradually, I should build up a strong inner discipline and acquire the strength to face the problems of existence in a detached and mature way.

Daniel Davis’s personality and behavior are liable to be disrupted by a contradiction between the masculine and feminine archetypes ruling his psyche. Because his sensitivity is in conflict with his determination, his attitude and performance may be moody, fluctuating, and uncertain. Usually, he has the feeling he has to make superhuman efforts to succeed in assuaging his yearnings and fulfilling his ambitions. His unconscious, sensitive side often disapproves of his conscious endeavors and stealthily works to defeat them, causing crucial omissions, mistakes, and gaps which effectively sabotage his plans. In his relationships, the images he builds up and projects on the other are contradictory. As a result, any bond, even if it is pleasant and positive, also grates on his nerves. He finds it dissatisfying and irritating at the same time.

Daniel Davis has great strength of character. His courage and endurance enable him to accomplish even extremely arduous tasks.

Daniel Davis lives in a state of psychic tension, resenting the gap between what he really experiences and the ideals he wishes for. He is hesitant, irresolute, and impressionable.

Daniel Davis has a strong sexual aura and considerable sway over other people, but this does not always imply love. His feelings tend to be mysterious; for example, he may derive erotic fulfillment from anguish. He is attracted to sensual and complicated partners who draw him into tormented love affairs. A power struggle, or perhaps even a confrontation, may prove to be necessary in relationships where storms and recriminations will probably be inevitable.

You are a complex individual, full of contradictions. You sometimes feel vulnerable emotionally, so you try to control not only your own feelings and urges, but may also strive to manipulate those of your partners. You aspire to a profound and enduring spiritual unity, but at the same time, the idea of abandoning yourself and yielding to the other terrifies you. This anguish may be a source of rather extreme behavior patterns and a somewhat self-focused attitude which could damage the relationship. Because you are guarded and somewhat secretive, you tend to be suspicious and are especially uneasy about spontaneous intimacy, although you are fascinated by sexuality. Within the privacy of the couple, you will not express your feelings unless you are subject to some tension. Life may be peppered with frequent crises and feuds, arguments and spats which usually act as erotic provocation. This derivation of eroticism from anxiety tends to be one of the fundamental characteristics of your emotional and sexual functioning. As a result, you are likely to be attracted by stormy and complicated relationships.
