Consciousness and The Ideal of Self:

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

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

Mackenzie Ziegler is affectionate by nature, and love plays a decisive and central role in her life. She is a charmer who needs to love and be loved. 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.

Mackenzie Ziegler has a taste for luxury and magnificence, for a dazzling social life and a distinguished career. When things are going well for Mackenzie, Mackenzie tends to think of Mackenzie as the center of the universe, an attitude that those close to Mackenzie do not always appreciate. Although Mackenzie is quite likely to succeed in Mackenzie’s ambition to become wealthy and popular and lead a remarkable life in the outer world, Mackenzie’s lack of moderation and overweening self-confidence expose Mackenzie to some danger. Mackenzie’s exaggerated optimism could create difficulties for Mackenzie by causing Mackenzie to make errors in judgment.

Mackenzie Ziegler is an ardent free thinker and individualist who is convinced that their most precious basic values are freedom and independence. They have thrown off what they perceive as the burden of the convention and customs of their social class and adopted an innovative lifestyle. Their passionate convictions, bordering on proselytism, sometimes trouble their relationships, as they may be an uncompromising partner. They would do well to learn to recognize their own limitations and accept the responsibilities they have to other people, or they are liable to find themselves continually embroiled in conflicting relationships.

The roots of their somewhat extreme behavior probably lie in their relationship with their father or their teachers in childhood and adolescence. For one reason or another, they may have rejected the paternal image or refused to identify with their father, in the same way as they now refuse to adopt any values related to convention, tradition, or widespread usage. In every important life decision they make as an adult, they are forced to rely on themselves to elaborate the appropriate behavior, and the limits they must impose on their desires in relation to reality and the law.

Mackenzie Ziegler has a profound and fertile inner life and a prolific imagination, but their energy resources are not always sufficient to follow through on and accomplish their multitude of dreams. They tend to live in osmosis with their environment, and effort and action take a heavy toll on them. Usually, they understand phenomena and events intuitively, without really making any effort; so they are not in the habit of disciplining or shaping their thought processes. Like their thoughts, their personality is rather amorphous and disorganized. As a result of this lack of structure, they may have some trouble asserting their individuality and making some personal contribution to society through their career. Their tendency to shut out reality and dream impossible dreams, like their refusal of responsibility and duty, may be a source of some difficulty for them.

Mackenzie Ziegler has an inalienable awareness of the void and the vanity of existence. Mackenzie Ziegler is sometimes disoriented and deconstructed by an unknowable, unconscious force and tends to ignore or disparage the superficial pleasures and pains of daily life, preferring to dive into the depths of human experience as deeply as Mackenzie Ziegler’s intellectual, emotional, and spiritual capacities permit. Grappling with Mackenzie Ziegler’s “fundamental nature,” with the deepest and most primitive part of Mackenzie Ziegler, Mackenzie Ziegler is sometimes aghast at the discovery of the sheer power of Mackenzie Ziegler’s instincts and feels an imperious need to cope with them. This special consciousness Mackenzie Ziegler has been endowed with is somewhat beyond the bounds of conventional schools of human understanding and thought and may be a source of identity problems for Mackenzie Ziegler at the outset. It is not easy for Mackenzie Ziegler to recognize Mackenzie Ziegler in any social or narcissistic models, or identify with any existing roles or attitudes, so Mackenzie Ziegler sometimes finds Mackenzie Ziegler forced to assert and express Mackenzie Ziegler’s own identity in a way which may strike Mackenzie Ziegler’s contemporaries as strangely intense if not eccentric.

Adaptation and Sensitivity:

Usually cool and distant in demeanor, Mackenzie Ziegler represses her feelings and sensitivity and avoids the sort of situation where she might be forced to express them. This inhibition is related to a feeling of not having been loved enough. In many cases, to the detriment of her love life, Mackenzie is capable of plunging all her energy into her work. She seeks social recognition through her career achievements.

Optimistic and happy to be alive, Mackenzie Ziegler is a cheerful, expansive, pleasant associate to have. She is extremely generous (sometimes to a fault!) and gives of herself and her belongings unstintingly. This positive psychological outlook is the result of a happy childhood and especially an extremely beneficial maternal influence in infancy. She is quite likely to be a professional success; her vision of the world is perfectly adapted to prevailing opinion, and her urges and desires for personal expansion usually elicit a positive reaction from society. By old age, her good reputation and prominence may have earned her fame.

Although Mackenzie’s demeanor is cool and distant, she is extremely sensitive. In some cases, her rather austere and rigid behavior and her refusal to yield too readily to sentimentality discourage others from being too demonstrative of their tenderness and affection. She has spells of melancholy in which she does not feel worthy of being loved and tend to forbid herself any emotional fulfillment whatsoever. An austere or somewhat traumatic childhood experience may be the source of this behavior. It is difficult for her inner self to be detached from this past life, and she sometimes has trouble reconciling the image she has of herself as an adult with the one she acquired back then. The idea she has of herself as an individual is related to the image her parents projected onto her as a child. Nevertheless, the past is history, and she is now an adult. Through self-work, she can rid herself of these phantoms. She has the ability to overcome her mistakes, as well as great endurance and will power to achieve her goals. Nevertheless, she must not repress her sensitivity in order to succeed.

Due to nagging feelings of insecurity, Mackenzie Ziegler sometimes tries to justify herself to others and gain their approval by showing that she is worthy of their affection. Nevertheless, her pessimism remains, and the severe taboos she unconsciously places on herself sometimes keep her from developing quickly.

Love and Sensuality:

Mackenzie Ziegler enjoys captivating people with the elegance and ease of her expression. She is a witty and engaging flirt, an avid player of the game of love. As a result, the history of her affections is liable to be episodic, a long series of chapters about conquests or fleeting love affairs. She may carry on some love relationships by writing letters.

Mackenzie Ziegler’s birth chart indicates a somewhat introverted emotional function which is influenced by the cultural values traditional to her family and social class. Because she does not always trust her emotional urges and reactions, she generally prefers to hang back and acquire some perspective before committing herself emotionally.

Mackenzie Ziegler’s emotional involvement might be the source of some dissatisfaction for them. The usual romantic behavior and the lifestyle values prevailing in this area are not really appropriate for them. As a result, they seek few intimate emotional relationships or contacts. They tend to stay in the background and fulfill their emotional needs by sublimating. They might not attain full romantic satisfaction until they reach middle age.

Shy and unsure of herself, Mackenzie Ziegler is liable to be stuck on the sidelines of life despite her qualities, at least in the first part of her adult life. If she manages to overcome her inhibitions, she could have a brilliant career. Her private life should emerge from its melancholy and relative frigidity, improving with time and giving rise to a deep and enduring commitment. A lively and intelligent person, perhaps younger than her, should be able to draw her out of her shell.

An eternal teenager, Mackenzie Ziegler indulges in puppy love romances or allows the circumstances to decide what she wants. Her personality is sometimes emotional and ambivalent. She should be careful not to rush into marriage, for she may soon long for the single life again if she hasn’t chosen a partner who’s the best fit.

Mackenzie Ziegler has a great emotional ideal, full of subtlety and tenderness. However, she tends to be overwhelmed by her imagination and may not be selective enough when choosing a partner. Her romantic and trusting nature may make her vulnerable. Although she strives to establish peaceful, uncomplicated relations, she sometimes experiences painful disappointments. Her artistic delicacy and refinement provide her with a sincere love of the arts, music, and literature. She is likely to be a gifted poet.

From the outside, Mackenzie Ziegler seems to be detached and aloof, but on the inside she is an extremely complex individual, full of contradictions. Because she sometimes feels vulnerable emotionally, she tries to control not only her own feelings and urges, but may also strive to manipulate those of her partners. She aspires to a profound and enduring spiritual unity, but at the same time, the idea of abandoning herself and yielding to the other terrifies her. This anguish may be a source of rather extreme behavior patterns and a somewhat self-focused attitude which could damage the relationship. Because she is guarded and somewhat secretive, she tends to be suspicious and is especially uneasy about spontaneous intimacy, although she is fascinated by sexuality. Within the privacy of the couple, she will not express her feelings unless she is 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 her emotional and sexual functioning. As a result, she is likely to be attracted by stormy and complicated relationships.

Mental and Intellect:

Mackenzie Ziegler is somewhat plodding but realistic and pragmatic. Because Mackenzie Ziegler is chiefly preoccupied with the practical aspects of things, Mackenzie Ziegler is especially apt to develop more efficient production concepts. Although Mackenzie Ziegler’s good judgment and common sense provide Mackenzie Ziegler with an excellent ability to handle the tangible world (Mackenzie Ziegler is certainly clever, and can quickly assess the tangible value of things), Mackenzie Ziegler’s thought processes might be relatively impervious to abstract concepts and spiritual awakenings.
