4.Refrains from contributing solutions when problems or crises arise. Characteristically takes a position of, “So what are YOU going to do about it?” To this type of manager, others’ challenges do not really matter much to him. While this response could potentially develop a stronger ability in staff to independently solve problems, it is just as likely to leave them feeling unsupported and resentful.

5.Operates under mantle of a “know-it-all”, essentially refusing to entertain other points of view.

Sees challenges to his ideas as threats to his authority. Cultivates an underlying message of “just do as I say – I am not particularly interested in listening to anything else.” Ironically, underneath it all he harbors self-doubts about his competencies at motivating others, so overcompensates by demanding results while offering little or no support.

6.Heads up a dysfunctional, ineffective team that has so developed out of a lack of proactive guidance. The unfortunate individuals who report to this type of manager can find themselves afloat on a rudderless ship, out of radarscope of what should have been an involved captain.

7.Can appear defensive about her performance, deflecting blame onto others’ “incompetence” when goals are not achieved or projects go wrong. Could benefit from a professional coach or dedicated mentor who offers direct observation and truth telling.

8.Can be overly competitive, straining to reach top levels of performance or promotion. Places far greater emphasis on developing his organization “face” rather than developing growth in others. Concerned with creating positive impressions of himself at expense of recognizing others’ contributions. Unfortunately, collaboration is not part of his management vocabulary.

Skip part about accident and promise that you'll spend mortime with yourself.

•LIVING ENTIRELY OUTSIDE THE SELF, CAUSING DEEP DEPRESSION, SELF LOATHING, SELF HATRED AND SELF DESTRUCTION

I'm going to tell you a story that will convince you how serious this section is but first, let's review what we know about being true to ourselves. Simply put, nothing is more important than finding who you are and being that person. I or any astrologer can certainly help you with this. Few of us escaped conditioning of early childhood and school years that may have encouraged us to ignore our true selves and conform to family or society's expectations. As adults, we want to uncover our authentic selves. The astrology chart is most faithful blueprint I know for revealing authentic self.

Not only is it most stressful thing in world to try to be something we're not (and I mean this neutrally not critically), it is offensive at some level to part of us that is whole. There is something in us that, when split off from our whole self, revolts and takes revenge.

When I first began reading, 25 years ago, I had a client who often called with what were very insignificant problems but I knew something was brewing in background. Her calls were about brand new home which had a few little deficiencies. Her husband was slow in putting in new sod. And her sister-in-law was very depressed although she, too, had a wealthy husband, new home and was expecting a second baby in a few months. This client didn't call very often and would limit calls to these few items. I never had a chance to get very far with her.

One day much to my horror she called to tell me her sister-in-law had been hit head on by a semi. She and baby (in utero) were killed instantly.

Policemen deal with people at a very basic level just like psychics and intuitive consultants. TI mean by this that people will lie on Gallup polls and psychological research interviews but not in situations where police and psychics find them. Police call this sort of thing in their line of work, "suicide by cop", a phenomenon which I expect from O. J. Simpson one of these days. He has Saturn in 12th house.

Be that as it may be, this young woman found a tragic way out of her predicament. Was this her fate? No! She could have healed herself. But sometimes -- and I say this with more love in my heart than many people can feel for themselves at certain times -- they would literally rather die than change.

If you are desperately unhappy in your life, your marriage, your job, there is a projective driver who will subconsciously drift to that energy and fulfill your deadly wishes. This is a horrifying and very real possibility. Please wake up! You can heal yourself.

When we are as depressed as this young woman, something wants to die, yes, but it does not involve physical body. We are dying to old ways to thinking, believing, acting. Perhaps we are dying to a whole way of life. Or our old way of life has died. But it is a psychic death that is taking place. None of this is meant to involve physical body

Here are some astrological energies that are associated with car accidents. Remember that you always have free will as to how you use these energies.

•MARS/URANUS

Mars in square or opposition to Uranus is "accident prone" aspect.

Usually person is moving too quickly for circumstances. Also these people react poorly to being boxed in by traffic.

•GEMINI PLANETARY ENERGIES

Gemini planetary energies means having Gemini prominent in your chart (Sun, Moon, South Node or Saturn) or having important placements like Sun, Moon, South Node or Saturn in your 3rd house.

A recent Survey by SunCorp which studied 160,000 accident claims over a three year period by sun sign showed Geminis as worst drivers. They speculated this was because Geminis are distracted and impatient when things move too slowly.

•TAURUS AND PISCES PLANETARY ENERGIES

Pisces and Taurus planetary energies means important placements such as Sun, Moon, South Node or Saturn in one of these signs, or in 2nd or 12th houses.

Taurus and Pisces are two archetypal energies that tend most to live in their own little world. This is lovely and fine when you're home cleaning garage, washing car, balancing checkbook, watching your favorite video or writing in your journal. Driving on freeway is an extremely complex social and abstract conceptual activity which also involves hand/eye coordination.

•LIBRA PLANETARY ENERGIES

Libra planetary energies means important placements such as Sun, Moon, South Node or Saturn in Libra or in 7th house. These energies often present passive aggressive personality dynamics (seething with resentment?) that is very attractive to projective drivers.

•PLUTO ON THE NORTH NODE

Pluto on North Node or by transit is always a little bit tricky. If you're looking for a way out of responsibility of living your authentic life -- it is rigorous and difficult to be thoroughly alive -- Pluto has a seductive side to it. It has a way of darkly fulfilling idle and foolish wishes through powers of subconscious. I have seen people live through amazing accidents only to die in a very mundane way at next possible opportunity. Presumably, this was their wish.

Pluto invites transformation and does not necessarily mean to involve physical body but sometimes there is a misunderstanding in ego of individual.

Tow truck drivers, like policemen and psychics, interact with people right after extreme car accidents. I once had a revealing conversation with a tow truck driver who was driving me back to my house. We passed a stretch in road where there have been many fatal accidents. We both agreed that there was a black hole kind of energy which gathered around places where fatal accidents had occurred and which actually began to build up. "Dead Man's Curve" was a popular song when I was a teenager. The grim reality is that if you pass through one of these places while you are unconscious, you can be pulled off into void.

Please don't be alarmed by this reality. If you're alive to read this article, you've already driven safely through at least one of these places. Always drive alert and always give yourself a reason to be alive. If you are unhappy in any area of your life, do something about it, no matter how difficult.

I’ve given several important things not to do, now I’ll give you two important things always to do:

•give yourself a reason to live; and

•stay conscious to that fact.
