Your first name of Althea has made you a sociable person who appreciates the beauties of nature and the refinements of life, and is moved by music and the arts. At times, there is a decidedly independent and determined side to your nature in coping with people; however, you dislike to witness hurt feelings and will avoid issues. Crudeness and vulgarity are very repulsive to you and you are very particular about little things. Being self-conscious you do not like to be the centre of attention, yet you would like to be more expressive, outgoing, and spontaneous. Under just the right circumstances, you can be very dramatic. Lacking confidence, you tend to depreciate your own value and ability, yet you could excel in creative writing or design as an outlet for your imaginative, poetic qualities. Gently falling rain, the wind in the willows, the sounds of birds, dappled sunlight through the trees in a forest, many expressions of nature reach your imagination and help to build a sense of harmony within. You could be drawn to the mysteries of life, religious or philosophical concepts, to the arts, music, or the theatre. You have a very kind and gentle nature, and although you may be in a position in contact with the public, you will still be a lonely and reserved person. Under stressful conditions, you may experience tension in the solar plexus area.
