The name of Gretemaria has given you an appreciation for many beautiful and refined aspects of life--music and art, literature, drama--and the outdoors, where you find much peace and relaxation, but it creates a far too sensitive nature. You must fight against self-consciousness and insecurity. You desire happiness, love, and understanding. At times, you are very inspired, desiring to be with people and to entertain others as the "life of the party," while at other times you are aloof and choose to remove yourself entirely from association. You would give away your last dollar if you felt it would help someone in need. You wonder about their origin. You can be acutely hurt by unkind comments and it is at such times that you withdraw into your own world of thought. You have a clever imagination and an ability to express your deeper thoughts and feelings through composition and poetry. You crave understanding and affection but your intensity of desire and your self-consciousness prevent you from finding the happiness you desire. You are fond of sugars, starches, and sours and, depending on how often you eat these foods, you could be subject to such conditions as eczema or arthritis.
