Your first name of Hoden creates a friendly, sociable, charming nature, but causes you to be too easily influenced by others. You could be drawn into a position of public service, where your straightforward advice could help others overcome challenging moments. You relish being made a fuss of, yet you find it difficult to express your appreciation and to reciprocate with words of endearment and expressions of affection. You are assertive and independent, yet there are times when you rely upon the support and encouragement of others before making decisions and taking action. Others learn that you cannot be told what to do and you seldom change your mind once it is made up. Your name does not allow you to express your thoughts as tactfully as you would like. As a housekeeper, you find it difficult to budget and plan. A stubborn quality within you does not allow you to accept that you may have made a mistake or said the wrong thing. In a position dealing with the public, you could do well because of your friendly personality, interest in people, and desire to please. When asked, you are able to give others good advice that you would probably not follow yourself, but must guard against being too opinionated in controversial matters.
