The name of Portia gives you a clever, quick, analytical mind, but you suffer with a great deal of self-consciousness, lack of confidence, and much aloneness because of misunderstandings. Personal experiences of an intuitive nature have given you an awareness of the invisible forces of nature causing you to theorize about life and its mysteries. Whatever you choose, you invariably prefer to work on your own. You are deeply moved by the beauties of life, especially nature. It is far easier for you to express your deeper thoughts and feelings through writing than verbally. Your idealistic and sensitive nature gives you a deep appreciation for the finer things of life and a strong desire to be of service to humanity. Because your feelings run deep, you must guard against the ups and downs, being very inspired one minute, then moody, reserved, and depressed the next. Feeling inadequate in creating closeness and harmony in close relationships, you could become insecure, jealous, withdrawn, and repressed, and could suffer loneliness. You crave affection but seldom find anyone who understands your nature. Outwardly you often appear calm and in control, while inwardly you are experiencing turmoil and tension.
