Your first name of Aphton 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. You could be drawn to the mysteries of life, religious or philosophical concepts, to the arts, music, or the theatre. You live much within your own thoughts and find companionship in literature, especially romance or mystery. Many times, you feel misunderstood because not even your closest friends really know you. Being self-conscious you do not like to be the centre of attention, yet you would like to be more expressive, outgoing, and spontaneous. If someone misrepresents you or makes a joke out of something important to you, you withdraw and use silence as a method of making the person aware of the inappropriate comments. You crave affection and understanding, yet because you can be so easily and deeply hurt, you have learned to keep your true nature hidden; therefore people do not really know you. 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 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. Thus, you live much within your own thoughts, often finding your escape in reading, which you love to do.
