Your first name of Bernardica has made you happiest when you are expressing in some creative, artistic way, and not conforming to strict routine. You long for love and affection and for your sensitive feelings to be understood. If you are not careful, people take advantage of your generous nature. You are loyal to your friends and go out of your way to help others. Occasionally, when you are unhappy or disappointed by something, you can be moody and temperamental, and feel misunderstood and unappreciated. People tend to be guarded in handling your over-sensitive qualities. A very individual, independent person, you live within your own thoughts. You love to argue and can be strong-willed, but you are easily hurt by the comments of others. You find the beauties of nature, fine music, art, and literature--all the deeper things of life--inspiring. Over-indulgence could cause a weak back, skin conditions or arthritis later in life.
