Your first name of Empress has given you energy, drive, and ambition, but also an almost excessively strong-willed and independent nature. Generally, you do not like to waste time on superficial conversation. As it is difficult for you to express the little attentions and niceties that appeal to more sensitive natures, you attract misunderstandings with those who do not appreciate your forthright manner. You expect a great deal of yourself and of others, and you are seldom satisfied with your accomplishments. Your great initiative and driving power could lead you into sales and promotional positions. When you are annoyed, you must guard against a strong temper and the expression of intolerance and criticism. Because of the restless qualities within your first name, it is very often difficult for you to find pleasure in ordinary congeniality. It makes you self-sufficient and self-reliant. While you are creative, inventive, and ingenious in practical matters, and always ready to initiate and promote new undertakings, you often experience difficulty in bringing your undertakings to a successful conclusion because of your own changing interests or changing circumstances. You become intensely involved with everything you plan to do, but the stress arising from frustrating obstacles or misunderstandings with others could prompt you to be intolerant and sarcastic in your expression, with breakdowns in congenial relations with family and friends a possible end result.
