The name of Hoag creates a very quiet, practical nature and a clever and inventive mind. Because of your reserved nature and self-consciousness, you find it easier to express your thoughts through writing than verbally. Practical creativity such as in craft work, cooking, or sewing appeals to you. Being analytical and naturally studious, you are interested in a factual understanding of the mysteries of life and the universe. A misguided thought from someone can cause you to withdraw into your own thoughts for solace and comfort. Since you are not overly conversational and tend to be matter of fact and candid in your speech, you wish many times that you could be spontaneous, expressive, and happy-go-lucky. Finding it difficult to join in conversation with those with whom you are not well-acquainted, you could feel quite alone and uncommunicative with new acquaintances or in a large crowd. At such times, you become moody and uncommunicative. You could also experience tension affecting the respiratory organs. You desire so much to be understood, but your name has limited your verbal expression to such an extent that it is very difficult for you to divulge your innermost thoughts even to those closest to you.
