Your first name of Pemala has made you happiest when you are expressing in some creative, artistic way, and not conforming to strict routine. You enjoy sweets and starchy foods. When you are with acquaintances and strangers, you tend to be reserved and reticent, shy and secretive but, on the other hand, with close friends you can sometimes be the life of the party, expressive, humorous, dramatic, and fun-loving. You long for love and affection and for your sensitive feelings to be understood. However, self-consciousness, at times, prevents you from feeling at ease in positions of impromptu self-expression. Your friends seldom know what to expect from you because of this dual character—friendly and charming one moment or lost in introspection the next. The mysteries of life, the phenomena of nature, and religious and occult concepts appeal to your desire to understand the deeper aspects of life. When you feel you are understood, you then must guard against jealousy and possessiveness. Over-indulgence could cause a weak back, skin conditions or arthritis later in life. The heart and lungs could also be affected at stressful times.
