Your first name of Pernula contains many fine qualities: musical and artistic ability, good business judgment, and a sense of responsibility for the welfare of others. One can always appeal to your heart and receive a sympathetic hearing. You feel the suffering and distress of others very keenly, and are drawn into positions of helping, for example, in institutional or community work in education or health care. Your fondness for home and children brings out your caring and devoted qualities. You are impressionable and receptive but also positive and reliable. Because of your sensitivity, you can be easily hurt and offended; but you are seldom downcast for long, for you have the analysis to push past resentments. It is challenging for you to stand back and let others learn in their own way. A weakness lies in the fact that you are deeply affected through your feeling for others and could suffer through worry and disturbed thoughts over matters that you can do nothing about. While you have an appreciation for the finer things of life and could be successful along inspirational as well as business or professional lines of endeavour, there is a tendency to become involved in the needs and interests of others to the detriment of your own progress. You prefer to specialize in your creative activities, striving to perfect whatever you do.
