The name of Ruth-Joy makes you very idealistic, sensitive, and inspirational. You much prefer to be involved in creative projects, expressing through the arts, music, dancing, or drama, specializing and perfecting your talents. Your fluctuating moods and petulant qualities create misunderstandings with others. The very thought of another’s suffering upsets you and can affect your nervous system. Under stressful circumstances, you can be very intense. You love attention. This name intensifies your feelings, and so many of your decisions are based on your feelings rather than analysis. Also, you may find that you enjoy writing, particularly poetry. When you are inspired and feel happy, life seems so wonderful; but you can be just as depressed and unhappy as well, feeling as if everyone is against you. You lack system and order in your life and will often leave your own duties if someone calls upon you for assistance.
