Your first name of Shakirah has given you a quick-minded, sensitive nature. You enjoy spending money and are generous, and since you are not very practical, you must be wary of those who would appeal to your feelings and encourage you to spend beyond your means. Thus your name causes you to be temperamental and very emotional at times. As you respond to love and encouragement from others, your romantic and dreamy nature can easily lead you into love affairs. Your sociable nature expresses affection, kindness, and thoughtfulness to the extent that it is difficult for you not to be affected by others and governed by your emotions, rather than by logic and reason. You love music, drama, and artistic creations, fashionable clothes, and refined surroundings. It is difficult for you to say “no” and mean it, as you do not like to hurt people’s feelings. Yours is a quick mind and you can usually think of something to say when there is a need to offset or deflect an unpleasant situation, sometimes even stretching the truth a little when it is expedient. Your desire for peace at any price can result in going out of your way to avoid arguments and confrontation or hurting the feelings of others. Controlling your desires is challenging for you as this names makes you happy-go-lucky, carefree, and not interested in restraint and discipline.
