The name of Shawandah has given you an appreciation for many beautiful and refined aspects of life--music and art, literature, drama--and the outdoors, where you find much peace and relaxation, but it creates a far too sensitive nature. When you feel understood, you tend to show your affection for others through acts of consideration. You have many wonderful ideas and plans but fail to initiate action because of lack of confidence. When life becomes too routine and monotonous, you look for ways to create variety. You have a philosophical interest in knowing the “why’s” and “wherefore’s” of life, but you tend to drift into daydreams and to find it challenging to concentrate and apply system and order in your activities. You wonder about their origin. You have a clever imagination and an ability to express your deeper thoughts and feelings through composition and poetry. You must fight against self-consciousness and insecurity. You have suffered many disappointments and misunderstandings because of your inability to express your inner thoughts. You crave understanding and affection but your intensity of desire and your self-consciousness prevent you from finding the happiness you desire.
