Your first name of Skanda creates an intense desire for association with people and new experiences, many of which have been rather bitter. When challenged for an explanation on a matter that could cause conflict, you can almost instantly come up with an acceptable answer to deflect the issue, even if you have to stretch the truth a little. Your difficulty in accumulating wealth or stabilizing your finances often causes your personal affairs to be in a turmoil. This unsettledness will take its toll on your health causing you to have a sensitive, nervous stomach, indigestion, and a tendency toward ulcers. A poor memory could eventually be a problem. You desire change and travel and would enjoy opportunities that allowed you to be creative and to act independently, rather than to conform to system and routine. Your extreme sensitivity and intensity have an adverse effect on your nervous system and, under extreme pressure, could cause a nervous breakdown. When you are feeling relaxed and cheerful, you can be very charming and able to say just the right thing to compliment or inspire someone. While you do have a quick, clever mind, the tensions and limitations this name places upon your happiness and success in life far outweigh the benefits. You are too open to suggestion, and thus you could become involved in detrimental associations which could lead you into by-paths of thrill-seeking or emotional indulgence.
