Your name of Tertiana has given you depth of mind and a studious, philosophical nature. You seldom allow others to get too close until you are sure you will receive understanding. You then feel misunderstood and lonely and your thoughts can become turbulent and despondent, occasionally morbid. You tend to be secretive and noncommittal about private matters, yet at times you will talk effusively in order to hide your self-consciousness or to lead others away from personal subjects. Your reactions to people vary according to how you feel. Even in being reprimanded, you tend to take a haughty attitude and refuse to be advised. It is far easier for you to express your deeper thoughts and feelings through writing than verbally. You are deeply moved by the beauties of life, especially nature. The extreme sensitivity of this name and the inner turbulence that is often felt may create weaknesses affecting the nervous system, heart and lungs. A quiet walk in the outdoors, where you can listen to the sounds of nature, the wind in the trees, the lapping of water against a shoreline, the chirping of the birds, which become your companions, allow you to experience peace and freedom.
