The name of Akana has given you the desire for creative, artistic or musical expression in an original way. You like to act spontaneously, but impulsive decisions and poor judgment can occasionally lead you into unsettling circumstances which spoil the success of your undertakings. However, once you make up your mind that something is going to work, you persevere until it is accomplished. Seldom planning ahead, you undertake projects and work out the details as circumstances arise. Because you like to get your own way, and your name makes it difficult for you to see things from other points of view, others accuse you of obstinacy or self-centredness. You do not depend on others for encouragement, but you respond to appreciation and enjoy being the centre of attention. Although you are congenial in the early stages of friendships, it is not easy for you to maintain relaxed, harmonious relationships because, through increasing familiarity, you are inclined to lack patience, to be intolerant, and to speak your mind in a frank, argumentative, and occasionally hurtful manner. Although you meet new people easily, it is not easy for you to maintain a relaxed, harmonious relationship. In an argument, you usually emerge victor, but at a cost. This name does not offer the softness of expression for long-lasting compatibility in close associations.
