Your first name of Alkmena has made you happiest when you are expressing in some creative, artistic way, and not conforming to strict routine. Others impose upon your generosity at times, and you do not always reap the rewards for all that you do. You long for love and affection and for your sensitive feelings to be understood. By taking a walk in nature, you can often settle turmoil within yourself. Your friends seldom know what to expect from you because of this dual character—friendly and charming one moment or lost in introspection the next. The mysteries of life, the phenomena of nature, and religious and occult concepts appeal to your desire to understand the deeper aspects of life. When you are with acquaintances and strangers, you tend to be reserved and reticent, shy and secretive but, on the other hand, with close friends you can sometimes be the life of the party, expressive, humorous, dramatic, and fun-loving. You enjoy reading and can become so absorbed that you are unaware of what is happening around you. The heart and lungs could also be affected at stressful times. Over-indulgence could cause a weak back, skin conditions or arthritis later in life.
