Your first name of Altheia has made you a sociable person who appreciates the beauties of nature and the refinements of life, and is moved by music and the arts. You are very idealistic and romantic within yourself and may have tried to express your beautiful thoughts through poetry or writing. Being self-conscious you do not like to be the centre of attention, yet you would like to be more expressive, outgoing, and spontaneous. Under just the right circumstances, you can be very dramatic. Your deep affection for and devotion to others expresses naturally in an atmosphere of understanding. You have great imagination and it is not difficult for you to be a part of the story. At times, there is a decidedly independent and determined side to your nature in coping with people; however, you dislike to witness hurt feelings and will avoid issues. You always wonder if you are doing the right thing, desiring to express yourself but afraid to. You have a very kind and gentle nature, and although you may be in a position in contact with the public, you will still be a lonely and reserved person. Thus, you live much within your own thoughts, often finding your escape in reading, which you love to do.
