The name of Apritapa has given you the desire for creative, artistic or musical expression in an original way. As your independence and freedom are very important, you will seldom tolerate limitations. With increased familiarity you are inclined to speak your mind in a forthright, sometimes argumentative manner which creates annoyance and often hard feelings. You enjoy new ideas and new projects, but have difficulty in following through if once you find the novelty of an activity has worn off. 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. 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. You thrive on interacting with people when you can implement your original ideas. You do not depend on others for encouragement, but you respond to appreciation and enjoy being the centre of attention. This name does not offer the softness of expression for long-lasting compatibility in close associations. Health weaknesses centre in the head with the use of this name: headcolds, sinus problems, headaches, or hay fever.
