Your first name of Athela 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 could be drawn to the mysteries of life, religious or philosophical concepts, to the arts, music, or the theatre. You cry easily despite your efforts to control this sensitivity. You can so thoroughly be absorbed in a novel that you do not hear what is going on around you. Your deep affection for and devotion to others expresses naturally in an atmosphere of understanding. You crave affection and understanding, yet because you can be so easily and deeply hurt, you have learned to keep your true nature hidden; therefore people do not really know you. You may find some expression but it would usually be light conversation, rarely daring to reveal your deeper thoughts or take others into your confidence for fear of criticism or ridicule. You always wonder if you are doing the right thing, desiring to express yourself but afraid to. This name creates a sensitivity in the fluid functions of the body and a tendency to weakness in the respiratory organs or the female organs. Thus, you live much within your own thoughts, often finding your escape in reading, which you love to do.
