Your first name of Dayadevi gives you a poised, gracious, and reserved nature. Light pleasantries and sociability do not appeal to you as much as reading, study, or outdoor activities. As you live much of the time within your own thoughts, someone can be speaking to you face to face, but you will be thinking about something entirely different and have closed out the conversation. When called upon to extemporize, you could be self-conscious and nervous as you prefer to be fully prepared ahead of time to handle situations and experiences. Your feelings are better expressed through writing. As you are a private person, it is a challenge for others to get to know and understand you. You are intellectual and not easily swayed through the emotions. You enjoy music, particularly of those instruments that remind you of the sounds of nature. Impromptu expression does not come easily unless you know your subject very well. You love to read and can develop great powers of concentration.
