Your first name of Dirk contains many fine qualities: musical and artistic ability, good business judgment, and a sense of responsibility for the welfare of others. One can always appeal to your heart and receive a sympathetic hearing. It is challenging for you to stand back and let others learn in their own way. You are impressionable and receptive but also positive and reliable. However, you are not inclined to hold grudges and most often you are very forgiving. Your fondness for home and children brings out your caring and devoted qualities. At times, people consider you to be interfering when you take on the duties of others because you recognize a better way to complete their job. You must guard against agonizing excessively over inconsequential matters or matters over which you have no control. While you have an appreciation for the finer things of life and could be successful along inspirational as well as business or professional lines of endeavour, there is a tendency to become involved in the needs and interests of others to the detriment of your own progress. You prefer to specialize in your creative activities, striving to perfect whatever you do.
