Your first name of Ephraim gives you an independent, serious, reticent, and studious nature. The experience of having your remarks taken lightly or belittled, particularly during the early years of your life, has caused you to keep your thoughts and feelings to yourself. An intellectual, you have a deep appreciation for art, music, literature, and all the phenomena of nature. At such times you can withdraw into a mood, and may not even speak to others. In fact, others find it challenging to understand you as you do not reveal your innermost thoughts unless you are completely comfortable in your friendships. This name does not offer naturalness of expression, and as it is too serious an influence, it should be changed. Your difficulty in putting your deeper thoughts and feelings into words can lead to problems in more intimate associations. You take seriously any responsibilities that you have—in the home, in the community, or at a job. Worry and mental depression could be problems in your life. For that reason, despite having good business abilities, you like to work alone or where you are making your own decisions.
