Your name of Marion has given you depth of mind and a studious, philosophical nature. You are constantly on guard for fear of being criticized or ridiculed. Even in being reprimanded, you tend to take a haughty attitude and refuse to be advised. If you feel that anyone is prying into your life, you try to steer conversations away from yourself. You tend to be secretive and noncommittal about private matters, yet at times you will talk effusively in order to hide your self-consciousness or to lead others away from personal subjects. You find companionship in novels and can become so absorbed in your reading that you are unaware of what is going on around you. You have a clever, quick, and analytical mind and you could enjoy and excel in music and drama, or along scientific and mathematical lines. You are not the argumentative type, but you can admonish a person by saying nothing, your silent disapproval being felt by others. You crave affection but seldom find anyone who understands your nature. A quiet walk in the outdoors, where you can listen to the sounds of nature, the wind in the trees, the lapping of water against a shoreline, the chirping of the birds, which become your companions, allow you to experience peace and freedom.
