Your first name of Pantera has made you happiest when you are expressing in some creative, artistic way, and not conforming to strict routine. A very individual, independent person, you live within your own thoughts. You love to argue and can be strong-willed, but you are easily hurt by the comments of others. These contrasting natures make it difficult for people to understand you and can lead to friction in your personal life. In a large group of comparative strangers, you are quiet and rather shy, unable to express yourself, not really wanting to become involved in conversation. If you are not careful, people take advantage of your generous nature. People tend to be guarded in handling your over-sensitive qualities. You are loyal to your friends and go out of your way to help others. The reserved, sensitive side of your nature brings aloneness and friction into your life, although you crave affection and understanding. You find the beauties of nature, fine music, art, and literature--all the deeper things of life--inspiring.
