The name of Pecola has given you an appreciation for many beautiful and refined aspects of life--music and art, literature, drama--and the outdoors, where you find much peace and relaxation, but it creates a far too sensitive nature. You can be acutely hurt by unkind comments and it is at such times that you withdraw into your own world of thought. You have a clever imagination and an ability to express your deeper thoughts and feelings through composition and poetry. Sometimes it is difficult for you to face life’s realities with their hardships, stress, and turmoil and you often find yourself combating fears of the future and the aspects of life that appear mysterious. You desire happiness, love, and understanding. You have a philosophical interest in knowing the “why’s” and “wherefore’s” of life, but you tend to drift into daydreams and to find it challenging to concentrate and apply system and order in your activities. You wonder about their origin. You rarely experience the tranquility that comes with stability of thinking or emotional control. You crave understanding and affection but your intensity of desire and your self-consciousness prevent you from finding the happiness you desire. Any health weaknesses tend to affect the bronchial organs with such ailments as colds, asthma, hayfever, or in severe cases, tuberculosis or heart troubles.
