Your name of Pennarasi has given you depth of mind and a studious, philosophical nature. Others find it a challenge to get to know you and although you want affection, friendship, and understanding, your aloof, shy qualities rebuff the attention of others. You are constantly on guard for fear of being criticized or ridiculed. There are times when you experience inner turbulence at your inability to say what you mean. You find companionship in novels and can become so absorbed in your reading that you are unaware of what is going on around you. It is far easier for you to express your deeper thoughts and feelings through writing than verbally. Although you would give anything to be spontaneous, fun-loving, and natural, your name makes you very serious and self-conscious instead. You are a solitary person, reserved and sensitive. You are inspired by encouragement from others, yet suspicious of their intent. 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.
