Your first name of Petraya has given you an eagerness for knowledge and an intense desire to do something worthwhile in life. You crave to be understood and appreciated, but your aloofness and self-contained nature often rebuff the affection and love you so much desire. You are easily hurt and offended. Your appreciation for the beauties of nature, as well as your intense desire for freedom, motivate you to seek activities in the outdoors, free from limitations. Although you appear aloof to others, a loner with few close friends, there are times when you would give anything to be spontaneous and natural, rather than guarded and reserved. You long for freedom from restrictions and for outlets for your restless qualities, and cannot tolerate drudgery and monotony. It is rather difficult for you to express your deeper thoughts and feelings unless you are very sure you will not be misunderstood. You experience self-consciousness and discomfort in association whenever it seems to be nothing but meaningless chitchat and sociability. The nervous intensity experienced with this name can lead to health weaknesses centring in the heart, lungs, or stomach. Loving the outdoors, you enjoy outside activities and the beauty of nature in its many facets.
