Your first name of Phoenix creates a friendly, sociable, charming nature, but causes you to be too easily influenced by others. You can be very obliging, helping others in times of need and neglecting your own duties. Your tendency to be candid, and at times abrupt, causes misunderstandings. It is sometimes difficult for you to muster the interest, initiative, and reasoning ability to concentrate and to think through complex concepts, especially in subjects that do not hold your interest. Very often you put off activities until you are forced to take action. You can be obstinate and self-opinionated, yet you desire to create harmony with others. A stubborn quality within you does not allow you to accept that you may have made a mistake or said the wrong thing. You tend to develop new abilities only as the need arises in your life, rather than being naturally curious and interested in scientific or philosophical studies. When asked, you are able to give others good advice that you would probably not follow yourself, but must guard against being too opinionated in controversial matters. In a position dealing with the public, you could do well because of your friendly personality, interest in people, and desire to please.
