Your name of Selkie gives you independence and determination. You work best alone making your own decisions as it is not always easy for you to respond to the advice and direction of others as you feel the need to be in control. Lavish affection tends to embarrass you, yet often you desire to be natural, and to seek affection and understanding from those closest to you. You experience peace in nature and, through observing nature, can acknowledge the harmony and the harshness of life that applies to nature’s laws of instinct and survival. You find your own solutions and innovations to get a job completed. Once you get an idea, you forge ahead, despite obstacles, until you reach the end of your project. Investigating and studying aspects of the universe or nature, for example, as an astronomer or naturalist, appeal to your pioneering qualities and your desire to seek your own answers to life. You prefer the simple life and do not mind making do at times. You work best where you can combine physical labour with mental activity. Living much within your own thoughts and finding it challenging to communicate easily with others, you are, at times, too candid and honest in your assessment of situations.
