The name of Shantara has given you the desire for creative, artistic or musical expression in an original way. You could be inventive and ingenious along practical lines. You tend to scatter your efforts and to avoid those activities that require concentration, system and order, and attention to detail. Although you meet new people easily, it is not easy for you to maintain a relaxed, harmonious relationship. Seldom planning ahead, you undertake projects and work out the details as circumstances arise. Because you like to get your own way, and your name makes it difficult for you to see things from other points of view, others accuse you of obstinacy or self-centredness. As your independence and freedom are very important, you will seldom tolerate limitations. You do not depend on others for encouragement, but you respond to appreciation and enjoy being the centre of attention. Health weaknesses centre in the head with the use of this name: headcolds, sinus problems, headaches, or hay fever. In an argument, you usually emerge victor, but at a cost.
