Your first name of Shantina creates an intense desire for association with people and new experiences, many of which have been rather bitter. Through lack of discretion and being too emotional, you could attract bitter experiences and disappointments in people. One side desires placidity, relaxation, and social activities, while the other side longs for change and travel, and opportunities that allow you to be creative and independent from all routine and interference. Your extreme sensitivity and intensity have an adverse effect on your nervous system and, under extreme pressure, could cause a nervous breakdown. You make the effort to communicate with others because you place importance on having people like you. Your name creates two conflicting natures. Talking comes easily to you, but you must guard against your inclination to talk too much, especially if you are overstressed. You desire change and travel and would enjoy opportunities that allowed you to be creative and to act independently, rather than to conform to system and routine. While you do have a quick, clever mind, the tensions and limitations this name places upon your happiness and success in life far outweigh the benefits. You are too open to suggestion, and thus you could become involved in detrimental associations which could lead you into by-paths of thrill-seeking or emotional indulgence.
