Your first name of Yajnavati has given you a desire for self-expression and for positions that allow contact with people, free from the restrictions and monotony into which you are often drawn. You desire to be spontaneous and artistic but there are qualities in your first name that restrict your imaginative, creative talents and make you deliberate and careful. If told that you must do something, you tend to resist, but when your sense of co-operation is appealed to, then your desire to please brings out your best. You enjoy sharing, giving, and creating, and you find your reward in seeing happiness in others. You can be easily hurt by harsh words and depreciatory remarks, but you hide your feelings and appear indifferent as though they do not affect you. On occasion, you tend to be very fussy and particular over incidentals and, at other times, too scattering and inconsistent. You are easily reached through sympathy to help someone in need, and always rise to the occasion in an emergency. Family and home life are important as long as a routine does not become monotonous. This lack of fulfilment of your deeper qualities tends to create repression and frustration. You enjoy sugars and starchy, rich foods.
