The name of Yanting creates a dual nature in that you can be very generous and understanding, but you can also be so candid in your expression that you create misunderstanding. You have your own strong opinions and it is not easy for you to be influenced by others to change your mind once you have reached a decision. Thus, you have too often created the wrong impression, and friendships have suffered. You struggle with the requirement to soften your expression with tact and diplomacy and to consider the feelings of others. You tend to scatter your efforts by being involved in too many activities at times, thereby forfeiting success in some areas because of lack of attention to detail. You appreciate mental exploration into new ideas. You dislike monotony. Overtaxing your nervous system by being under too much pressure brings about your temperamental reactions. This quality can spoil friendships and create losses in the affections. You have very intense feelings and find it difficult to maintain stability and happiness.
