The name of Almeta gives you a clever, quick, analytical mind, but you suffer with a great deal of self-consciousness, lack of confidence, and much aloneness because of misunderstandings. You desire refinement and are easily offended by coarse humour or bad manners. There are times when you experience inner turbulence at your inability to say what you mean. It is far easier for you to express your deeper thoughts and feelings through writing than verbally. You tend to be secretive and noncommittal about private matters, yet at times you will talk effusively in order to hide your self-consciousness or to lead others away from personal subjects. Whatever you choose, you invariably prefer to work on your own. Because you tend to place great importance on little gestures and nuances, both in your own expression and in others' communication with you, it is easy for you to misconstrue another's intent and take too personally what is not meant to hurt. It is often only through writing that you can express your higher ideals or your true appreciation for those you love. Outwardly you often appear calm and in control, while inwardly you are experiencing turmoil and tension. You are inspired by encouragement from others, yet suspicious of their intent.
