Your first name of Amitava 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 this name that restrict your imaginative, creative talents and make you deliberate and careful. Although you can be thorough in whatever you decide to undertake, you prefer to avoid technical, mathematical work. Family and home life are important as long as a routine does not become monotonous. Giving yourself something to look forward to provides the incentive to work your way through monotonous tasks. However, you find it difficult to reciprocate, as your expression tends to be matter-of-fact in responding to others. On occasion, you can 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. There is conflict between your desires and your expression which does not allow scope for your capabilities. This lack of fulfilment of your deeper qualities tends to create repression and frustration.
