Your first name of Arty creates individuality, independence, self-confidence, initiative, and an inclination to physical activity. You are not drawn to music, the arts, literature, or other refinements in life, being content instead to satisfy basic comforts and needs. Once friendship is established, you are very loyal and steadfast and do not tolerate gossip or criticism. Your circle of friends is restricted to those of like nature. Your name gives you self-confidence, initiative, and an inclination to physical activity, preferably with the opportunity to be outdoors. You are not inclined to merge your opinions and viewpoints with others, to accept compromise, or to work in a subservient position against your will. You would find particular satisfaction in working with your hands, either in a skilled trade or in a hobby. Others find it difficult to accept your domineering and, at times, argumentative manner. Such conditions are aggravated by your appetite for heavy foods such as bread, potatoes, or milk, which promote the formation of mucus in the system. In your close associations and family life, there is little demonstration of sentiment, appreciation, sympathy, or encouragement.
