Your first name of Ash creates individuality, independence, self-confidence, initiative, and an inclination to physical activity. You would find particular satisfaction in working with your hands, either in a skilled trade or in a hobby. If you felt dominated by your parents, you would likely have left home at an early age. It is difficult for you to find the right words for such circumstances. Your expression is invariably quite direct and candid, and lacks the moderating tone of tact, diplomacy, and friendliness. 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. Your circle of friends is restricted to those of like nature. Once friendship is established, you are very loyal and steadfast and do not tolerate gossip or criticism. 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. Ailments in the form of headaches, head colds, sinus or mastoid conditions, or loss of hair could be troublesome.
