Your first name of Barthold has created a deep, sensitive, refined nature with an intelligent mind and a keen appreciation of material values. You are articulate in expressing your thoughts on business or impersonal matters, but, when it comes to sharing your deeper feelings, this name creates a restriction. In school, you could have been good at mathematics, accounting, science, computer programming, or any subject that required your full interest and attention. Although you have a sensitive inner nature and a desire for affection and understanding, your dignified manner and reserve often give the impression that you are aloof and wishing to distance yourself. You enjoy all the finer things in life that a good standard of living allows. Early in life you learned that you could accomplish anything you put your mind to: you set a goal and you proceeded step by step through focused thinking and concentrated effort. Although you appear calm and in control at all times, constant pressures and difficult decisions can cause you inner turmoil. Others could perceive you as proud, and even unfriendly. You live much within your own thoughts, and seek relaxation away from people, out in nature, where you can ease the tensions of your life. You find it difficult to express your true feelings, whether it be affection, appreciation, or tenderness, which play such an important part in creating a close bond within the family.
