Your first name of Birta has given you a quick, analytical mind. Once you have given your word and undertaken a commitment, you are completely steadfast in following through in spite of any regret or frustration you may later experience in doing so. Your self-sufficient and self-reliant nature gave you the urge to leave home early in life to be free from parental restraint, and to establish your independence and freedom from tradition. You are creative, versatile, and imaginative. However, independence, positivity and the urge for action and progress are such strong forces in your nature that you find it difficult to control them. Routine, monotony, and the responsibility of looking after details can have a similar effect. This name creates a desire to be a leader, to pioneer new undertakings, and to try new ideas in practical, creative endeavours that provide an outlet for your versatility and imagination. You feel happy as long as headway is being made, but as soon as you are obstructed or your individuality and freedom of action are restricted, you experience an intense nervous reaction. In order to gain greater congeniality in your personal associations, you need to cultivate a more relaxed manner, greater generosity, understanding, and tolerance, and, above all, you need to avoid being too outspoken and self-opinionated. The effect of the nervous tension can appear in childhood as stuttering.
