Your first name of Gerlanda has created a deep, sensitive, refined nature with an intelligent mind and a keen appreciation of material values. Thus, you can experience loneliness. Those close to you may feel unsettled and insecure because of mixed messages: you show an undercurrent of possessiveness yet you hesitate to express affection, appreciation, and tenderness. In school, you could have been good at mathematics, accounting, science, computer programming, or any subject that required your full interest and attention. You work best in an independent capacity, where you are able to think problems out carefully before you act. Although you appear calm and in control at all times, constant pressures and difficult decisions can cause you inner turmoil. Your sensitivity and reserve prevent people from coming close in friendship. Good business judgment and your ability to think and plan carefully before you act could bring desired material accumulation and financial success. 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. When responsibilities become too much, to regain your composure, you seek an outlet in the outdoors or you retreat into your own private space.
