Your name of Hastings gives you a strong urge for independence. A physically active person, you have an appreciation for outdoor recreation, which you prefer to pursue on your own or with one or two close friends who share the same affinity for the peace of nature and the physical challenges it provides. Your name often makes you feel separate and alone. Under circumstances when others are expressive, you feel inferior because of your inability to communicate your deeper thoughts and feelings. You are not easily influenced by the opinions and actions of others and can be depended upon for assistance. Neither sentimental nor idealistic, you take life as it comes and learn as you go. You prefer to be alone with your own thoughts, rather than in the company of others. You can express your deeper thoughts and feelings best through writing. The health weaknesses due to the influence of this name could cause you to suffer either with headaches, weak eyes, sinus problems, lung and bronchial disorders such as asthma or emphysema, or a heart condition. You work best where you can combine physical labour and prefer to work where you can spend time outdoors.
