Your name of Ijan gives you a strong urge for independence. Neither sentimental nor idealistic, you take life as it comes and learn as you go. You are steadfast and loyal, and do not allow gossip or anything belittling to be said against those whom you accept in friendship. Under circumstances when others are expressive, you feel inferior because of your inability to communicate your deeper thoughts and feelings. You have known misunderstandings and a tendency to jealousy and moods of depression. Although you realize perfectly well what is expected of you, you are unable to find the right words, and hence you end up saying something inappropriate in a candid way. When you are required to express yourself in personal matters requiring finesse and diplomacy, you feel awkward and embarrassed. As a result, others withdraw from you as they find you to be somewhat severe, aloof, and uncommunicative. You work best where you can combine physical labour and prefer to work where you can spend time outdoors. You find satisfaction in being outdoors or in getting out into nature, or in dealing with the products of the earth.
