Your first name of Nichol creates a quick, clever mind capable of grasping and assimilating new ideas. For your interest to be retained you need to be mentally challenged; this was most evident when young and in school. Craving understanding, love, and affection but disinclined to verbalize your emotions, you may appear cold and aloof to those who would offer kindness. Associating with your own age group often does not hold your interest and you tend to seek the stimulation of minds more mature than yourself. You are rather studious, mentally challenging each new idea before accepting it. Although you are very knowledgeable and intelligent, you often find spontaneous verbal expression difficult. You work best on your own in fields such as with the products of the earth, real estate, or computer sciences, as long as you have the freedom to make your own decisions. You crave friendship, understanding, love, and affection but your reserved manner appears forbidding to others. It is often only through writing that you open up and convey your deepest feelings and true appreciation for those you love. Your sensitivity and lack of verbal expression frustrate and limit the satisfaction in life to be gained from your responsible and capable nature.
