The name of Shipman creates a shrewd, aggressive, business nature, intent on personal gain. On the other hand, you can be very charitable and generous in your support of worthwhile causes. The desires for independence and financial success have been strong motivating forces from early in your life. As you are inclined to be too blunt and forceful in dealing with people, others can feel intimidated and become resentful over your authoritative manner. Misunderstandings can arise. Your circle of friends is drawn from those who share your straightforward, positive manner and materialistic goals, and you are loyal and steadfast once your relationships are established. However, you do have an aptitude for assessing the skills, strengths, and weaknesses of others, which would enable you to build and lead a successful team. You can be demanding and shrewd in financial matters, especially with regard to the repayment of money owed to you or the timely fulfilment of other obligations. If you sacrifice too much for material ambition, there may result a lack of harmony and balance in your personal life. Also the generative organs could be an area of weakness.
