Your first name of Westen has given you a quick, analytical mind. Also, you must guard against using indulgence as an escape. This name creates a desire to be a leader, to pioneer new undertakings, and to try new ideas in practical, creative endeavours that provide an outlet for your versatility and imagination. Moods of depression often result as well as outbursts of temper, caustic remarks, or a belligerent attitude towards everyone, especially those closest to you. Competitive sports or challenging outdoor activities could bring you pleasure and relief from pent-up frustrations. Any criticism from others causes you to retaliate cuttingly in self-defense. Your great initiative and driving power would enable you to excel in sales and promotion, and could take you far in business success, but you must guard against losing interest once your initial enthusiasm in a project wanes. The urge for action or progress is such a strong force in your nature that you find difficulty in controlling it. The effect of the nervous tension can appear in childhood as stuttering. In order to gain greater congeniality in your personal associations, you need to cultivate a more relaxed manner, greater generosity, understanding, and tolerance, and, above all, you need to avoid being too outspoken and self-opinionated.
