The name of Aelfdene gives you a clever, quick, analytical mind, but you suffer with a great deal of self-consciousness, lack of confidence, and much aloneness because of misunderstandings. You could excel in mathematics or science or other fields that require extreme focus and concentration, or you could be drawn to working with the products of the earth. You find pleasure in literature, in poetry, and in your ideals and will turn to them when you feel you have been misunderstood. even in a crowd. There are times when you experience inner turbulence at your inability to say what you mean. You are sensitive about your idealistic thoughts, and an unappreciative person can hurt you and cause you to become secretive about that which you value deeply. You tend to be secretive and noncommittal about private matters, yet at times you will talk effusively in order to hide your self-consciousness or to lead others away from personal subjects. Because your feelings run deep, you must guard against the ups and downs, being very inspired one minute, then moody, reserved, and depressed the next. You are inspired by encouragement from others, yet suspicious of their intent. You crave affection but seldom find anyone who understands your nature.
