The name of Benedin creates a shrewd, aggressive, business nature, intent on personal gain. 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. Your judgment is seldom swayed through your feelings. 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. There is a need to project yourself as a person of worth and expensive tastes, and you judge others on the same basis. Circumstances requiring the expression of sympathy, encouragement, or appreciation cause you to feel awkward and at a loss for words. On the other hand, you can be very charitable and generous in your support of worthwhile causes. 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. More congenial business and personal relationships would result from being more tactful and more aware of the needs of others.
