The name of Brantome has given you an appreciation for many beautiful and refined aspects of life--music and art, literature, drama--and the outdoors, where you find much peace and relaxation, but it creates a far too sensitive nature. Also, you could develop an extraordinary ability to concentrate on complex theoretical subject matter such as mathematics, although your success in such endeavours would be limited by a lack of patience and perseverance, and by difficulty in sustaining systematic effort over the long term. Family, friends, and business associates often find you to be uncommunicative and secretive. When circumstances require the expression of sympathy or appreciation, you prefer to respond in writing. When the mood suits you, you can be engaging and entertaining in a social situation, but you can swing unpredictably at the slightest offence, real or imagined, into a chilling silence that rebuffs others. You rarely experience the tranquility that comes with stability of thinking or emotional control. If you do not cultivate the positive, constructive expression of your inner feelings through creative activity, you could become lost in fantasy and idle dreaming. While you prefer to avoid crowds and interaction with the public, you could be drawn to sales and promotion where you handle an exclusive product line or where you deal with the products of the earth as in forestry, mining, or real estate. You crave understanding and affection but your intensity of desire and your self-consciousness prevent you from finding the happiness you desire. Health weaknesses could appear as disorders affecting the liver, or the heart, lungs, and bronchial tubes.
