Your first name of Clifton creates a quick, clever mind capable of grasping and assimilating new ideas. You can give expression to your personal thoughts and feelings most fluently through the written word. Your feelings are very easily hurt and to protect yourself you withdraw within the realms of your own private thoughts and shut out the rest of the world. You crave friendship, understanding, love, and affection but your reserved manner appears forbidding to others. Although you are very knowledgeable and intelligent, you often find spontaneous verbal expression difficult. Because you learn so quickly you have little patience with those whose mental processes are somewhat slower, and you could become supercilious or somewhat "know it all" in your attitude. You are sensitive to harmony or discord in the home and workplace, and intuitive to how you are regarded by others. Associating with your own age group often does not hold your interest and you tend to seek the stimulation of minds more mature than yourself. Health problems revolve primarily around worry and a weakness in the respiratory area that could lead to problems with the heart, lungs, or bronchial organs. Your sensitivity and lack of verbal expression frustrate and limit the satisfaction in life to be gained from your responsible and capable nature.
