Your first name of Devine has given you a quick, analytical mind. Once you have given your word and undertaken a commitment, you are completely steadfast in following through in spite of any regret or frustration you may later experience in doing so. Routine, monotony, and the responsibility of looking after details can have a similar effect. You are creative, versatile, and imaginative. Any criticism from others causes you to retaliate cuttingly in self-defense. Your self-sufficient and self-reliant nature gave you the urge to leave home early in life to be free from parental restraint, and to establish your independence and freedom from tradition. At the best of times, you are not naturally disposed to be companionable and sociable, as diplomacy and finding the right words for the situation do not come easily to you. Family and friends find it hard to understand you because of your changing moods, and because of your intolerance and indifference towards their ideas, interests, and feelings. 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.
