Your first name of Gerens 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. However, independence, positivity and the urge for action and progress are such strong forces in your nature that you find it difficult to control them. You are happy and in good spirits as long as headway is being made, but as soon as you feel obstructed or your individuality and freedom of action are curtailed, you experience an intense nervous reaction in your solar plexus. However you must beware of driving yourself to exhaustion as a substitute for relaxation. 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. Although you are not demonstrative of your feelings in family relationships, you maintain a strong sense of loyalty. Routine, monotony, and the responsibility of looking after details can have a similar effect on you, as you are a person who desires change, travel, and new experiences. The effect of the nervous tension can appear in childhood as stuttering.
