Your name of Madeira gives you a clever, analytical mind, and causes you to be studious and serious, drawn to the deeper secrets of life. You have a dignified manner and a high regard for standards of speech and conduct. Responsible and reliable, you have a good grasp of business and apply yourself conscientiously to creating financial stability in your life and for those in your care. However, in your personal life, this reserve and reticence are often mistaken for coldness and lack of feeling, with the result that others find it difficult to understand you. You could earn the respect of others with your ability to remain calm and in control while facing challenging situations, even if internally you are experiencing turbulence. There could be misunderstandings in relationships because you feel deeply about those you love but are embarrassed to openly show your affections. As you are sensitive to unhappy or hostile situations, and reluctant to share your feelings and needs, personal conflict could make you withdrawn and overly serious or moody. Although you are not overly expressive verbally, you could excel at literary and artistic pursuits. Physical weaknesses are relative to your heart and respiratory system where you could suffer with palpitations, shortness of breath, chest colds, bronchitis, asthma, or pneumonia. As it is not easy for you to share your deeper thoughts and ideals with others, you are inclined to choose the association of those few friends with whom you feel the most at ease and with whom you can enjoy companionship in a contemplative mood without feeling pressure for verbal communication.
