Your first name of Pericles creates a serious, thoughtful nature, shrewd, efficient, and business-minded. You are not overly ambitious, preferring instead just to seek stable, settled conditions which are adequate to meet your responsibilities. Your accomplishments give you a great deal of satisfaction, and involvement in social activities can sometimes make you feel that you are wasting time. In times of need, others are drawn to your forthright, matter-of-fact manner. Helping those in less fortunate circumstances is important to you. Being self-assured and self-reliant, you are naturally inclined toward operating your own business or pursuing opportunities where your sense of freedom would not be curtailed. You do not change your mind readily. It is sometimes challenging for you to listen to and understand the viewpoints of others because your opinions are strong, carefully thought out, and sensible. In your personal relations with others, you are inclined to be rather serious, and not to see the humour others see, or to respond spontaneously. A tendency to worry far too much over obligations and responsibilities could lead to a disturbed mental state.
