Your first name of Petra gives you a clever mind, good business judgment, a sense of responsibility, and an appreciation of the finer things of life. Your skills in dealing with people could readily elevate you into managerial positions. From an early age you have desired a home and children, and you have the necessary stable and nurturing qualities to make a good parent. In school you needed to be challenged, otherwise you could lose interest and stop applying yourself to your studies. Humanitarian and generous with your time, you are often compelled to offer your services to make life easier for others. You have a need to be independent and you prefer to make decisions without interference from others. Although you are respected for your steadiness and analytic qualities, you are sometimes resented for what is perceived as bossiness or interference when you impose your will on others in your desire to help them resolve their problems. Whatever you set out to accomplish you do your very best to complete in accordance with what you consider to be right. Due to a tendency to take life too seriously, a weakness of this name could be excessive worry over problems and responsibilities. Others can rely on you; once you have given your word you will do your utmost to fulfil a responsibility.
