Shelby - Detailed Meaning

Your name, Shelby, makes you independent, confident, and ambitious. You are active, vital, and adventuresome, always seeking new experiences and challenges. You are willing to take chances. Being self-willed and self-sufficient, you gravitate to professional positions or other situations where you assume major responsibilities and make important decisions. You could excel in finance, law, economics, mathematics, or sales and promotion.
 
Since you are ambitious and astute, you should never be subservient to others. As long as you are going forward and making progress, you are happy. If you are required to stand still for long or plod systematically and monotonously, you begin to feel rebellious and look once again for new and interesting experiences.
 

 
Being forthright and outspoken, you often champion causes. Fair treatment for everyone is important to you. You work best alone and unrestricted because a sense of freedom is essential to your well-being. Provided you are not pushed or driven, and as long as an idea holds your interest, you can accomplish almost anything. You concentrate intensely for short periods of time and, sometimes, you may live a thing night and day until you lose interest.
 

 
Your strong likes and dislikes and your intense nature generate tremendous energy that must be given outlet in creative accomplishment and progress; otherwise, you are susceptible to restlessness, moods, or feelings of frustration and repression.
 

 
You desire to progress, to be financially successful, and to have the best that money can buy. You are a stickler for detail, particularly where money is concerned. Quick to notice inefficiency, you often see where results could be achieved more effectively and with less effort. Exercising patience with the slow, plodding traits of others is a challenge for you because of your quick-minded, perceptive nature. As a result, others may regard you as somewhat superior in your attitude.
 

 
You are serious about life and cannot stand ridicule, nor can you appreciate a joke at your expense. You generally have an excellent memory. Not forgiving easily, you may hold grudges for years. As you seldom break a promise yourself, you tend to be overly critical of those who do not live up to their promises.
 

 
Although you are not easily influenced against your better judgment, there are times when your trust of others overrides your judgment, bringing disappointments in people and disruptions in your undertakings.
 

 
Under stressful conditions, you could suffer disturbances in the female organs. Tension could also centre in the solar plexus resulting in nervous indigestion and stomach disorders. The use of this name makes it difficult for you to express your softer, feminine characteristics because it spoils relaxation and affability. It tends to make you too unresponsive and inflexible.
 

Health Analysis

• Your intense, restless nature can bring on tension which affects the solar plexus and digestion, or the female organs.
