Yanni
mental interests and abilities

Yanni has the ability to concentrate and become completely immersed in his work. Yanni seems to know things at an instinctive, nonverbal level and prefers learning through direct experience or apprenticeship rather than through books or lectures. Yanni has mechanical ability and works well with his hands. Yanni could become adept at sculpture, pottery, carpentry or anything that involves manual creativity. Biology (and related fields such as medicine) interests him as well. Yanni also has an instinctive rapport with animals, and may feel that he relates better to them than to people! Yanni tends to become narrowly focused on his own specialized interests and may not have much to say or communicate outside of that particular field.

Yanni has an unquenchable thirst for knowledge and wisdom, and for an increasingly broad understanding of life. Yanni is the perpetual student who will be involved in higher education, philosophy or religion. Law, broadcasting, publishing or communication are also areas of interest to Yanni. World travel and studying other cultures are also strong urges of his.

Yanni has an abundance of ideas, interests, and plans for the future, and may find it difficult to focus on any single area. He is not a specialist for he seeks a broad overview; he wants a glance of the whole picture rather than a close scrutiny of its components. Philosophy, religion or other areas of theoretical speculation interest him.

He also possesses foresight, numerous enterprising ideas and a gambling instinct - all of which contribute to his success in the business world. However, Yanni's optimism and grand vision can also get him into trouble. Yanni sometimes promises more than he can deliver, glosses over important details that come back to haunt him later, and overestimates the potential of an idea or product.

Traveling is a great love of Yanni's, especially if there is a mind-expanding or educational aspect involved, and Yanni may travel extensively in his work. Consulting or education would be ideal fields for him.

He is an original thinker, capable of unique discoveries and innovations, but he tends to scatter his energies in too many directions at once and to make impulsive or hasty decisions. Yanni grasps ideas very quickly and becomes impatient with duller or more conservative minds. A fast-moving, mentally stimulating, and unpredictable atmosphere suits Yanni quite well, even though he may complain about the stress and the crazy pace. Yanni has a technical bent and is interested in the newest scientific theories and findings, electronics, computers, etc.

His mind does not function in a linear, logical manner and Yanni is often unable to express his thoughts in simple, everyday language. Symbols, images, art or music better express Yanni's ideas. Flights of imagination and fantasy carry Yanni into strange and beautiful worlds, and he could foster the ability to transcribe some of his perceptions so as to share them with others, for example, by writing fantasy, fiction, lyrics or poetry. Yanni is sensitive to nuances and possesses intuitive or psychic gifts, but he may become confused between imagination and true perception. Yanni has a strong mystical and idealistic bent, and has difficulty focusing his attention on practical or mundane activities. Yanni is strongly attracted to metaphysical and spiritual topics.

Yanni has a strong need to mentally dominate others and always take the lead in his conversations with people. He is able to exert a powerful influence in his community and has far-reaching ideas to change the world for the better.
