I am the Empress with the tarot card test ...


You are The Empress


Beauty, happiness, pleasure, success, luxury, dissipation.

The Empress is associated with Venus, the feminine planet, so it represents,
beauty, charm, pleasure, luxury, and delight. You may be good at home
decorating, art or anything to do with making things beautiful.

The Empress is a creator, be it creation of life, of romance, of art or business. While the Magician is the primal spark, the idea made real, and the High Priestess is the one who gives the idea a form, the Empress is the womb where it gestates and grows till it is ready to be born. This is why her symbol is Venus, goddess of beautiful things as well as love. Even so, the Empress is more Demeter, goddess of abundance, then sensual Venus. She is the giver of Earthly gifts, yet at the same time, she can, in anger withhold, as Demeter did when her daughter, Persephone, was kidnapped. In fury and grief, she kept the Earth barren till her child was returned to her.

goodbye to a sweet sweet friend...

i have lost a dear friend a furbaby his name was Jett he had been sick for a while now and i nursed him and his med's worked for a while and gave him some relief but it got to the stage that i knew they were no longer helping him , he was 12 years old and he and his brother Nike gave me many years of total joy and love , little Nike keeps looking for his mate and its heartbreaking to see...

Jett was a cross shiz shu a lovely little boy, not a mean bone in his body, loved everyone and was a pleasure , even the lady who used to clip him said he was the best of all the dogs she clipped , he would even start to go to sleep while she was using the shaver on him lol just layed there bless him , he used to snore too so loud lol

well the time was here ,so i took him to the vet and as usual he just layed still while the vet put the canula into his foot , then the vet gave him a liver treat ( he loved them) and then the injection, he had his head in my arms and just went to sleep , knowing no different it was so nice to see he just nodded off and all his pain was gone.

At christmas he would let my niece Tyler May dress him up and   he would sit on her bed , even let her dress him like a girl lol he was so easy going nothing bothered him , now he is up with all the other angels and running free , god bless u little man and i miss u

mum and Nike xxxxxxxxxxxx

Do you have the Weirdo Syndrome .....

i have just read a post  and it was written for me lol its me to a tee, do u remember high school when all u wanted was to fit in , but what u had to give up to do it , i do , but after having my 2 girls and being a mother of school age children, i realized i had to be there for them , to speak up and to guide and to tell them that not being one of the cool kids was ok to be themselves lol oh the memories it bought back lol so it was then i decided that if i was preaching that to them i had to do it myself , so i did , i have only ever had about 5 true friends that took me for who i was and that was ok , there were toxic people around me pulling me down, so out they went , who needs negative people around pretending to be friends while using u for their own means , ok that sounds unkind but we must be true to ourselves first and foremost , so after reading this post i realized i had done the right thing and i was not alone , not the only weirdo out there he he oh what joy to find it, so please off u go to read it and please return and let me know if u are a weirdo too ....

embrace your muse....namaste
