About Me

So my life has been a bit crazy the last year or two. But they say, what doesn't kill us only makes us stronger. We learn from everything we do, or don't do. Every opportunity is a learning experience waiting to happen. Those that enter our lives, always have a purpose. It's only how we choose to take it. Those that know me, know I'm a bit of a hard ass, but can be broken down with the right person- over time. (Not that I'm looking to be "broken down" :-)lol) So, about me... Well, I love cold weather & lots of snow. But I have recently noticed, I now love palm trees :-) I love the smell of burning leaves in the fall & carving pumpkins. Satin sheets & a hot fireplace. Working on my own car; changing my oil, brakes, etc. My art, absolutely my artwork, hopefully someday open my own gallery & teaching at a college. I love the outdoors, getting dirty & experiencing all this world has to offer. I love animals (I have 2 cats- gotta give them some credit here...) I love to wear high heals & will do so at almost any cost. My car, which I do love, is usually trashed- but my house is pretty much spotless. I love to workout & bike when i have time. I LOVE to cook- doesn't matter what it is- I promise I'm good at it all! :-) My favorite color is green. I love history & period films. Every light fixture in my house is antique iron. (Maybe I'd be happier in a castle!) LOL! I make too many facial expressions, & tend to be an open book to those I let in. :-)

My Interests

Art, Outdoors & Wildlife, Biking, Camping, Skiing & playing in the snow... Visiting my friends in Alaska, Cooking, Music, Watching football- GO BEARS!, figure skating, playing the violin & shopping- cause I am a girl with a slight weakness. Custom art commissions- for those interested in my work, I offer custom art pieces for homes & businesses. (My goal one day would be to have my own art gallery.)

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.
