About Me

"Those who find life empty have not realised that it is full of temptations"

A purveyor of "sinister whimsy". A seeker of life's great Mysteries.

93

EMPEROR "the pioneer, builder, doer,
visionary"
You create what is needed for future generations.
You have a deep love for adventure, travel,
change, the creative process, setting new
things in motion, and changing both
internally and externally. You have a great
gift of visionary perception, an eye for what
is and is not working.
