My card... apparently

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.

A bit chilly???!!!!!

That is how somebody I spoke to described today's weather....

It's pretty much the same as saying that the sun is a bit warm! It is freezing outside! The actual temperature is somewhere just above freezing and the joys of the wind chill factor bring that down to about -10°C. A bit chilly my arse (which incidentally is as cold as the rest of me). We've had snow, rain, hail, sleet and gale-force winds. Bloody marvellous! It's not even November yet for Chrissake!

 

On a happier note:

I think I'm in love...
