About

Eons member since

Age, Gender
60, Female
Location
Encino, CA
Relationship
Single
Hometown
Born in Aberdeen, Washington and grew up in both Aberdeen (before 12) and then Seattle, with lots of summers spent in Los Angeles.
Places I've been
Nathan Hale High School, Seattle, WA. College: Grays Harbor Community College and University of Washington. Occupation: Legal Assistant I've traveled quite a bit, but have still not been everywhere I want. I travel year after year to see the world, and sometimes take my granddaughter with me to show her the wonders and instill a desire in her. Unfortunately, since I work for a living, I must travel in small spurts. I've been to many states in the U.S., virtually all national parks. I've traveled through Alaska and Canada many times. Most relaxing place: Maui. I've traveled through Greece, the Greek Isles and Turkey. I've spent time in some areas of Mexico, and the Caymans, Jamaica, the western Caribbean. I could go on and on but most recently, 2-1/2 weeks traveling throughout Norway. What a beautiful country full of incredible scenery beyond compare. Norwegians are warm, friendly and well educated. Once you strike up a conversation, you'll no doubt enjoy it. Very intelligent nation.
Education
  • University of Washington, Liberal Arts - 1970 to 1972

Favorite Places
There are so many incredibly beautiful places on the face of this earth that I cannot narrow it down easily, but I really enjoy visiting the Pacific Northwest with its majestic beauty -- especially during summer. It's still home. Also love the beaches of the Hawaii and the Caribbean.
Favorite Animals
My granddaughter's little pet dog, Kittenbo, who is a "pomapoo." She's been with us for about nine years now.

    Much anti-Christian sentiment disguised as political-correctness these days. I had no idea it existed to this extent.
    Yickel's post now has me wanting to return to Church. Ha! :-)

    Oh ... I didn't make it to that one, but I did go to the museum on the Bygdøy Peninsula (it was huge, including the outdoor exhibits).

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.
