I finally found my way back and read what you drew for me - Artemis and Demeter - and it all sounded familiar and felt "right". I studied a lot of mythology in high school and read a lot as a kid because of some books my grandmother had - Greek, Roman and Norse mythology. If you can do this for me on a daily basis, I would really appreciate it. I loved those descriptions. I was feeling a little down over something that had happened especially when one of the guys I worked with said something about obviously I wasn't a girly girl. I guess I'm not supposed to be. I enjoy being a female, but I also enjoy doing things most girls/women don't and I think these two cards pointed that out to me. Thank you so very much
I greatly appreciate this.

Tasha, I am having a hard time understanding the reading you gave me. Is it telling me that I don't like to do anything halfway and ? I don't know how to interpret this.... never had a reading before. Thanks.
Find your joy and live it. http://cheneybaglady.blogspot.com/http://www.kpaints.etsy.com FG #377 |

Kay,
When someone tells me I'm not a girly girl I take it as a compliment! Girly girls are seen as weak and childish...at least to my thinking...though I do like to wear skirts...!

The thing that freaked them, other than I know as much about mechanics as they do, was I got my shirt dirty and didn't get all upset. It was down the back and I couldn't see it. Everyone kept saying it was really bad so at lunch I went to the ladies' room and took it off to try to clean it. If that was the dirtiest I had ever gotten, I would have been thrilled. I just told everyone - "Big deal. It'll wash. A can of Coke in the wash cycle does wonders". You should have seen jaws hit the ground. In our house, things are a little weird. I want to be outside working and doing stuff whereas my husband wants a clean house and can cook like a dream. We discussed it the other night because I was afraid that maybe he got disappointed that I didn't turn out to be super feminine, etc., but he said he wouldn't change anything, so I guess I'm where I'm supposed to be and doing what I'm supposed to be doing. I've always identified with the "warrior chick" goddesses in mythology, so I guess that's why.

Alee- Ix Chel:Ix Chel is the ancient Mayan moon goddess who reigned supreme throughout the Yucatan Peninsula in Souther Mexico and as far South as El Salvador for more than a millennium. She is also called the Queen, Our Mother, the white Lady, and the Goddess of Becoming. Although married to the sun, she is fiercely independent, allowing none to own her: she remains free to come and go as she chooses. As a fertility goddess, she makes women fruitful and send fertilizing rains to the earth. She is particularly honored as a patroness of childbirth and a healing goddess of medicine. Like many moon goddesses, she is the patroness of weaving. Ix Chel, like the waxing and waning moon, is comfortable with all sides of life. Her energy is midwife to our own creative ideas.
Tamara- Epona: Epona, from Celtic Gaul, vas especially worshiped as a protectress of horses, a bringer of fecundity to mares and a giver of well-being to foals. She was the only Celtic goddess to be adopted by the Romans. A lunar goddess, Epona is often depicted with a cornucopia, a symbol of abundance and plenty. Like the symbol of the horse, she is a bringer of fertility, a source of inspiration, and a figure of death-a psychopomp on the soul's final journey. As late as the twelfth century, Irish kings underwengt a ceremony of sybolic birth from Epona in her form of a white mare as part of claiming their kingship. In ancient days, a king was ritually wedded to the goddess as part of becoming king. Comfortable in both the realm of life and that of death, Epona is a strong symbol of independence, nurturing, intuitive understanding, instinct and vitality.
Melissa- ALSO Epona: Epona, from Celtic Gaul, vas especially worshiped as a protectress of horses, a bringer of fecundity to mares and a giver of well-being to foals.

In ancient days, a king was ritually wedded to the goddess as part of becoming king. Comfortable in both the realm of life and that of death, Epona is a strong symbol of independence, nurturing, intuitive understanding, instinct and vitality.
Julia- Gaia:Gaia existed before everything: she existed before time. Gaia, the eternal, prehistoric earth mother goddess, is fertility incarnate, moist, mysterious, strong. She is like energy itself; everything that lives, breathing or not, overflows with her life. She is the earth and all the powers of the earth. Gaia is not always a consoling goddess: standing for life and generation without thought of consequence, she had an energy and a power that must be approached carefully. All bodies eventually return to her, into the black, fertile earth, to be devoured and to receive her life to live again. As goddess of the soul, Gaia reminds us that we must ground ourselves in the reality of nature and incorporate all sides of ourselves, be they pleasant or unpleasant, light or dark.
Heide- Artemis:Artemis, the archaic mistress of animals, probably dates back to Paleolithic times. Her realm is the wilderness, and her concern extends to all wild untamed things. She presides over the hunt and is the goddess of hunters. Fiercely individualistic and independent, she remains apart from relationship to men. Despite her fierceness she is addressed as a healing and soothing goddess. Protector of births, she alleviates the suffering of women in childbirth. She is also responsible for the initiation of young girls. Artemis is a wonderful symbol of female independence. She reminds us of the value of solitude and the importance of wild, unprotected places. She shows us those frightening places that bring healing even through fear.
Annika- Pele:Pele is the fiery Hawaiian volcano goddess. The daughter of the earth goddess Haimea, Pele came to Hawai'i on a boat. Killed in a fight with her sister, the ocean, she took refuge in the glowing cauldron of Mount Kilauea, where she receives the souls of the dead and regenerates them with fire. In tempestuous relationship with Kamapua'a, the ferocious pig god, she is portrayed as a jealous goddess, her rages manifesting as volcanic eruptions. Revered by Hawaiians even today, she carries the force of the volcano, with its molten lava flow, which even in destruction creates new land. Pele stands for the molten, fierce aspect of life that is unable to do anything halfway. She reminds us that even in the midst of fiery eruption there is creation and new life.
Rebecca- Minerva: Although Minerva, the Roman goddess of war and wisdom, is usually portrayed as equivalent to the Greek goddess Athena, she was originally an Etruscan goddess of dawn. She is revered as a goddess of wisdom, for the light of dawn typifies knowledge. She guides heroes in war and is matron of all arts, crafts, guilds, and medicine. Called by Ovid "the goddess of a thousand works," she was the inventor of musical instruments, numbers and many crafts, including weaving. The serpent and the owl were sacred to her. The serpent is an emblem of life energy and the creative impulse. The owl is a symbol of death and wisdom and thus, Minerva, a goddess of the dawn and of wisdom, is also a goddess of death and transformation. Minerva is an incarnation of wisdom in human form, an affirmation that we can use our knowledge and wisdom in the pursuit of any goal we choose.
did I miss anyone? I am really enjoying this, I am intrigued by those that are lingering. The Goddesses must have quite a bit to share among us all to spread themselves out among us! I am thrilled!
