Libra

It is amazing to find out how true your personalities and traits can be when compared to zodiac /astrology definitions.

I am a true Libran: I was born exactly in the middle of the sign, on October 7th. The sign of balance really suits me...I am never 'middle of the road' in my opinions. I either feel very strongly for or against something. This can be very difficult when making important decisions, therefore, I always search out facts and ideas very thoroughly.

The metal for Librans is copper...I have loved this metal for as long as I can remember...there is something so special about it. I crafted my own wand of copper.

The Tarot Card is The Empress.....this is also the card of Hera, who is one of my favorite Goddesses. I have been drawn to her most of my life. Some say Hera is 'evil and vindictive'. But she is also the protectress of marriage and childbirth. In the Rider-Waite Tarot Deck, The Empress is pictured with a heart shaped shield with a drawing of the symbol for 'Venus' on it. And Librans are ruled by the planet Venus. Co-incidence???

Peacock

My zodiac color is purple. Again this has always been my favorite color. My favorite stone is amythest - which is shades of purple.

With Libra being the seventh sign of the zodiac , it was appropriate that I was born on the 7th!!! I am also the 7th grandchild of a 7th child. And seven has always been my lucky number!! Another co-incidence??

Peacock I celebrate the festivals solitary, but to the best of my ability. For me the festivals are not so much what I say, but how I feel....peace and tranquility washes over me....its like I am totally alone with the Goddess and Gods. And I feel them touch my soul......There have been times where I can just sit for hours in my field in absolute tranquility and 'oneness'.

I am a rabid genealogist.....family history is most important. I believe strongly in preserving the history of one's family so it may be passed down to the next generations as well as helping us know who we are and where we came from. A passion is some of the different traditions that are handed down. In general, most Italians of past centuries were rigidly bound by tradition to give their children certain names. A firstborn son would be named for his paternal grandfather, a secondborn son for his maternal grandfather, a firstborn daughter for her paternal grandmother, and so forth. Yet, quite a few parents deviated from this practice, and I think today, unless the family is very strong, it also deviates from tradition. I love reading and collecting books on the Civil War. I love Civil War sites and finding out about my family who served in it. Another passion is researching the Etruscan culture...a most facinating peoples. I enjoy reading JRR Tolkien and Marion Zimmer Bradley. The 'Mists of Avalon' is one of my all-time favorites. As far as music, I guess you could say that I am 'stuck' in the 50's and 60's roll 'n roll!! Altho some of todays music is ok, I still prefer 'the oldies'.

Stregheria is for ANYONE who feels the pull to learn and study. This is my religion....I am always learning....I do not prefess to know everything that is Stregheria..now if I can ever get to Italy to REALLY study that would be awesome!!!!

For the record, I am not associated with Raven Grimassi or Clan Umbrea. I am not an initiate of his tradition.
