More Rome Pics

Beautiful doorways all around Rome

My handsome husband - he looks good! He looks real good!

The Italian Tomb of the Unknown Soldier

Enjoying a lovely pastry on the backside of the Spanish Steps. The beauty of this place is just amazing...

The Trevi Fountain. Very hard to get good pictures here because of the crowds. The fountain itself is huge and is kind of wedged in between several streets.

Knock, knock! Is anybody home?

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.
