Nov. 23rd, 2007 06:48 pmDear Multitude of Web Forum Pagans:
For Pete's sake, stop- or at least greatly reduce your use of the phrase "drawn to". You are NOT inexplicably and mystically "drawn to" every little thing that interests you. Seriously. If nothing else, the phrase just gets used FAR TOO MUCH. I should NOT be visiting a forum and finding fifty threads with questions like "What element are you drawn to?" "What tarot card are you drawn to?" "What books are you drawn to?" "What color clothing are you drawn to?" Find some other way to express the sentiment.
Sincerely,
Fuego

Date: 2007-11-24 06:27 am (UTC)Keeping in mind that I view the elements as forces of nature, and not so much in the popularly thought of "elemental energies" way...I do feel very deep, strong connections to both fire and water, though fire is, of course, the more obvious.
What Tarot card do you identify with?
Sometimes the moon, the star, sometimes the high priestess. Occasionally the world or wheel of fortune, frequently the fool.
Right now, probably some combination of the tower and hanged man.
What books pique your interest?
'Tis a very long list....but to keep it manageable:
Almost anything on Hellenic mythology and religion and many books on other mythologies and religions. Architecture, photography, art/art history though usually not "general" history. Quantum physics- as written for the lay person as in the writing of Brian Greene. Anything by Robert Heinlein, Jack Kerouac, or Gabriel Garcia-Marquez. Douglas Adams, Jacqueline Carey
What color clothing do you feel suits your spirit?
Never really thought about it, though a large percentage of clothing I own is red, orange or dark pink. Maybe that? I dunno. I just pick stuff because I like the way it looks on me.
