My Mystic Gemstone

You Scored as Ruby

Ruby, resembling love, wealth, wisdom and purity. Ruby-types tend to think with their heart and not their heads, sometimes resulting in wild desicions, but constantly following love and romance. Ruby-types also tend to have a fair judgement and sweet and good feelings for many things. <p> <a href="http://www.freewebs.com/angeldust_seeall/GemStone.html"> See All Results/Comment </a> <p>

You Scored as The Ivy

In Celtic astrology, you're Ivy (not everything on the zodiac is a tree). The animal symbol that accompanies this plant is the butterfly. The ancient Druids say Ivy people are good-natured, empathetic, optimistic, and social and may have magnetic personalities. However, Ivies may be prone to indecision, disappointment, restlessness or a fear of offending others.

Tarot Card Identity

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.
