Just Hello!




Hi Friends,


Well believe it or not it is almost the end of the year. 2008 just flew by and I think a lot of you would agree it has been a difficult year in so many different ways. The economy, rising unemployment, bad storms in the mid-west and Texas, fires in California and the on-going war in Iraq. Yet there is still good that rises from these adversities. People still learn the value of family and friendships and what is really important. Although I am not in need, struggling a bit of course, but who isn't, I am still pulling back on spending, being way less extravagant and enjoying the outdoors again and becoming closer to nature as I explore the beauty all around me through my photography and long walks and drives. There is something beautiful to be found in even a fallen leaf or the frost on a flower in late autumn. I try to bring that beauty to life and share with my friends and subscribers through my photography and art videos on my You Tube channel ginnykaren.


As the year draws to a close and winter sets in, I plan to bring you videos and photos of my art work that I plan to work on during this time. My goal is that by the Spring I willl have enough creations made to perhaps take a small space at the local outdoor flea market. Hopefully my work will sell and I can expand on this venture. (In addition to my regular job in the NYC fashion industry of course which I love.)


I hope everyone will take the time to look around and appreciate a beautiful sunrise or sunset,


take a walk in the great outdoors or just sit for a minute and take it all in and let the cares of this hectic life slip away for a moment or two.


With many warm wishes for you all!


Love & Hugs,

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.
