Opposites, friends and taste 🦋🌸

Opposites: Do you feel creative or destructive with your energy? Chaotic or orderly?

Definitely creative and orderly. What drives my life and my very soul is beauty, and, as I see it, it must be orderly in a way or the other, even within the chaos.

Friends: What animal, if any, accompanies your spirit?

I must say I never felt any animal accompanying me in the astral, but around here, butterflies are definitely a pattern.

Taste: What herb or spice best represents you?

I absolutely adore nutmeg, so I will go with that, or otherwise I might never stop wondering! I’m a seasoning herbs and spices junkie.

thank you friend! <3 

send me an ask!

Do you know if it's possible for estrogen to change your eye colour? I know it says there are ocular changes, but nothing concrete behind that. I've had dark brown eyes my entire life, and now there is a solid ring of green around the outside. There is a family precedent for a change during puberty, but it was only the woman. So I didn't know if the increased amounts of hormones in my system would trigger that at 20? Thank you!

I remember reading a study about a year or two ago that said estrogen can help you see more colors / more different shades of colors, so that could perhaps be it.

Other than that I don’t really have any information regarding this, sorry.

If any of my followers know anything about this, please feel free to add to this post.

asoundlikebells replied to your post “Forgive my excessive tags on this but..”

My hormones do the same thing to me. My only thought is: do something you love. I sit down and just read and lose myself in a really good book, typically one of my favourites. For you I would go to the sea. Let her take all of your worries and sorrows and all of your numbness. I'm sure that would make it better.

First things first, I love you because you know me so very very well and that just goes to show that you can make the best of friends on the internet. Secondly I have no idea why I didn’t think of going down to the beach. I live less than 5 blocks from the water. I am a dumby. Thank you Laurel. So much.

Winona, juniper, and fern for the plant ask :)

Yay! I’m so glad you asked me questions friend!

Winona: favorite quote?     You ask a hard question my friend. I genuinely can’t pick one, though I do have one of my favorites as a tattoo. It is from Black Sam Bellamy, the pirate captain of the Wydah. I have “and this my conscience tells me” on my right bicep. The full quote is very long, but the summary is him basically telling the navy that he is better because he is who he is because he wants to be.      A few others that I really really REALLY love are: 

Now you listen to me, James Hawkins. You got the makings of greatness in you, but you got to take the helm and chart your own course. Stick to it, no matter the squalls! And when the time comes you get the chance to really test the cut of your sails, and show what you’re made of... well, I hope I’m there, catching some of the light coming off you that day.                                         - John Silver from Disney’s Treasure Planet 

A ship is safe in harbor, but that’s not what ships are for.                                                                                      - William Shedd

Slow your breath; unclench your fist. Even in sleep you are ready for war.                                                                                  - The Golden Wing

Juniper: coffee or tea?     Normally I would say “either” or “both” but I had a crazy experience with coffee today, so I will probably lay off it for a while. I will stick with tea for the time being, it is probably better for me anyway. 

Fern: what makes you happiest?     What makes me happiest? That’s a tough question. I guess that really sort of depends on your definition of happy. I mean the ocean makes me happy. Music makes me happy. Sailing makes me happy. I really can’t say that one of these makes me “happiest” though. I think I have not yet attained the goal of “happiest.” I think it is still just out of my reach, and I am grasping at it messily with no regard for much else. Happiest. Who’s to say when we have reached it?

Wow sorry that last one got a little weird....

ASK ME THINGS?

[naryamirie]

Earth, Mars, Saturn for the planetary asks :)

earth: do you think the world has been kind to you?

The world has not, but the heavens surely have been.

---mars: when do you feel most alive?

when I’m in nature. all those trees around me, and that pure air, and the sound of water... it makes me think that maybe, one day, waking up won’t be with a sigh and a “here we go again”, every single morning.---

saturn: what would be your dream wedding ring?

Oh, my. Something really beautiful. Maybe a moon with roses on the sides - a beautiful, shining full moon made of some stone like opal or moonstone, with ruby roses on the sides - a beautiful shade of pale gold maybe.

I have a question for those of you lovely lashes who have had bottom surgery. I'm at the point where this can be a very real possibility and I just need some guidance on now to go about it. What steps I need to take and whatnot. And specifically how to choose a doctor. I'm located in the southeast so I assume there aren't many down here. Thanks!
