About Me

Name: Roswila

Location: Goleta, California, United States

BRIEF BIO: Retired, I glory in the time to indulge in a poetry & dream blog (ROSWILA'S DREAM & POETRY REALM), two Tarot blogs (ROSWILA'S TAROT GALLERY & JOURNAL and ROSWILA'S TAIGA TAROT), and my Yahoo dreamku group (DREAMJIN). I believe each Deity (of any religion) is just one face of the many-facted Great Mystery. For me, it's how one acts, how one lives out one's life that matters, not the specifics of one's belief -- or non-belief for that matter (one of the most moral people I have known is an atheist). My own favorite Deities are Ganesh, Hecate, Kuan Yin, and Lakshmi. In addition to being an opinionated old lady :-D, I am also an intuitive and empathic, right-brain dominant introvert, with mild mediumistic tendencies.

"Ganesh dances joyfully, each step out of now into now again; each footprint filling to overflowing with kindness. Remover of Obstacles, clear me out of my own way; teach me how to dance lightly through life, how to spill over with love."
Prayer by Roswila
