Let me tell you a little bit about me.....

Born July 9th which makes me a Cancer 69 If you have ever read anything about Cancer personalities it is me to a tee. I even have some of the bad traits. I was raised Roman Catholic even went to a Catholic school, in England. I always have been a little different than everyone else and was never "part" of the crowd, just danced to the beat of my own drum. My imagination was always quite vivid my dreams too. I have things called premonition dreams they are rare & far between but, basically I dream the dream and one will play out & as it does I remember it has happened almost like Déjà vu I'll recall parts of my dreams unfolding and when I've tried to change the out come, it has never worked. I do remember how I started with spells, I desperately liked a boy in my class (I was in 5th grade) I would make these pieces of paper with his name & imagine he was my boyfriend...It took me until 6th grade before he finally asked me to be his girlfriend, it didn't last long. Of course this was many many moons ago but, my first time I ever tried something other than praying. I went through a lot of flip flopping as a child trying to figure out my own way what I believed and what I was interested in. As I hit my teens I was given my first Tarot card deck which I still have. I love to read Tarot it is such a great guide for life in general and for Spell casting. As I got older I read more, I learned about Wicca and as I got into my twenties I became curious about Voodoo and the Voodoun religion. I learned about the Loas and offerings....It felt to me like I had finally found my place where I could believe and no longer question like I did when I was Roman Catholic. I met a lady who now is "My Sister" her name is Solitaire she taught me so much and opened my eyes. Together we were unstoppable, with my knowledge of Wicca, Tarot & having sort of my 6th sense and her knowledge of Voodoo we were a perfect mixture and 13yrs later we still are. My name is Salubrious Surrey, I am a Poet, a writer, a Mother, a lover, a sister and I practice Voodoo & Wiccan Magic. I am 100% dedicated to my beliefs and I am as real as they come.

What's your sign?

Curious about who you are.

69 Cancer 69

The Cancer woman has a strong maternal instinct and the desire to make her home a place of domestic bliss. They have great loyalty to family members and close ties to their mothers. They also have a large circle of friends and associates. The typical Cancer woman looks beyond her career or home-centered activities to find interests through which she can contribute to others.
The Cancer personality traits of kindheartedness, dependability, and sympathy. They have a natural tendency to take care of the people around them.
Due to this, they often gain the reputation of the "motherly" from the people closest to them. They usually feel very much in alignment in the role of the parent regardless of whether or not they actually are.
Indeed, their role as actual parents is where these people typically shine. They have the natural patience and concern for their little ones that makes them outstanding parents.
Cancer people have an incredible intuition and usually rely deeply upon this natural instinct to guide them through their lives. The majority of the time their intuition is very accurate.
Cancer's are also excellent at listening to others and really hearing what's not being said as well. In addition, their warm and care demeanor makes them excellent counselors either privately or professionally.
Cancer in any relationship is nurturing and caring, but with deep mood swings and a sharp tongue when provoked. Cancer seeks out others who are stable and loyal, and who want to focus on home and family. The Cancer individual will be cautious with money and will likely have some cash stashed away for a rainy day. She will also be a collector of something , maybe antiques because of his emotional ties to the past, but possibly something such as coins or model cars or shot glasses. Your Cancer friend will help you if you are in need, but will almost always wait until the last minute to do so, after waiting for you to exhaust all other possibilities. Just remember, the by-words for Cancer are "I feel," so be careful to emit good vibes around your Cancerian friend and you will be richly rewarded!
The emotions of a Cancer run deep as they are very sensitive people and can be hurt easily. They do not care for cruelty or harsh words unless they are the ones saying them in retaliation. They can get quite stinging with words of they have been hurt and are known to be quite revengeful. It's best to just leave them be in their Crabby moods until the tide changes, or there will be a price to pay.

A person born under the sign of Cancer has one of the finest memories in the Zodiac. A Cancer rarely forgets anything and remembers all of the details good and bad. They are like the elephant that never forgets. You can find them on the beach and they love taking pictures. It is a rare Cancer that doesn't love the art of photography. They are usually history buffs as well and seem to remember even the smallest details. When they are in the mood, they are great story tellers about anything historical, whether it is world history or their own adventures - and there are plenty of those.
Cancerians can be quite secretive and are able to keep yours, as well. You will not be able to keep anything hidden from their curious and intuitive minds. Their intuition is extremely high and they can pick up things about you that you know you never told them. They just seem to "know" things. If you are in a blue mood they will just "know" why. Just don't ever lie to them as they can detect it a mile away. Cancer people also have some very interesting and prophetic dreams that really do come true.

    I have written lots of poetry. I have written some poetry for others - mostly family members.

Sharing some of my poetry & writings with you!

Written by Salubrious Surrey

ll these crazy thoughts are barreling through my confusion, every memory an illusion.

In the pit of my stomach a hold is evident & I am ashamed.

Life came from our union & the reality is, this wasn't what I dreamed.

Through it all waited a patient man, full of charisma and charm, to protect me from harm.

Love in his eyes, doesn't spit out lies.

My fantasy of perfection arrived and yet in the back of my mind plays an old familiar theme of betrayl & heartache that only time can heal. The past though real is behind me and only a warm heart to guide me, breaking each fall with his soft place to land. Not walking in front but, hand in hand.

I, no longer lost or in fear of my future the plan laid before me.

I embrace with pleasure & move forward with guidance from pure love.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

LONELINESS

Loneliness, I never knew how it truly felt.

The echo of voices and sounds of love, now distant. Aching to feel a breath in my ear, a soft kiss upon my lips.

Now, as I lay sleeping, I dream alone.

I tell myself, I'm not good enough. I say to me "your fat!...this is why you feel loneliness so, you will have to change all that."

I laugh with my friends and play with my son but, have yet to find that certain one.

No one says my name, no one worries if I'm okay, no one shops and thinks of me. I'm a lone solider marching to a beat of loneliness and heart ache.

No one to wrestle with, no one to debate, no one to put my feet on after a hard day, no one to give a damn what I say. Like I'm in prison inside my own invisible walls.

My mundane and pathetic existence spent worrying about the little things.

No plan for a future with my soul mate, just my son and I riding this lonely train, no heart to tame, this aching pain.

I will close my eyes one night and cease to rise with the sunlight dancing on my cheek. I will die alone for it's loneliness I seek.

I never hated anyone as much as I hate myself.

To loath me, is to be me. I disgust myself looking at that face, I feel ugly because I am ugly. I am pathetic....

I can't accomplish anything, I come close then, fail as expected. I'm no liar, I'm no cheat. I am a pretender. I pretend to give a F*** about myself, I pretend to be proud of me.

I am unhappy..........

I embrace the love others give me, because I need it to fill the emptiness inside of me. I wish I could wake up normal, to love myself the way I am but, that's only in my dreams where I am beautiful. How I ache to dream forever.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Invigorated, sweaty, heart pounding, muscles burning. I feel the fire inside me steadily burning the fuel of life-taste of success in my mouth. I no longer ache for the perfect body alone, I ache for a healthy body, a clean mind and a drive that can never be stopped.

My gloves are on, I picture the me I hate the one that stands in the way of reaching my goals and I pound the bag imagining pain, fear, hurt,tears smashed with every hit destroyed by each kick! Sweat pouring from my face my chest heaving- I feel my body stronger, powerful, unmovable. I feel alive.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Short Poem

She lives to harm, I live to love, she cries for herself I cry for broken souls, she hurts with words, I heal with poetry...born innocent and blossom to perfection...that is my hope for mankind, but, some have severely failed that goal. Sadness in darkness.....I sleep with one eye open.....

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Alopecia Universalis

I have Alopecia Universalis............

Me beneth it all.....

, I found out when I was 10yrs old I had Alopecia. I had hair for a long time due to the fact I used to receive Steroid shots into my scalp. However, the side effect was I had huge indention in my skull like it was making the skull deteriorate. Once I was in my later teens it became harder to control and finally after I turned 23yrs old my hair fell out in clumps, body hair...as well. After the birth of my son I literally had no hair left. So, I shaved the rest off. It was awful to see, I felt like I was less of a woman because of it.

It took me about a year to be comfortable enough to buy a wig...I cried. I knew I wasn't sick, I didn't have cancer, I wasn't in pain but, I just felt "different" It has been 22yrs now and I realize that this is something I can handle. It was a test for me, one that taught me not to be superficial, to realize the outside is just a shell the inside is the most important. So, you may see my hair change periodically but, this is me....this is who I am beneath the front that so many of us put up to be protected. Salubrious....lover...friend and woman who sees more than what most notice. I see your heart, soul, passion....not just your shell.

What is Alopecia Universalis?
Alopecia universalis is an uncommon form of alopecia areata. Alopecia areata is hair loss of unknown cause, characterized by round patches of complete baldness. Alopecia universalis, which presents itself as the loss of hair over the entire scalp and body, is an autoimmune disease, in which the immune system mistakenly attacks the hair follicles. While there is neither a cure for alopecia areata nor drugs approved for its treatment, some people find that medications approved for other purposes can help hair grow back, at least temporarily.Since the hair follicles of individuals with alopecia universalis remain alive, hair regrowth may occur even without treatment and even after many years.

Do you know someone with Alopecia or do you have it yourself?

Please share your story...

Vodoun Religion

Papa Legba

Out of all the Lwas I have the most personal relationship with Papa Legba. Besides honoring him & showing him the utmost of respect I have a very special bond with him. He is the Lwa I turn to through all of my issues or tears. He sees all I've been through and listens. He always has such wise advice and never steers me wrong. Most Voodoo practitioners do create a close bond with certain Lwas he is the one I'm most drawn to.

Alot of personality

Yes, that is me!

I love to see people happy, I look at the bright side of most things these days. I've been through a lot of hurt, betrayal, sadness and can understand on a personal level most peoples situations and points of view. I'm not one to ever try to hurt feelings or be mean in anyway but, I am very protective of all those I hold dear. I consider some of our clients personal friends and am always here to lend an ear. Solitaire & I make an amazing match because we mesh so well and have both been through the ringer. It is rewarding to have a company (The Spellbinding Sisters) that fulfills me so much because not only are we able to help people through hard times but, we are living our lives focused on the Lwas and our religion. You can't beat that!

Love this song and this artist!

    I don't really have a lens about myself - but the first lens I created was about my backyard paradise that I loved - but had to leave.

My lastest addition

Mr.Bigguns

I adopted him about 6 months ago. He is just a sweet ball of fur. I am an animal lover to the extreme. If I had my way I'd own a giant ranch with Horses, Cats, dogs, Goats, pigs, Cows you get the picture. I am 100% for adopting rescues. Please before you purchase a pet at a local pet shop consider adopting from a kill shelter first. Save a life.

    Great lens! It was really nice to meet you! I am also a Cancer - June 25th. And like you - the Cancer personality profile fits me to a tee! I also have very vivid dreams, and some have been premonitory. I usually awake from those dreams in a drenching sweat and a racing heartbeat.

    This lens is enjoyable to read and fascinating to hear your stories and details about Cancer star sign people. Your modules need rearranging so that the comment box is at the bottom of the page and the TOC is at the top. You might also break your text with some line spaces between paragraphs and some more paragraphs in the intro module. That could, in fact, be broken into a couple of text modules instead of a big burst of info at the beginning. These things will make your lens a lot more enjoyable. Hugs
