1)Why are you passionate and in what ways?
2)Where does your power lie?
3)What do you gain from marriage spiritually?
4)Look in the mirror. How would you equate your facial features with your positive personality traits?
5)What caused your last death-wish?
1) I'm passionate about things mostly because it's in my deepest nature to be. For the things that I'm most passionate about - learning, knowledge, freedom, my friends and beloveds - in many ways it's as if the simple fact of my caring about them opens up a connection to some vast ocean somewhere, as if the passion is of me and moves through me, but I'm not the original source of it. It gets expressed in myriad ways - from my choice of career and my staying even in the face of my current difficulties there, through just being there for people and trying to hear them into themselves, through cooking for people, to sex. Mostly it's about being Water, for me - it's my core element, and its watchword is "I Care."
2) In my passion. If I Care enough about something, I can Change the world for it. The question is how much time it takes.
Also in my matron and patron god/dess/e/s and their Caring for me, but I suspect you don't want to hear about that.
3) Actually, that's one of the very few areas that my marriage doesn't impact very much. The Spouse is third-eye-blind, so a lot of the pranic give-and-take that I'd always associated with sex and intimacy before him is largely missing. However, it does give me a way to define who I am and who I'm not, spiritually, and how my spiritual self (and my religious self, for that matter) can/must flex to accommodate someone who is so different from me in that regard. He's made me define my boundaries in a way that I don't think it would have occurred to me to do otherwise, which is sort of amusing, since the Spouse has boundary issues (of a slightly different sort) himself.
4) Glasses => Intelligence. Maybe naturally red lips => sensuality. That's really about it. I don't find much to appreciate in my facial features most of the time.
5) The huge amount of pain I and my caring for someone else put the Spouse through last summer. (Not that it was entirely my responsibility. All three of us fucked that up rather severely. But I certainly started it.)
