I've often wondered why I, an Aries, has always been attrated to water when I am a fire sign. This gives me some insight. I've always wanted to be cremated & have my ashes scattered in the Pacific because I believe that I'll be able to swim in the after life. I love being in water & I love the full moon. I could stare at the moon all night long.

@SpankRamen2 I know the feeling. I am a Capricorn, an earth sign, but I have been drawn to the sea my entire life. It's the only place where I feel whole, if you know what I mean. I went to the beach for a week recently, and tried to spend a lot of time talking to and communing with Yemaya. I want to live there, and then I want to spend my afterlife there. The ocean is heaven to me. Thanks for posting!

That's exactly how I've felt my entire life! Blue (my fave) is the color of cleanliness & that water is heaven (or at least the gateway to it). My brothers got to have a blue bedroom (because they're boys after all) & I used to ALWAYS spend time in their room when they were away. I always felt at ease being surrounded by the blue walls.

@SpankRamen2 We must've been separated at birth. When I was about fourteen, my mom let me repaint my bedroom. I ended up making my room into a kind of mini-ship. I had blue everywhere, a ship in a bottle, I put up a nautical border around the walls, I had shells all over. I just had to have my bedroom remind me of the sea. I think we must have had some past lives on the water. Are you familiar with the singer Eliza Carthy?

@rivermoonrise First of all, i love your channel, and your videos...they are so Beautiful, and You have such a beautiful spirit. Capricorn is actually a Sea-Goat!! Capricorn is the Goat associated with the Sea!!

Earth signs are so beautiful and the Earth and Water enhances each other so beautifully...they create life together, my Daughter is a Capricorn as well. She can be tough and sarcastic though, Lol!!! but at heart, she's a Beauty like all Capricorns. They are mystical...

@SpankRamen2 Hi SpankRamen2...do you know what your Rising Sign is? Maybe Your Rising or Moon Sign is in the House of a Water sign or is a Water Sign itself? What day of the month was you born...is it the 7th, 16th, or the 25th? 7 is the number of The Lord, The number of Yemaya and is associated with the element of Water. Your Birth number holds the meaning of your personality and colors you.
