Description:

This is a chance for everyone to embrace their inner Goddess. You will have ONE partner, to whom you must send:

1) A Goddess Figure (statue, print, etc.) either handmade or store bought.

2) A piece of jewelry that's inexpensive, but exotic/Goddess-like.

3) A sample-bottle of perfume (available for free at most cosmetic counters)

4) One other "adornment" item (cosmetic, jewelry, bindi, etc.)

5) One other Goddess item of your choice

The idea behind this swap is to celebrate the Goddess inside every woman. Don't be cheap or send tacky/used things. Select your items with the goal of making your partner feel like a Goddess.

Everyone is welcome to this swap....newbies, prove yourselves!

this is a beautiful swap, i would like to be sure of a few things, otherwise i will drop out........are all swappers welcome? i do not want to swap with people who have ratings of less than 4 or a history of no sends. i am happy to swap with newbies allthough i think they should have full profiles. also, when you say goddess figure, would an atc be ok? and one last thing, will the items we send be our selection as senders or will i need to fuffil my partners requests? (i hope the first option will be the matter of selection,) i.e say someone is of another faith, or only prefers goddess images of the "_____" faith-era, will i be expected to shop/make only those items.......or can we as senders decide which images we will send. i would like to send a variety to my partner.

well enough said on my part, LOL thanks for listening,grin i look forward to being in this swap:)

Noel,

In keeping with the spirit of the swap (ie: everyone is a Goddess) I have not put a rating requirement on this swap. Usually I do, so that was a deliberate choice on my part. As of right now, we don't have anyone signed up with rating of 4.0 or lower, so you can rest easy. But, if you don't want to participate, that's fine too.

YES, everything is senders-choice.

As far as the Goddess figure goes, I was aiming for something more substantial (like the print or statue ideas listed in the description) but the #5 requirement could easily be an ATC.

Hope this explains everything satisfactorily. Looking forward to swapping with everyone!

I love the goddess idea...Thanks My personal goddess is Yemaya, but I also adore Oshun and any of the virgins. I would prefer to send whatever the person likes that way I get to learn about her goddess as well, is that Ok for us to post who our personal goddess is? and can we send flat dolls for the goddess figure. That way it is made, and sometimes statues can be pricey and or hard to find. Or a painting??

user6841 04/14/2007 #

Mariah,

Flat dolls are fine, as long as they are of decent size and quality. Anyone who wants to post their personal Goddess may, but keep in mind, everything is senders choice.

You talk about the Orisha's...are you an Aborisha or Santera? Or are you an interested non-practitioner?

user6532 04/15/2007 #

Peace Witch...I follow IFA, I am an Aborisha. I am Yemanja's child, and also Oshuns. Mariah

~I do not have a chosen or favorite goddess, so my partner is free to bless me with one whom she see's fit!

goddess bless, and thank you!
