+ Voluptuous

(sensual, swarthy, curvaceous, zaftig)

1. Whatever you see right now looks particularly yummy. Voluptuous! Get comfy and snuggle in.
2. There is no finer beauty than that which radiates from sensuality and animal magnetism.
3. Whenever one looks in the mirror, and can see beauty without vanity, then one becomes the light around which all things are illumined.  Radiate the beautiful nature inside you.
4. Sensual beauty flows whenever you love your body and care for it. Have the former and do the latter.
5. Radiate outward the beautiful nature that originates from within you. The only light of you comes from you. Shine.
6. Celebrate the soft, warm, and comfortable in your life. Luxuriate in those with full appreciation and without apology.
7. There is no greater physical beauty than that which comes from sensuality and animal magnetism. Revel in the attention, Purr, Growl, Croon, Meow or Howl from your body! Leave your head out of it.
8. Aphrodite knew that beauty was fleeting. What made her iconic was love. Bring love is kindness and joy to all who need it. Help others see the beauty in life today.

Card messages in the Shadow position.

– Sloppy

(Slovenly, morose, obese, disgruntle)

1. Taking things for granted leads one to become sloppy. The ensuing disorder is in no way attractive. Where are you being inattentive? Are you leaving a big mess to clean-up?
2. Beauty is said to be fleeting. This is true if you classify it in appearance only. If so, you are being shallow and missing much.
3. No amount of make-up covers the kind of disgust associated with unkempt sloppiness. Clean up your act!
4. Taking things for granted leads one to becoming slovenly. Where are you being inattentive? Are you leaving a big mess to clean up?
5. Someone has done a sloppy job. Making excuses for lack of tidiness or indifference to intentions is not to be indulged.

Quotation Illustrating this concept…

• Beauty is only skin deep, Ugly is to the bone! Beauty ALWAYS fades away, but UGLY…holds its own. Anonymous 

Relevance in the Michael Teaching

When it comes to sex appeal, there is no more tantalizing a body than the olive skinned, dark haired lusciousness of a Venusian Body Type. But it is the Warriors body built to be malleable and adaptable.

Famous Examples

Elizabeth Taylor, Pacific Islanders, Mae West (+lunar +jupiter), Tom Selleck (+saturn),

Cultural Significance

What is considered sexy and what is considered slovenly are often so close as to put a fine line between beauty and the beast. Indeed, one might say that this comparison serves to remind us how perception and distortion of it in the “eye of the beholder” shifts our attention with a simple belief.  Standards meant to inform or categorize easily morph into stereotypes and definitions of character.
