What do you love? What's your passion? I have many! Genealogy, Astrology, Yoga, Meditation, Spirituality and Personal Growth, Personality Typology, Writing, Singing and Dancing are some of the things I love best, after my family and friends.

I've made my living in one or another of these areas from time to time, but I've never had a "proper" career because I've been busy rearing kids for much of my life. Twice married, I have five children altogether (three of my own and two foster sons) and seven grandchildren!

This is an old photo, but it's my favourite one of all the kids together.

The KidsYou can tell this photo is a few years old:
All except Scott now have children of their own!
Born Carol Mary Flavell in Manchester, England in 1943, to Yorkshire and Staffordshire parents, I came to live in Australia when I was eight. My family has itchy feet, I most of all - I've lived in New Zealand, Scotland and the USA as well as England and Oz., often living and working in spiritual communities or involved in the local performing arts scene. I'm happy to be here in Perth, Western Australia, though - it's a great little city. Two of my sisters live in South Australia and one in England, and my children are scattered from Perth to the Gold Coast, so most of them I don't see very often.

Here are some my other interests apart from Genealogy.

No, I can't do this pose! But when I practise Yoga, I feel brighter and fitter, my concentration improves, and I have heaps more energy. Unfortunately, I am incredibly lazy and don't practise very often, so I hope you'll do as I say, not as I do!Have you ever looked at the connection beween Genealogy and Astrology? I've seen thousands of charts over the years, and I'm convinced that we inherit our horoscopes! An interest in Astrology and related subjects since childhood led me to make my living from them for several years. These days I only do reports for friends, and you must be a friend, cos you're reading this, right? As this is a free site I can't advertise, but feel free to email me for more information.

Comparative Religion

This was my major in College (Edith Cowan University, Perth) and it's another subject I find endlessly fascinating. My special study is the connection between personality type and religious preference, which ties in nicely with my lifelong interests in psychology and personal growth. I believe the spiritual journey encompasses body and mind together which happens best for me when I'm meditating and practising Yoga regularly, and undertaking some kind of counselling or therapy as well. However, as I've pointed out, I'm lazy!

There just isn't room to talk about Aromatherapy, Folk Dance, Meditation and the half-finished sci-fi novel in my computer!
