The Empress,The Empress and The Emperor Cards - Arcana Major III and IIII Articles Arcana Major III The Empress is the second female character of the Tarot. The Impress is sitting on a throne and she is crowned.The Empress seems to be sure of herself, calm, intelligent, worthy.This major arcana represents the capacity, the Empress clothing is luxurious and invaluable.This arcana is extremely positive.Basic sinificance:In the right position the Empress represents the intelligence, dignity, the authority, the mother, the wife, the right decisions.In the reversed position, this arcana represents the enemies, sterility, despotism, dispute.Example:A woman wants to know if her new sentimental relation will finish by a happy-end.We will draw four cards: on the left the Magician, on the right the Empress, at the top we draw the Star and at the bottom is the Moon.The Magician arcana confirms an sentimental relation but the Empress announces that the man is MARRIED (in fact, the Empress represents this man's wife); the Star represents our consulting person and her hopes but the Moon announces lots of difficulties.In synthesis (addition of the four cards: 39 = 3+9 = 12) the Hanged Manconfirms that if our consulting person does not break up with this man, she must expect a difficult relation.Explanation of Questions play:We use four cards in this play.The card we put on the left represents the positive aspects of the question.The card on the right represents the negative aspects of the question.The card on the top represents the consultant person and his/her question (emotions, feelings, state of mind).The card at the bottom is the answer.The synthesis is made as follows and must correspond to a major arcana: addition of the number of each cards is in our example the Magician: 1 + theEmpress: 4 + the Star 17 + the Moon: 18 = 39.As there is no any major arcana carrying number 39, we add 3 + 9 and it gives us a total of 12; which is the arcana n° 12, the Hanged Man.This play is a mix of the Tarot and Numerology and is extremely reliable.The Emperor, Arcana Major IIIIThis card is represented by a man who reached the maturity and is sitting on a throne. He is invested by a great power, beside his throne, we see a gold shield where an eagle is painted; which is the crowned bird.The stature of the emperor means that he is never afraid.This tarot card represents a triumphing character.Basic significance:In the right position The Emperor card represents safety, authority, important and powerful characters, prosperity.In a reversed position, The Emperor card represents ineffectiveness, the meanness, brutality...Our consulting person asks to us whether, her husband wishing to break up their marriage, will change his opinion.We pull four Tarot cards: on the left The Lovers, on the right The Emperor, at the top The Moon and at the bottom The Chariot.Interpretation:The Lovers card represents the feelings which her husband preserves for her; The Emperor in a negative position means that her husband will remain on his positions, he refuses to look behind him and looks only at the future; The Moon card represents the consulting person and her anguishes; The Chariot says to us that her husband will leave her and never come back.The synthesis represents the Justice card (6 + 4 + 18 + 7 = 35 - 3 + 5 = 8); which, in this case, corresponds to the legal steps to divorce.
