The Empress
Introduction: The Empress is an archetype of feminine
power; she is watery, hard to fathom, mysterious, fertile, and sexual.
She augurs a need for us to be in touch with our feminine side, to
listen to our intuition, and to give priority to our emotions an
passions. She can signify coming abundance.
General: People are going to be more attracted to
you than usual (in every sense) and you are likely to find people on
your doorstep, wanting your advice/your shoulder to cry on. This will be
beneficial to you because you are now going to be able to see yourself
more in the way that others see you - as someone with wisdom, and a lot
to offer. So share your hard-won perspectives on life, know that your
wisdom and caring is valuable.
Work: Things should be going very well for you.
People will be inspired by your ideas, your passions, and your way of
doing things. Let your ‘inner voice' guide you in how you operate. The
empress directs us to follow our bliss, and that the rest will follow.
Love: This is a potent time for love, you may find
that men and women alike are suddenly finding you far more attractive
(both in terms of friendship and romance,) and you will want to be
careful with how you use this power, as it's very potent. If you are
single, this is a time when love - true love - could very well come your
way. Committed relationships often become sweeter, deeper, and truer
under this influence.
Finances: This card shows an excellent time to make
investments, follow your instincts about them. Money should be flowing
very well. Be sure to "keep the flow going" by putting back out a little
of what you have, to a person or cause that is important to you. Share
your abundance.
Health: If you're trying to get pregnant; this is an
excellent sign that this may be forthcoming. If you're not ready to be a
parent and pregnancy is a possibility for you, this is a time when you
want to be triply careful. If you're having health issues of any kind,
ponder them from a different point of view; what is your body trying to
tell you? Consider adding some sort of naturopathic or homeopathic
approach to your health regime.
Spirituality: Your intuition may well be trying to
send you a message during this time also. It will be important to listen
closely to it now and if that requires that you make time alone, even
though there are others that need you, then making time alone needs to
be a priority. Heed any messages or warnings that seem to come to you
now through your "inner voice."
