The Emperor is one of the special Tarot cards - it is ruled by Aries and is also known as Son of the Morning and Chief among the Mighty.
He represents leadership, the urge to action and responsibility. He unifies wisdom and mastery.
This is a powerful card and it comes along to indicate that it is time for you to take charge, to establish yourself, whether it is via the concretisation of a creative idea, the making of a business or some other tangible structure.
It is time to come into your power, to own it.
If you have been holding off taking the reins in your professional life, then The Emperor arrives to give you the needed impetus to make needed decisions, believe in your power to make needed changes and create long lasting results.
As a person, The Emperor represents someone in authority, a man who has wealth and presence. He is uncompromising and knows exactly what he wants and has no qualms about going out and getting it. Â If he turns up in this way he will appear to have power over you.
Much better to take the energy embodied in this card and own the power and charisma yourself, else you will be at the whim of someone with perhaps a very different agenda.
In which parts of your life do you need to demonstrate assertiveness, independence, courage and originality? Meditate on the power of this card to connect with the parts of yourself that need to drive your own life forward and achieve.
If you do not relate to this card easily, then likely you will have issues with authority figures, and possibly issues with the father that this card brings you opportunity to resolve.
What elements of masculine energy can you appreciate in your life now - what are the positive aspects of the masculine energy can you integrate. Protectiveness, creativity, love of freedom, independence, discipline and authenticity are all qualities to contemplate to connect with the energy of The Emperor.
Where in your life do you need to take your power back?
