I am the emperor!
What does this mean exactly? First, I can tell you I have new clothes for sure! But really, what does the emperor, when this card comes up, mean in our lives?
When I see the tough, shoulders back, tall neck, and strong posture visual in this card, I feel stable and responsible. I feel I’m in a position of power, that I’m being called to lead, to teach, to observe, or to just be still before I move.
The passion and drive delivered by the visual of the rams—the representatives of courageous Mars and the warrior Aries, offers me the permission to follow my life purpose with drive, and enthusiasm, I can literally feel the rush of energy from my crown chakra flowing down like an avalanche, a buzzing of passionate and purposeful energy. This rush is then met with my back gently resting upon stone, reminding me to build an enduring structure, a structure built upon fathering principles of stability, foundation, and wisdom. This card reminds me that I hold my life in one hand while at the same time indiscriminately viewing the world in the other, and that I am protected through it all, (there’s no chink in this armor). And that this protection comes from my innermost self, a flowing stream of intuition wonderfully envisioned in the right place at the right time. It tells me that my second sight will always be a guiding source of inspiration, that I am safe with my emotions, and that there is always hope, even when I can’t even begin to see it.
I have come a long way from where I used to be. Impulsive, destructible, allowing my trauma to devour everything in my path, and within my spirit. I no longer live there. A wrecking ball powered by the divine has intervened and I was broken down into a million pieces and I get to, one day at a time, with the instruction of the Most High and with the direction and protection of my ancestors, I get to finally choose how to mend these pieces, lining them with gold. I carry “my” life in “my” hands today. I get to live in my best divine feminine representation of myself today. And I get to learn from the dismantling of a false configuration and carry in my heart the reorganization of my beautiful pieces, finally seeing, feeling, and believing them as they truly are, whole, strong, infinite, and indestructible.
I Am the Emperor.
