The Empress
- realization of personal projects
- comfort
- St. Adelaide of Italy
- Joan I of Navarre
- unintended repercussions of plans coming to fruition
- external forces at play
- relevance of numbers 3 and 6
The Empress Reversed
- bareness or difficulties conceiving / birthing
- must be resourceful to succeed
- missing earth element
I tend to view the Empress more as a figure of empowerment, and in reverse, a woman disempowered. I do not really take the earth association into account.
