The Emporer

Hello...Today's card is The Emporer.

The Emporer represents someone in authority, such as a boss, father figure etc.
This is a person who has the ability to direct, control and make decisions.
Sometimes this can come up to indicate a time in our lives where we have reached rulership and authority over others or simply it can mean an individual who is emotionally mature, responsible and in control. So a disciplined individual.
The Emporer is the example of someone who shows leadership qualities and is a successful manager.
The Emporer knows how to get things done, he is organized and see's his goal through to the end, so this can show up to mean that what we have been striving toward or planning either has manifested or will manifest..
A positve card for the outward result of a seekers goal or plans.
I sometimes see this card come up to represent someone in law enforcement or the military.

In Reverse...we see that goals and plans do not come to pass.
This is a person who lacks the ability to take charge or to plan. It can also indicate a man who has issues with authority. Sometimes it's a man unable to cope with family responsibilities. Escapist tendancies such as alcohol and other dependancies are some possibilities also with this card.
A venture or project will not flourish as had hoped likley due to disorganization and lack of planning.
