The EmperorEvery Tarot deck has its own images and symbolism which must then be filtered through the psyche of the reader and the context of the question. However for the benefit of beginners, below are some possible interpretations and meanings of The Emperor as a starting point for your own personal exploration of the Tarot.
Reading The CardThe Emperor represents power. There is nothing subtle about this Tarot card.The Magician has power through intellect; the High Priestess has power through knowledge; the Empress has power through love. The Emperor has power through power. He is in control, he is forceful and ambitious. Nothing will stop him. He is a natural leader, having either been born to the role or having disposed of all those who stood in his way. If well aspected in a Tarot spread this card can indicate success. It represents obstacles overcome, goals reached and ambition fulfilled. If badly aspected it can indicate either weakness or an abuse of power. The Emperor has power - can he avoid corruption?
