Major Arcana III : The EmpressEvery 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 Empress as a starting point for your own personal exploration of the Tarot.
Reading The CardThe Empress is a maternal symbol. She is the mother figure who loves, nurtures and protects.She will protect you, she will always be there when you are in trouble. When you fall over and graze your knee, the Empress will kiss it better. Yet she is not a weak figure. Her compassion is strength. If her children are threatened she will stop at nothing to protect them. If well aspected in a Tarot spread, the Empress can symbolise security, protection and unconditional love. If badly aspected it can represent over-protectiveness, fear of risk taking and refusal to face the real world. The Empress has powerful apron strings.
