The Emperor IV
The Emperor represents authority, a father figure, power, leadership, building, protection, ambition, order, organization and confidence. He is usually depicted as a stately looking older man on a throne. When you get the Emperor, it indicates a need to set things in order, to organize and plan how
to meet your goals. It could be a time when your ambitions are driving you or are being felt more keenly than usual. You are in a position to take charge and guide things on their proper course. The planet associated with the Emperor is Aries (action, assertion, courage), the color red, the musical note C.
The Empress gives birth to forms and ideas. The Emperor shapes and chooses. Thoughts of Empress sing around the Emperor like wind around a great stone. Wind shapes stone and stone gives voice to wind. A soft and slender hand is gently held by a rough and battered hand.
Look at the picture of the Emperor. Let your eyes see the river and the mountain. Feel a wind blowing coldly about you. It refreshes, the waking wind of the morning. Close your eyes. Imagine yourself on a hike in the high mountains. Sit upon a rock in a windy place. The air stirs your hair. It feels cool and good. In your right hand is a wooden staff -- shining golden in the sunlight. In your left hand is a juicy red apple -- it will take away your thirst with a sweet, cool crunch.

In your wanderings you have found a cave. It is a place of cool shadows. A clear stream runs out of it. There is room to pass into the cave beside the water. You enter. Walk far into the cave beside the water. You have reached a grotto where ripples of light dance over the walls in blue, green and silver. Rest there in a patch of Sunlight. Sunlight? Look up to see a golden radiance streaming down from an opening in the grey rock that covers the grotto. If you wish, climb out of the cave through the window of light.
if you guys wish try the above meditation or the dream study with the card.
I see the emperor as opportunity as well, perhaps a time where we are powerful in where we stand.
our ground lay firm as we build new platforms in buisness or work related area's of our lives.
This can be a new job or even a new career in something we will gain much recognition for our skills.
