3 The Empress
Merry meet again….
I hope to find you all well,
Last week I presented to you my tale of the Fool's Journey of Enlightenment written within the world of the Divine Tarot. So today I am here to continue my tale and present to you the next card of the Major Arcana which is The Empress. The Fool's path continues as he transcends once again to the next stage of his journey by mastering the Mundane aspect of Life and of his new way of life within the Mandane world. He meets the Mother, The Empress and she opens up her heart to show him a whole other world within his existence, She introduces him to her Empire and shows him a very different way of life. Her ability to grow and build positively fascinate the Fool and she intrigues him with her purity of heart. She also grants him the greatest gift of all, the gift of fertility to bring new Life into his mundane world so that his Lineage may be carried forth throughout his generations to come. He has learnt to master the Spiritual and now he begins to master the Physical in order for him to find a balance between the two so that he can continue forward upon his Journey of Enlightenment.

The Fool's Journey of Enlightenment )0(
3 – The Empress Mother
Having learned about the material and spiritual worlds, the fool now meets the Mother. She is a competent woman, safe and secure who is building a future for herself and for her family. She brings nourishment and abundance. Her fertility gives us birth, healing and nurturing all things that she loves. She is the Empress, the Mother. She is life.
The Fool now learns to master his feminine qualities and the spiritual powers that come with institution. His logic now surpasses the Mundane realms as he begun to understand the language of the spiritual world. Here he learns to focus on his energy for further growth towards fertility of life, not only life of himself but also in what he set’s himself out to achieve. He has learnt to connect with his emotional self and opens his heart to allow The Mother Goddess to speak through him so that he may bring to others peace of mind and purpose of spirit. Her strength gives him a sense of courage so that he may trust in who is truly wishes to be and she shows him how to stand firmly upon the foundations he is building for the enlightened way of life. The Empress is the Mother of all things and her love teaches the Fool compassion for all life within his existence. His path has brought him to a place in which he finds a stronger connection to the mundane world around him and begins to see the beauty within that world. Here the Fool will learn to grow within that world and with his self-growth he will expand his intuitive knowledge and learn to trust himself enough to follower his own good advice.
Interpretation: The Empress signals good fortune, creativity, fertility and abundance. When she appears in a reading she tells you that you will prosper and that all your hard work will pay off. The Empress tells the seeker that they have it within them to succeed but they must learn to focus their energy in a more productive manner. Remember being the Lord or Lady of your empire takes a lot of hard work and dedication but also it takes a lot more focusing on doing what is right for others as well. Being the Empress means having to know how to put others before you and but also remain balanced in being the Leader as well. Perhaps people look to you for good advice and safety, which shows you have a strong head on your shoulders. Do not doubt in who you truly are and remember to remain faithful on the foundations you have set for yourself which make you the unshakable Empress. The Empress is all about new life and new hope that you can build a brighter future for yourself if you are dedicated in achieving your hearts desires. You have the capability and competency within you to rule your Kingdom and to Rule it well, just don’t forget who you are.
When The Empress appears in a reading it may also indicate marriage, pregnancy, or the birth of a new venture. You will be surrounded with the fruits of your labour and be able to relax in enjoyment of the finer things in life. The Empress tells us that we need to learn how to love and learn how to be loved in return.

Merry meet again Ray
Thank you again for your comment with regards to my post. It is always inspiring to hear from a fellow enlightened one and your kindness is very welcomed.
I agree with you in regards to most people only seek the help of the cards when they are in troubled water. Understandably most people do not have that connection with this Divine Tool like some and also the stereotype stigma that has been place upon the cards has also not made it very easy for folk like us who do indeed work with them. To hear and interpret these messages from the Divine world's beyond often gets look upon as unusual so most people shy away from it.
However it is a wonderful thing to have this connection and I am intrigued to hear that you also have the gift of Divination as well. To some having this gift is indeed daunting but I personally find that it has so much reward for those who do try to connect with them.
I also agree with you, It is a great honour be able to interpret the language of the Divine and should be treated as such. It is due to this sacred quest of enlightenment which has set me on this path to bring forth the message and meaning behind these cards to those who do wish to hear, or at least I can bring my interpretation to a broken heart or an unsettled soul and even a wary mind. I feel it is something the world should hear, which they have lost their connection to the spiritual realms and it saddens me to see that some people can get so completely lost within this mundane existence and so many feel utterly alone when they really shouldn't. There really is so much more out there than what meets the mundane eye and I feel sympathy for this world that is in so much chaos and cannot see it.
Although, I am quite passion about this subject so I could really go on and on,...which would probably leave you feeling rather tiresome hehe ?
But thank you for your best wishes. I really do appreciate it. I am taking a chance on "as you said a unique challenge" and I also hoping for the best. Here's to holding thumbs ?
I look forward to hearing from you again.
Until then
Remain safe and take care
