The Empress

Nurturing and grounded, the Empress asks you to create something of your own. You’re on the right path according your higher self, your angels, or whatever higher power you have guiding you. A protective force has bestowed upon you and you are free to create, grow, and develop your ideas. The Empress represents a resolution from the duality of the High Priestess, who is the Empress’ advisor. In Spoopy Tarot this archetype is represented by a witch creates new realities through working with material aspects. They encourage you to think of your creation as a craft, not a science, so it’s ok to lose time in it or simply explore without a destination in mind. In the case of a new project or pregnancy, this card is a positive sign. The Empress is about abundance, a bountiful time.

The Empress Reversed

The Empress reversed is the card of burnout—the result of giving it your all and not receiving it all back. You’re facing a creative block of some kind. One reason you’re feeling burnout is that you’re overly dependent on others ideas of what you must be. Shielding people from the truth of who you are, or overprotectiveness or smothering, creates an unfair balance. Remember, as much as you love giving, others do too. Give your close a chance to give to you without a tit-for-tat exchange. You deserve it.
