The Emperor Tarot Card Meaning

Group: Major Arcana · Keywords: authority, leadership, stability

The Emperor is authority and leadership: success earned through your own ability, strength and determination.

General meaning

A natural leader, confident, generous and respected, perhaps heading a large business or organisation. The warning: do not let power go to your head.

Work

Promotion to senior management, the backing of an investor, or postgraduate study abroad. International trade, diplomacy, politics, import and export, and tourism are favoured. Avoid clashing with powerful interests.

Love

As steady as a rock and as deep as the ocean, but reserved and hard to read. Once in love, determined to win the person over. Partners are often accomplished; romance may not come naturally, and pride runs high.
