Every card in a traditional tarot deck has a specific meaning.
The cards are split into two categories: the Major Arcana and the Minor Arcana.
What are the Major Arcana cards?
The Major Arcana cards are also often complex and significant, and their appearance will influence the entire reading.
If you pull one or morein a multi-card pull, you’ll want to pay close attention.
By extension, this card also has an element of naivete and speaks to the excitement of the unknown.
“The big question forthe Empress,” Krans says, “is how will the power be used?
Will the Empress rule from above, looking down at those less fortunate?
“When this card shows up, we are usually giving our power away to something outside of ourselves.
You may feel like external circumstances and relationships give you value when this card appears.
“If you took that particular person away, you are still a loved and loving individual.
As Alexander explains, this represents inner power, overcoming weaknesses, courage, and persistence.
