Tarot: 3 The Empress

A gown decorated with pomegranates, a crown of stars, a rod, a heart-shaped shield with the symbol for Venus, a field of ripe wheat.

The empress is the card of birth. It isn’t just physical birth, as a person can only be born once, while the tarot is designed to apply equally in everyone’s life, no matter how old they happen to be. It is the birth of a project of some sort; the first physical steps in making something come to life that had existed in your thoughts. It is the first sign of creation.

Although this card has a person on its face, it is rare that someone will play its role. In this case, the Fool, after being shown his talents by the Magician, and being shown a direction by the High Priestess, becomes the Empress, and gives birth to his project.

There isn’t much to do about this card, except to continue and build upon your project. If you were thinking of writing in a blog, this would mark the time when you have selected your hosting and have written your first post. Start developing your habits and refining your methods.
