Today’s card is from “The Celtic” tarot and is the Empress. The Empress is the third card in the Major Arcana, which means if she were drawn in a reading she would more likely represent something in the questioners life that was significantly more important or more weighty than something that was represented by say, the Eight of Pentacles.
The Empress is about many things, most often I find it talks about people who are nurturing, a lot of times it comes up if the person I’m reading from is finding a way to rekindle the fires of creative passion, and also if they’re helping foster that ability in others. It also represents the powerful feminine figure. I tend to think of the Mama Bear/Mama Wolf type; a person that you would associate with being the warm, caring mother type who would not only feed their family but feed their childrens’ friends and their friends families, but Gods help anyone who crosses her young or anyone else she considers Family.
