The
Empress represents the great mother - she nurtures and provides. She rules
through love and embraces all of life. The Empress's sensuous nature loves
beauty and art. She creates harmony between spirit and matter. She is the Queen
of creation.
This gentle and elegant Japanese Empress walks hand in hand with
her child in a flowering garden. On the Empress’s kimono are cranes which
symbolize abundance through good fortune and longevity. The child has sunbursts
on her kimono; she thrives under her mother’s care. The blossoms symbolize
fertility and growth.
Meaning: If we open ourselves to what we need and give and receive love,
abundance will flow.
