The Recurring Empress

I wanted to share a card that I keep pulling from both of my decks.

I was so marveled by the recurrence of this card every time I pull from my deck that I felt compelled to do a short little blog about it. I hope that anyone who may read this post can also derive a message from it, specifically, all of my Devine Feminines out there. 

So which card have I constantly been pulling?

None other than the Empress card or Fertility Card. 

Biddy. com describes the Empress card as signifying a “strong connection with our femininity. Femininity translates in many ways – elegance, sensuality, fertility, creative expression, nurturing – and is necessary for creating balance in both men and women. The Empress calls on you to connect with your feminine energy. Create beauty in your life. Connect with your senses through taste, touch, sound, smell and sight. Draw on these senses to experience pleasure and deep fulfilment. You are in a period of growth, in which all you have dreamed of is now coming to fruition. When the Empress appears in your Tarot readings, take a moment to reflect on the bounty that surrounds you and offer gratitude for all you have created so you can continue to build on this energy and create even more abundance in your life.

As the Mother Earth archetype, the Empress urges you to venture out into nature to ground your energy and be in flow with the earth. Take a trip to your favourite natural setting, be it a forest, beach, mountain or lake, and sit for a couple of minutes, hours or even days to breathe in the energy that surrounds you while marvelling in the beauty of your surroundings. Allow yourself the time and the space to enter a different frame of mind and receive the grounding spirit of nature into your heart and consciousness. The Empress can also suggest pregnancy or birth. This may be an actual pregnancy or childbirth, or a metaphorical ‘birth’ of a new idea or project. Bring your creative ideas into being by nurturing them and supporting their growth.”

The Empress is a remainder that it is important for humankind to remain rooted in the Earth, our femininity  and creativity. Every one of us has a spark of creation within us. As you go about your day appreciate your surroundings; the trees and plants or flowers that may surround you. It is when we as humans disconnect from the Earth that chaos ensues. Connect to your creative aspects or whatever it is that makes you happy as this will create balance and purpose within you. The Empress has been a pleasant occurrence in my day to day and I am grateful for the message she brings.  

I understand these are trying times but we can manifest whatever it is we want. The Empress reminds that this is a time to connect to the environment around us and our own divinity through creation.

Keep faithful.
