The Emperor

"The Emperor represents structure, order, and authority. He reminds you of the importance of logic and discipline in achieving your goals."

Upright

Establish order and structure in your life. Take charge of the situation. Logic and reason will guide you to success.

Reversed

Domination, rigidity, or lack of discipline. You may be too controlling or, conversely, lacking in leadership.

Love & Relationships

Deep Dive & Archetype

The The Emperor embodies the archetype of The Father. In Jungian psychology, this represents a fundamental part of the human psyche that we all share.

When this card appears in a reading, it suggests that you are currently enacting this mythic story in your own life. Whether upright or reversed, the energy of the The Father is present and asking for your attention.
