The Empress

The Empress

previous      next

Venus

The Empress is queen of queens, the wife archetype. Radiating warmth, she gazes at the dove (and beyond into the next card). Two cherubs overlook her and two overlook the other half. The pelican feeding her young her own blood symbolizes the self-sacrifice of motherhood.
