The Empress upright meaning
- abundance
- nurturing
- fertility
- creativity
Something you've been tending is ready to bloom, whether that's a project, a relationship, or a part of your life. Keep feeding it and slow down enough to enjoy the growth, instead of rushing the harvest.
The Empress reversed meaning
- creative block
- dependence
- neglect
- emptiness
You're pouring so much into everyone else that your own well has run dry, and the ideas have stalled. Care for yourself first this week, you can't grow anything from empty.
