The Empress Card – Tarot Arcana May 2023
The Empress Card symbolizes human instincts, ambition, desires, sex, and money. They are the carnal temptations of life, the duality between living according to society’s rules or letting yourself be carried away by pleasure.
2023 May Arcana – The Empress Card
We are living in a very interesting period between the eclipse and the continuation of a mercury retrograde. The Month of May starts with a second eclipse on the 5th. Patience and compassion are the two words that should summarize our biggest challenges for this period, especially when it refers to our relationship with the ever-roaring and changing collective.
The sun entered the season of Taurus on the 20th of April, almost at the same time as the eclipse, just in time to be heavily influenced by the retrogradation of Mercury. Many of us may still be feeling the effects of changes from these powerful energies.
Astrological and Archetypical Forecast
Collectively, we will be more inclined to deal with relevant aspects of Taurus, such as family, the body, resources, materialization… and family and love relationships.
Mercury will be in retrograde from the 20th of April to the 15th of May. Review your positions, the different ways of relating to each other, and how we fight for our dreams.
Many old issues and even resentments can come back. Resist the impulse of creating dialogues or fueling conversations with the idea of “clear the air.” We can’t win any battles with these intentions, no matter how sincere they can be when Mercury is retrograde. This is particularly true if we are reaching out to the other party, hoping you will gather a different result.
Taurus usually symbolizes many wonderful feelings and a particular way to see places, such as Love, intimacy, family, welcoming, and friendships.
The Month of May brings the vibration of two Arcana tarot simultaneously; The Hanged Man and also the Empress.
Because this month has been receiving the golden influence of Venus and because it is a vibration of the Taurus season, we understand that the Arcana that will express the best energy forecast is the third card of the Major Arcana—the Empress.
The Empress’ card is memorable because it represents beauty, intimacy, fertility, creativity, Love, and family coziness. The Empress is also related to the Mother and the feminine energies. It is not a coincidence that This is also a Month of Mother’s Day.
What does the Empress Tarot Card mean?
The Empress card symbolizes human instincts, ambition, desires, sex, and money. They are the carnal temptations of life, the duality between living according to society’s rules or letting yourself be carried away by pleasure. In general, in moments of choice, this arcanum brings a tendency to choose the path that will bring you momentary gratification, even if it sacrifices an important long-term benefit.
The Empress Card represents the archetype of Mother Earth (Gaia). According to Jung’s depth psychology, she also represents the anima present in everyone (the prominent glottis, a masculine attribute, seems to show the presence of the animus in the Empress).
The Empress of Tarot is a good adviser.
LOVE
The Empress card talks about romantic Love, lasting friendships, and family terms of endearment. So be careful not to fall into temptation and end up damaging your true relationship. If you want to build something more meaningful with someone, be careful not to get carried away by negative impulses. Set clear boundaries and choose your partners wisely.
SOCIAL AND FAMILY LIFE
Beauty and balance are the keywords to deal with the social aspect under the regency of this arcane. It is necessary to control your impulses and act carefully and wisely. Avoid negative behaviors such as jealousy, stubbornness, possession, and direct conflicts. As this arcane represents individuality, it is necessary to make an effort to evaluate and understand the desires of the collective as well, not just your own.
FINANCE
In general, the empress card in finance talks about material achievements, but with a little difficulty. It requires you to change the scenery to strive towards your goals. Beware of over-ambition, over-spending and risky investments.
