The Emperor card is the fourth card of the major arcana. This is the card of the pioneer that enters into unchartered territories, inspiring others to follow. This picture was taken in Santa Fe in the garden of my friends at sunset. The tree at some point was dying and we had to cut quite a few big branches. After a year or so it looked so alive and vigorous. The trunk with two main branches seemed to represent victory. So when I was looking for a picture representing the Emperor I felt this one was quite appropriate because it looked like a noble giant with his arms raised in glory.
The Emperor represents vitality and eagerness to discover. The Emperor also has to be careful about becoming angry and impatient with those that are not ready to follow him. He might start ahead of the others, and let them realize that they also want to go into the unknown.
If you pulled this card during a reading you have to take charge of your life. Reinvent yourself, try to transform the anxiety into excitement for the unknown.
