III.
The Empress
NOURISHMENT, ABUNDANCE, GROWTH, MOVING AT THE SPEED OF SELF, EMBRACE
The Empress offers you the key to her garden of abundant care.
Within you will find that she has taken great effort to curate a space for herself that is wholly her own. As you immerse yourself in a realm filled to the brim with plants, she hopes you for you to feel the energy she has put into tending to their roots.
When you enter her garden, you will find you are not unlike the plants within. All that you are, all that you can become starts as a seed. A seed takes its own time, deep within the dark and rich earth. A seed does not question its needs, merely responds when it must. A seed drinks deep when it needs to. A seed does not wait for permission to grow, merely allows itself to unfold. And when it is ready, only when it is ready, does it begin to root, sprawl, and bloom. And when given the right time, space, and attention a simple handful of seeds can transform into a vibrant garden.
This is the lesson The Empress offers you freely, for she is both garden and gardener. She is the sunlight beaming down upon the soil, she is the rich earth, she is the water flowing beneath the surface, she is the seed yet to take root, she is the weeds, and she is the bloom. She nurtures it all just the same.
If The Empress has come into your life, she calls on you consider what kind of garden you would like to grow. What nourishes you? What sustains you? What do you want to bring into this world? With who can you share this vision? She calls on you to cherish your uniqueness, and reminds you that all it takes is just one seed to begin this journey of care. You are ready to bloom.
