Family, Friends & Relationships:

It looks as though a kind, older man may be part of your scenario. This could be a work colleague, or your father or a father-type figure. Perhaps he will be interested in you romantically. If so, don’t rule him out, just because of his age. You may feel that this man rules with an iron fist and that he can be frustrating at times. Despite that he is trying to help you to see that rules have their place and their reasons, and you will come out all the better for it. Above all else, this man teaches – without even trying, perhaps – the benefits of structure and logic ruling over the emotions and lesser desires.

The appearance of The Emperor shows us that domination of the mind over the heart is sometimes necessary even though it is not wanted. In fact he should be welcomed and that is what you must think about when he appears. When hard choices must be made it’s important to maintain your concentration and focus. The Emperor signals this but he also signals that now is a time you should find it easier to make hard choices. Enjoy the assertiveness and confidence that this self-control and focus brings. Forge ahead and do what you know is best. If you can master yourself then you should have little problem mastering most of the other obstacles that life throws at you.

Book Details
Elements of the Psychic World: According to records the activity began with streaks of animal faeces or manure appearing on the floor of the house. A young boy, Dean, was blamed; however, when the boy was out of the house the stains continued to appear, proving that he was not the cause. Soon the activity increased: windows were smashed, objects were thrown and fires broke out. This time the focus was identified as 11-year-old Dinah McLean, an adopted child of the family.

Portable Magic: Lay out the circle of the zodiacal trumps in the usual way, beginning in the east with the Emperor on Aries and proceeding clockwise around the circle to the trump the Moon on Pisces. If you are sitting in the west facing east, Aries will be at the top of the circle from your perspective.

Tarot Triumphs: 54 Visitors to Venice may be struck, too, by a resemblance of the towers in the Moon to those of the medieval Arsenal, which guards another watery domain, standing on either side of a major canal at the entrance to the sea lagoon in the Adriatic, in which the island-city lies. I have always found this an eerie, compelling place, which puts me in mind of the Tarot Moon.

Elements of the Psychic World: Philosophy developed out of Platonic thought (see Plato) from the third century AD onwards by the philosopher Plotinus and later under Iamblichus and Porphyry. Neo-Platonism placed more emphasis on mystical vision. The goal of humankind is the vision and union with God and this can only be achieved by withdrawing from everything that is material. A combination of Platonic philosophy and Eastern mysticism, there are echoes of Neo-Platonism in the Kabbalah and other esoteric systems. Neo-Platonism was at its peak from about 250 to 550. It was banned in 529 by Emperor Justinian but was revived by Renaissance mystics.
