Card 3-The Empress

Anora_Eldorath @Anora_Eldorath (6028) • United States 9 Jan 11

The Empress represents the Goddess on Earth. She represents the Goddess's creative forces as it directly relates to her Earth. A relevant Goddess comparison would be Demeter in all of her connections to the earth. She is the...
