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.

Complete Book of Tarot: When reversed, the Emperor suggests that in some way you may have been remiss in fulfilling your role as a leader, organizer, or person in charge. Perhaps you have been pussyfooting around or, at the other end of the spectrum, acting in a dictatorial manner. Dont be a wimp; its time to act your age and put your life in order. You need to analyze the situation, establish boundaries and limits, and develop a plan so that you do what needs to be done. President Harry S. Truman kept a sign on his desk that said ‘The buck stops here!’ to remind him that the president has final authority to make decisions but also ultimate responsibility for their consequences.
Elements of the Psychic World: According to tradition the I Ching dates back thousands of years. It was first devised from observing the natural world, the ebb and flow of is cycles. As it developed sages began to see it as a blueprint for understanding the universe. The two tri-grams which form the hexagrams were allegedly developed by Emperor Fu-his around 2852 BC. The solid lines represent yang – the male, creative, active energy; the broken lines represent yin – the female, passive, receptive energy. In c.1143 BC the trigrams were developed into 64 hexagrams by King Wen, founder of the Chou dynasty, and his son, the Duke of Chou, added commentary on the meaning of the symbols. In later years Lao-tzu (604-531 BC) drew upon the I Ching for inspiration when writing the Taoist text the Tao Te Ching. Confucius (551-479 BC) was also inspired by it and added ten commentaries, named the Ten Wing appendices.

Elements of the Psychic World: Divining was also done on the number of eggs laid by a chicken, how many were found and how many of them were together. According to the Roman biographer Suetonius, when Livia Drusilla (c.55 BC-AD 29), the mother of the future Emperor Tiberius, was pregnant she was anxious to divine the sex of the baby. She did this by taking a freshly laid chickens egg and carrying it in her bosom, to keep the temperature appropriate. When it hatched a chick with a beautiful cockscomb emerged; sure enough, a few months later Livia gave birth to a boy.
