~Forgiveness~

Sometimes it is very hard for someone to forgive a perceived affront and by remaining closed-minded against the person you feel has hurt you without taking the time to sit down and discuss the matter in a rational manner only results in the loss of friendship and lost time.

If only all of us would take the time to develop empathy toward everyone and try to understand why someone makes a certain decision, we would probably all realize that it in no way means disrespect to anyone, but is a personal way to handle sorrow and grieving.

You are The Empress

Beauty, happiness, pleasure, success, luxury, dissipation.

The Empress is associated with Venus, the feminine planet, so it represents, beauty, charm, pleasure, luxury, and delight. You may be good at home decorating, art or anything to do with making things beautiful.

The Empress is a creator, be it creation of life, of romance, of art or business. While the Magician is the primal spark, the idea made real, and the High Priestess is the one who gives the idea a form, the Empress is the womb where it gestates and grows till it is ready to be born. This is why her symbol is Venus, goddess of beautiful things as well as love. Even so, the Empress is more Demeter, goddess of abundance, then sensual Venus. She is the giver of Earthly gifts, yet at the same time, she can, in anger withhold, as Demeter did when her daughter, Persephone, was kidnapped. In fury and grief, she kept the Earth barren till her child was returned to her.
