The Empress represents the Great Mother archetype - the universal mother, eternal mother, and goddess of love, beauty, abundance, and creative power. She births new life and manifests nature's magic in the physical world by combining love with wisdom. Associated with Venus, the Empress rules from the heart and governs emotions, love, passion, imagination, the arts, and music. Her color is green to represent healing love and creativity. As the number three, she signifies conception, manifestation, and new beginnings through a balance of masculine and feminine energies.
