Upright Meaning:
Creativity at work, taking care of colleagues, decorating the office or workspace
Is your career blooming at the moment? If not now, it will probably soon if you have drawn the empress card in a reading. The Empress also might herald a time of intensifying passion and creativity at work. So, if you have your creative juices flowing, now’s the time to put them to work in your career.
Chances are pretty good that what you put your energy into now will pay off. The Empress card is a good symbol for the workplace. This could mean that you have supportive and nurturing coworkers, or you are feeling particularly supportive and nurturing towards them.
It could also be a great time to give your office or workplace a facelift and use your creativity to make it a welcoming space.
Abundance, generosity, sharing wealth
The empress upright in a financial context is a lovely omen to receive. It indicates wealth and comfort. Or perhaps you are feeling generous, and this card is here to let you know it is a good time to help those in need.
Reversed Meaning:
Feeling uninspired at work, lack of progress, feeling insecure
Are you at a point in your career that feels tedious? The Empress reversed in a career reading indicates that not only does your career feel tedious, but it is also stale and not enriching your life.
Maybe you are bored or feel like there is no way for you to improve your position, as if you’ve reached the pinnacle of all it has to offer you.
Or perhaps you are not feeling appreciated at work or even feel insecure at work. Maybe you don’t fully believe in your skills and experience and are doubting that you have what it takes. This reversed card is letting you know that it’s time to make a change.
Even if that means studying something that can bring you more fulfilment in the future. It could also mean that if you are thinking of making a major change in your career, now is the time to do so. But not everything requires dramatic choices.
Sometimes (most often), the change that will be the most fulfilling will need to take place on the inside. For example, if you are feeling insecure then it may be time to develop skills to enhance your confidence.
Financial insecurity, not appreciating what you have, constant feeling of lack despite abundance
The Empress is a good indication of finances in both reversed and upright positions. Instead of indicating a lack of finances, she indicates that you are experiencing a lack of appreciation or ackowledgement. You have what you need, you just don’t see it. Make responsible financial choices, and you will be just fine.
