Alright, let’s talk about this here Empress card, you know, the one they got in them fancy decks. Folks keep askin’ if it’s a yes or a no when it shows up all turned around. Now, I ain’t no fancy card reader, but I’ve seen enough in my life to tell ya a thing or two.
So, this Empress, right? When she’s standin’ up straight, all proper like, it’s a big ol’ YES. Like, “Sure thing, honey, go for it!” But when she’s flipped over, upside down, things get a bit… wonky. It ain’t as clear-cut, see?
Most times, if you get that Empress reversed, it’s a NO. Plain and simple. Like, “Hold your horses, darlin’, things ain’t right just yet.” It could mean you’re outta whack with your fella, or maybe you’re just plain impatient. You know, like when you’re waitin’ for the bread to rise and you keep pokin’ it? It ain’t gonna help none.
- If she’s up, it’s a YES.
- If she’s down, it’s mostly a NO. But…
Now, here’s the tricky part. Sometimes, even when she’s upside down, it ain’t a hard no. It’s more like a “maybe, but watch out!” Like when you’re walkin’ through the woods and you see a pretty flower, but you know there might be snakes hidin’ under them leaves. You gotta be careful, see?
Think of it like this. That Emperor fella, when he’s reversed, he’s all outta sorts. Can’t control nothin’, maybe even a bit lazy. That Empress, she’s kinda similar when she’s flipped. She might be tellin’ you that you’re lackin’ somethin’. Maybe you ain’t takin’ care of yourself, or maybe you’re lettin’ other folks walk all over ya. You gotta get yourself straightened out before you can get a yes.
And if we’re talkin’ about love? Well, honey, if she’s upside down, it means there’s trouble brewin’. One of you is wearin’ the pants, and the other one’s gettin’ walked on. You gotta find a way to balance things out, like a good seesaw. Otherwise, it’s gonna be a bumpy ride.
Some folks say that Queen of Swords, even when she’s reversed, can still be a yes. But it’s a tricky yes, a yes with a warnin’. Like when your neighbor says, “Sure, borrow my sugar,” but you know she’s gonna be watchin’ you like a hawk. You gotta be careful who you trust, and what you agree to. That Empress reversed, she’s kinda like that. She might say yes, but she’s also sayin’, “Watch your back, girl.”
And them Lovers? When they’re reversed, it means you ain’t on the same page as your loved ones. You’re outta sync, like a bad dance. You gotta find a way to get back in rhythm, to understand each other again. It ain’t easy, but it’s worth it.
So, to sum it all up, that Empress reversed ain’t a straight answer. Most times, it’s a no. But sometimes, it’s a maybe with a big ol’ BUT. You gotta look at the whole picture, see what else is goin’ on in your life, and then trust your gut. It’s like bakin’ a cake. You can follow the recipe, but sometimes you gotta add a little extra somethin’ to make it just right.
Don’t go relyin’ on just one card, neither. Life ain’t that simple. It’s like tryin’ to plow a field with just one horse – it’ll take you forever, and you’ll probably end up with a crooked row. You gotta look at all the cards, all the signs, and then make your own decision. That’s the only way to get a real answer.
And remember, even if you get a no, it ain’t the end of the world. Sometimes, no is just a way of sayin’ “not yet.” You gotta keep tryin’, keep pushin’, and eventually, you’ll get where you need to go. Like my old granny used to say, “Even a blind squirrel finds a nut every now and then.” So don’t you go givin’ up just ’cause one card looks a little wonky.
It’s all about figuring things out, plain and simple. And that, my friend, is somethin’ no card can tell ya for sure.
