The Emperor (Upright) in a Love Reading
New Relationship
The Emperor is “all in” at the start of a relationship when everything is still fresh and new. He will struggle if the relationship becomes routine and ceases to offer new excitement and challenges. Like the astrological sign of Aries, the Emperor thrives on new beginnings. For this relationship to work, there must always be something fresh and exciting to look forward to.
Long Term Partnership
If the Emperor has made a commitment, he is one of the most stable figures in the tarot for the longevity of relationships. He is protective and responsible role model for children. However, the Emperor tends to be stubborn. You may have to be the one who compromises more in the relationship than he does.
Seeking Romance
It’s time to make the responsible choice for your love life to improve. Allow your “Inner-adult” to call the shots right now. Stand up for your dignity, boundaries, and self-respect. Don’t waste your time with anyone who’s proven they are beneath you.
The Emperor (Reversed) in a Love Reading
New Relationship
The Emperor reversed is no poet! If you are looking for this individual to gush on you with romantic accolades describing your beauty and best qualities, you probably won’t receive these flowering words. Competition, sports, business, and the drive for the external success are the arenes he thrives in.
Long Term Partnership
The Emperor reversed can represent a partner who can be domineering and autocratic. He (or she) will insist on being in full control and will resent any attempt to coerce or pressure him. If he feels insecure in his authority, he may also display his temper, or will attempt to bring down others a notch to soothe his wounded pride.
Seeking Romance
Sometimes the Emperor reversed can represent either an absent father, or a relationship partner who has many have issues surrounding a complicated history with his own father. The lack of a father’s approval and validation can create deep insecurities for both men and women in their adult relationships. It may be time for you or your partner to tackle old issues from the past.
