Tarot card number:  4 Star Sign:  Aries

Male Authority And Fatherhood

The Emperor is a card signifying masculine power and authority.  It can turn up in a reading to represent the law, or people in power over a person, such as a police officer or official of some kind.  The Emperor can literally reflect someone's father, or an older or authoritative man in a person's life. 

The Emperor stands for officialdom in all its roles, higher authority, fatherhood, older males, and law and order. 

Relationships 

In a relationship reading, the Emperor describes an older man or a very disciplined, authoritative man.  He can be autocratic and unemotional, however he is a good provider for his family and a stalwart support.  He is unromantic and holds high expectations of himself and all those around him. 

Reversed

The Emperor reversed describes a man with a lack of self-discipline or authority.
