Nostradamus








The deeper meaning in it represents being the emperor in your domain of celestial matters in the pursuit of the godhead.
Externally, this reflects the greatest solid sense of authority, kingly or otherwise in the larger structural construct of society. In that, the reflections of this are within the governments of the self, and its externalised acceptance.
This card represents authority, leadership, and paternity that can be found within oneself. Herein within is the drive and determination to lead and to be in control.
The bigger picture. Long term life envision. People in authority to the querent’s life and emotion. Structures or organisations that govern the querent’s life while they are in harmony with them.
A deeper understanding and integration to ambition and life pursuits. Consolidating a new chapter to life, or possibly buying a new home, or strategic starts and conclusions to vision.
The reverse of this card expresses the loss of control within oneself over any given situation. Here higher powers are at play and you may feel threatened for a lack of authority, or wistful for authority you once had.
Rules and regulations may govern your path, forcing you to conform and obey.
Rigidity, implacable self-righteousness, inflexibility, arrogance, dogma against human feelings.
A need to take responsibility for yourself, to become the ruler of your own life. Getting organised and focused are also indicated by this card.

A coat of quotes and passing poetry
"
This soaring, sacred thirst, Ambassador of bliss, approached first.
Making a place in me
That made me apt to prize, and taste, and see.
For not the objects, but the sense Of things doth bliss to Souls dispense,
And make it, Lord, like Thee. Sense, feeling, taste, complacency, and sight,
These are the true and real joys,
The living, flowing inward, melting, bright, And Heavenly pleasures; all the rest are toys:
All which are founded in Desire, As light in flame and heat in fire.
"Ambassador of Bliss | Thomas Traherne
