PRS Tarot Salon presents The Emperor: No Church In The Wild

The Emperor: No Church In The Wild

The Emperor is the Aries card, ruled by Mars, which in traditional astrology rules the masculine principle. Mars is how we strive, achieve, and assert ourselves in the world. But it is also considered a malefic. Mars is the god of War, and as such can also signify aggression, separation, and loss.

The Emperor sits on a throne and we see mountains in the background; but unlike the Empress, which is the Venus card, everything around him is bare. We see the ram's heads of Aries on his throne - but it's made of stone. He wears a red robe (passion), a crown, and holds a sceptre and bauble, which indicate a level of mastery and luxury. Yet beneath that is his suit of armor.

Does he wear the armor because he's always ready to fight for his people? Is he humble and willing to be a common soldier when necessary? Is he a wise and benevolent leader who acts out of what's in the best interest for all? Or is he a tyrant and a bully? Does he destroy worlds or build them? The Emperor is how we assert power and dominance in our lives, but also how those same forces can be exerted upon us.

All levels welcome!

Presenter Bios:

Jenny Ruiz, a lifelong witch, was first drawn to tarot at the age of 8, and grew up reading for friends and family. The name Burning Times has been with her since the age of 19, and she chose it because it's a reminder that there will always be outside forces who are hostile to what we do; to femmes, to seekers, and to anyone considered Other. Though she has taken breaks from social media, she still does events and reads for private clients. One of her greatest joys in life is helping others connect to their own intuition and inner guidance.

Deborah Netburn has been turning to tarot for wisdom and guidance in her own life for over two decades. Largely self-taught, she is excited to gather and learn with other tarot enthusiasts in the LA area who share her love and reverence for the deep symbolic language of the cards.Deborah has had a lifelong fascination with humanity's rich variety of religious and spiritual practices and currently writes about faith, spirituality and joy for the Los Angeles Times.
