In this episode, we reimagine the Emperor card by stripping it of all the patriarchal layers and revealing the true nature of this Archetype. The story of the Dagda and his relationship to the land gives us an alternative version of masculinity, one that is already naturally flourishing in our society more and more every day. The idea of a masculine force or a father figure has changed, the expectations need not be so rigid or burdensome. Join us as we explore the possibilities of The Emperor.
