The Emperor

The Emperor is a rugged, experienced man adorned in red sitting on his throne.  Mountains are to his back, symbolizing life's triumphs, challenges and even loses.  His throne has rams on each of the four corners, which is the Zodiac symbol for Aries, it is strong, unshakable, unmovable, sturdy - he is secure in his position.  The Emperor can be stern, ruling, unmovable in his position and opinion, and is a regulator.

The crown adorns his head signifies that he is in charge, he's wearing armor and ready for the fight, however he's also adorned in a red garment, signifying that he does have a softer side that could be appealed to.  The garment also makes him approachable.

In the background there is a small, calm stream - water is symbolic of emotion and the calm water here confirms or validates that the Emperor is a very calm, patient individual.

The Emperor holds an orb in the left hand, symbolizing the Earth - he's in control, he's also using experience and intuition to analyze and ponder events that come his way.  In the right hand he holds cross - it's also a symbol of balance between the four elements and he understands how each of the four elements can interconnect and influence life.
