Happy Tarot Tuesday! This week, we’re talking about the Kings in the tarot… The Kings represent the full maturation of the Knights and rule alongside the Queens as equals in their different realms. Where the Queens reign over the inner world, the Kings rule over the outer world. They represent maturity and authority, a strong leader who protects and supports those under his care. The Kings are the epitome of healthy masculinity (again, regardless of gender, as we all have masculine aspects to our nature). Their dark side would include being overly authoritarian or, like the Swords, so logical that they ignore important wisdom of the imaginative or emotional realms, which is what makes the Queens a good balance force for them (and vice versa). In general, however, these court cards more often represent the quiet assurance of someone who had learned their life lessons the hard way: through experience, aging, and making mistakes. As a result, they have the impenetrable confidence of someone who doesn’t need to explain themselves or prove anything—an admirable quality, especially if imposter syndrome is something you struggle with. The Kings are all about owning your power and learning to use it wisely. ✨ Enjoy—and may your conversations with the cards be fruitful and illuminating! ✨ ✨ ✨ ✨
