I don’t want you to be tainted to write something comparable to mine. Rely on your own ideas and imagination.
LOVE'S Emperor Story
4 of Swords I spent so much time thinking about how bad everyone else was I paralyzed myself with fear and grief . It was time for a break from self abuse and think things through more effectively. For a time I lived alone, isolated from people thinking about where to go next and how to be okay with myself.
4 of Pentacles Eventually, I figured it out, or so I thought. I started a business, making good money and got into a relationship that gave me a lot of power. After awhile, I thought I had it all. However, I was always afraid. Always I was thinking my new significant other would stop loving me and look to others in addition to believing that my friends only loved me for my wealth. I thought I had it figured out but now I’m stuck again.
The Emperor This time, a visit to my grandfather is what is needed. The trip to his kingdom took much effort but well worth it. When I arrived he made my big problems feel smaller. Grandfather led me with his leadership and example to begin to manage my world differently. He reminded me to build my throne and honor myself. Lead myself from within and structure my heart and emotions to begin to conquer my internal unruliness. These were wise instructions.
Death The only thing left to do was to die. It was time to let go of all of my ideas and beliefs about who I am. Until now, I never really let go and allowed life to just unfold. I had always felt I had to control everything and every outcome and if I didn’t get what I wanted I believed I would be miserable. It was exhausting. It was time to surrender and basically die.
4 of Wands Now I am free. Free to live and love again. I am letting go of the past and making a new start. Within myself I find a good, solid, secure home. Now I am filled with happiness within, enjoying the good times. Since I now choose to see it I possess the peace and harmony which I always sought. Surrounded by good friends we are daily celebrating our joyful life together.
