Hello, lovelies! I’m back again! This week, the Emperor. The Emperor. Upright: A Father Figure. Control and security. Powerful leader. Reversed: Megalomaniac. Power-hungry, excessive. Immature and cruel. ---

Hooray more tarot poems!!! 👏 Just want you to know that I really look forward to reading these, @Amethyst! 😍 This is gorgeous- the easy route would have been to just take some of the main traits of The Emperess and give them a masculine spin, but you went so much deeper. These haikus really give The Emperor a completely unique identity! 🙌 “Megalomaniac” - now there’s a big fancy word! 😆 I had to look it up, so for anyone else who wants to learn a cool new word today: **Megalomaniac** : _noun_ A person who has an obsessive desire for power. (From [Oxford Languages](https://www.google.com/search?q=megalomaniac&rlz=1C1CHBD_enPL916PL918&oq=megalomaniac&aqs=chrome..69i57.1858j0j7&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8)) Great job and thanks for sharing, Kasie! 💕 ---

Thank you so much for the kind words @BryWisteria! I’m happy you look forward to them. Blurred for political reasons: I’ve got to admit, I was thinking of a certain person in the American Presidental Race when I wrote the reversed Emperor. Megalomaniac seems like such a good word for him. LOL. I could see paralles. 😅 ---
