You have chosen the Empress and the Six of Swords. The Empress is a card that deals with the Planet Venus, this is to do with valuing our possessions: those things we love and care about. It's to do with love, romance, marriage, sex and the feminine side in all of us. Now the Empress is a mother figure that looks after us and makes sure that everything is growing. It's a fertile situation you find yourself in right now. There are lots of healthy female images making sure that you're being looked after. You're definitely making progress in everything you do for the Six of Swords is explaining you're going into calmer times and someone has come to help you out of troubled times. You're allowing someone else to take over right now, which is wonderful. Sometimes we all need to be the one that is helped and because of your really nice behaviour in the past you have deserved the help you are receiving. You're coming out of a difficult period. This is a passage away, moving into much calmer waters and much more beautiful scenery. It's time for some breathing space - you may have felt claustrophobic at one point and you're now responding to your true emotional needs and you are communicating with everybody in a rational way. You're very loyal and you have a willingness to accept things that are sometimes difficult but your opinion and your outlook have not gone unnoticed and this is why, with a sense of integrity someone has come to your aid. The Empress is making sure that you are looked after, not just in a materialistic sense but in a spiritual aspect too. The Empress works with the Planet Venus, which helps us to discover and express our own personal values. This is really important because after all, we are all individuals. The kind of things that it deals with are the choices we have when it comes to human pursuits and things that we have the deepest sense of what is beautiful, valuable to us and worthwhile. Now this can be anything such as our home, our car, and our whole image, even down to the d?cor inside our bedrooms. It is the simplest of things that makes us feel good and a reflection of the beautiful things that we appreciate. The Empress is asking you to let all of this grow and to surround yourself around soothing and comforting places where you adorn yourself or your environment.
