You have chosen the Empress and the Ten of Swords. The Empress is a card that teaches us to value our possessions and the Ten of Swords explains that you're exhausted. You've been going through a tough time and indeed you may have felt total loss, betrayal or humiliation. This is linked with being stabbed in the back by a certain group of people. The energy you've been experiencing which has been quite negative - is to do with you working far too hard and mentally feeling drained. The Empress is here to look after you for she is someone who will nurture you. The Empress is a mother figure - your situation is getting much better for it is now the time for wealth, health and abundance. Out with the old - sweep the decks clean and start again. It's time for a new chapter focused on you. The Empress works with the Planet Venus which is about the love, romance and the happy side of everyone. It's a looking after yourself, a security card. Things that feel that contentment, happiness and the simple pleasure of what nature can give us. You'll feel much better if you adopt an environment that is gentle, calming and very pretty - so a walk in the park or out to the countryside would be really good. If you can get involved in something that is soothing to you and that has an environmental link you would really feel the benefit - Venus is all about surrounding yourself with the pleasures and the pursuits of what we love and feel is a reflection of who we are. For some people this can be to do with art, for some it can be the environment and for others it can be adorning themselves in a new image, a new hairstyle, a new accessory - whatever - but it can be cheap and cheerful for all we've ever got to do is to get out with nature and look how beautiful the world really is. You're being asked to look at all of this and to appreciate the abundance that is going on around you and to not reflect on the difficult times for they are now in the past position. Yes, it still feels like it's around you but the energy has built up to it's worst, it's now time for a change and a good change where you can concentrate on the beautiful things that you have in your life - the Empress is about valuing the possessions that we love and care about whether it's to do with marriage, sex, romance, or even the value of our possessions.
