Journeys - Step #5 - The Emperor

Missing image
The Emperor – Key of IV

His symbols:  Throne, ram's heads, orb and scepter. Sometimes an eagle.

As Aries, the Ram, the Emperor naturally follows the pregnant Empress. Aries is the first sign of the Zodiac.



Stubborn as the Ram that is his Icon
Enthusiasm emits dusk ‘till dawn

Controlling and Tyrannical
Demanding and Irresistible

An aggressive leader that many follow
He loves to rule with intelligence in tow.

The father figure with charismatic energy
Creating his ego Empire impatiently.

Strong willed, his foundation will not be of clay
If his boredom and restlessness can be kept at bay.

He is the infant of the universe with power in his hand
A baby whining and crying for us to succumb to his demands.

He is Emperor
  Newborn of the cosmos.

Author notes

This character draws my thoughts to the evolution of the human race and where we are at the present time; self serving, tyrannical, I/My negotiable, just like the infant or toddler learning how to test her/his parameters with parents and teachers. I believe we are at the “Emperor” stage of our evolution process as a species.

    I wish!

    That you had had it in my contest. It would've been at least a silver. I love what you did with him. The finish is truly original. I bow to your poetic inspiration.
