  3. Netflix has renewed "The Empress" for a third and final season. The German series has been one of the streamer's biggest hits in recent years, and won the International Emmy for Outstanding Drama Series.

  4. @hanktank61 recently I watched The Empress (orig. Die Kaiserin) on Netflix. It's a German/Austrian #drama about Asburg Empress Elizabeth (known as Sissi).
    It was surprisingly good, "with a delicate mix of sorrow and joy" similar to K-dramas.

  6. (from the Herbcrafter’s Tarot by Latisha Guthrie and Joanna Powell Colbert)

    Roses are such an interesting plant/flower to choose for the Empress, because they present such different ways. Roses have a huge place in our iconography of romance, but they’re carefully groomed, meticulously moving from bud to tight full rose. Different colours mean different things, carefully worked out by Victorians obsessed with systematization. Which could be one side of the Empress, if we’re painting her as control like the Emperor, just in a different, more stereotypically “feminine” way.

    But then you see roses out in the world. You notice how gloriously messy they are, how wild, how the blooms burst off in all directions, nothing carefully manicured about them. They smell delightful, they drop petals everywhere, you have to deadhead them constantly if you want them to continue to bloom. I walked by a rosebush last week that was positively bursting with rose hips, and was tempted to do some urban foraging – except it was on someone’s lawn, and I’m not that audacious. 

    When we sit down with the Empress card, we also have to sit down with her counterpart, the Emperor, and examine how we see the two cards differently. The control of the Emperor is clear, his power exerted through hierarchy and orders from the top. What, in contrast, is the Empress? If the Emperor is urban spaces, the Empress is nature, where power exists in abundance but looks very different. It’s wilder, more unpredictable, full of overgrowth and hidden treasures as well as hidden brambles. It’s storms and quiet glades, all at once.

    Over time, this is where my take on the Empress has drifted. Not as an emblem of worldly female power, but of the power that surrounds us that we barely acknowledge – although in this age, the effects of climate change are becoming more and more obvious. The Empress is power, she is abundance, she is fertility – but she is all of those things in good and bad ways, and in ways that exist outside dichotomies of good and bad. 

    It’s one of those things I have to grapple with as a pagan – that nature is soul-filling, exhilarating, worthy of veneration, and yet also destructive, random, cruel. The rose gives us beauty, gives us vitamin C if we collect those rosehips, and hides thorns that make grasping it a risky move. Here, we see it around a honeycomb heart – another bounty of nature that can come with a sting. The Empress is abundance, but she is also wild, and where she sits out in her wildness, she can match the Emperor in his cities any day.

  7. The Empress, everyone loves her! Booklet says, among other things, that she indicates good luck. I’ll take it.

    In terms of what to keep in mind in the month ahead, I think the Empress, like the Emperor, projects I certain calm that I could use. Embrace being chill and confident, let creativity flow, etc.

  9. CW: Watching: The Empress

    Enjoying this. It doesn't disappoint with it's costuming and direction, if you can enjoy creative licence they've taken on some historical detail.

    It strikes a stylish balance and I'm finding the screenplay superb. Great romantic drama even in German 🙃.

    For the historical side of things check out episodes of podcasts: The History Chicks & Vulgar History episodes for the raw deal on Empress Sissi's life.

  12. With my current hand below

    Bonus! On the same walk, thinking about what I should focus on for the rest of my leave, I found a page of book for a bit of street bibliomancy. The first passage I saw was
    Vronsky stood still and asked directly: “How so? Do you mean he made your belle-sœur an offer yesterday?"
    from Anna Karenina.

    A lot to think about.
