Correspondence:-
Colour: Green
Herb: Rose
Astrology: Venus
Rune: Berkana - the symbol of growth (birch tree) and describes the great Goddess. New beginnings based on existing roots established.
Hebrew: Daleth - the numerical value of 4. The archtype of physical existance. The glyph of nature, divisible and divided, expressing every idea that proceeds from the abundance born of division.
Analysis:
The white and red colours prominant on this card represent love in it's giving and receptive apects. The green and blue represent creativity, growth and understanding. The opening lotus held in her right hand in front of her heart chakra is phallus like by it's stem and indicates creative male procreative power which is unified with female surrender as indicated by her open left hand.
The pelican is feeding it's young with it's own blood showing unconditional maternal love. The double headed white eagle on her shield is transformation generated from the unified diverse aspects of one's own personal being. (Note how this corresponds to the red eagle of the Emperor). The Moon (unconscious emotion) and Earth (visible manifestation of that emotion) are united on this card and it can be used consciously as shown by the blue flames. The Maltese Cross only emphasis this. When this type of intergration exists in a person, he/she draws people to them by that sense of security. The Empress is looking to the future (towards the dove), looking away from the past (the sparrow).
