My tarot card reading for my past, present and future!

Irin, you selected the following three cards, in this order, that represent your past, present and future:

My present: The Emperor

The Emperor represents the primary influence on the current state of your life. Right now, in your present, you may be faced with a great challenge that requires you to develop your leadership and problem-solving skills. Getting this card in this position may be a sign that logical thinking and strategizing is what's necessary in your current situation. At the same time, beware of letting your intellect overshadow your emotions. Instead, allow clear feelings to inform your reasoning, and seek the advice of a wise authority figure.

The Emperor is the fifth card to appear in the Major Arcana, and stands for authority and leadership. In this card he sits on his throne, holding the ancient Egyptian ankh in one hand, symbolizing wisdom. In the other hand sits the globe of dominion, suggesting his power. He is wearing a suit of armor and is flanked by rugged mountains, symbolizing strength. The Emperor is the Earth Father, representing logic and clear reasoning, as well as your paternal instincts. This card can be a sign that you may need to seek counsel from someone wise, or that you need to deal with an authority figure in your life.There are a number of ways this card could be playing out right now.

Some possibilities include:

• You may need to take the lead in your love life and make a strategic decision.
• Perhaps you need to reassess your finances and seek advice for some long-term planning
• You may need to take a stronger role in caring for your long-term health and well-being. This could mean finding a new doctor, researching health insurance, or trying a new fitness routine.

My past: Justice

Justice exerted a significant impact on your past. This means that at some point in your past, you may have needed to make an unbiased decision that would have an affect on your life or someone else's. You likely tried your best to weigh the pros and cons of the situation with balance and fairness. Your response to this situation, and the reactions it elicited from others, brought you to the point you're at today.

Justice represents fairness and honor. In the card, she holds a sword in one hand and the balance scales in the other. She sees things clearly, without obstruction. With all the evidence at hand, and armed with open-mindedness and unwavering honesty, Justice allows for fair and balanced decisions. This card signified that the right thing will happen in the end.

This card may have affected the overall tenor of your life, or just a particular area. Following are a few possibilities for how you experienced these influences in your past:

• You may have been involved in a family dispute that required the intervention of the law or another third party.
• In your social life, you may have had to decide what you believed was true regarding conflicting stories, or make a moral decision that had the potential to damage your relationships.
• You may have had to make a tough decision about whether or not to stay in a romantic relationship, given complicated circumstances.

My future: The Tower

Your future, as it currently stands, is represented by the third card you chose. The Tower is the card of facing the unexpected. At some point soon, you may find yourself experiencing a sudden change that you didn't see coming. In some way, your old way of life will end. You may experience this as a welcomed change, or it may feel upsetting. When the situation presents itself, try to face the change, as it's the path to getting on with your life.

The Tower is seventeenth in the Major Arcana, and is the card of the unexpected. A gray tower is on fire, struck by a bolt of lightening. The inhabitants are falling, and the king's crown has been knocked off. The falling raindrops form the Hebrew letter Yud, signifying the hand of God. These images represent the fall from grace. The Tower also symbolizes the element of surprise, and the way that sudden changes can transform your perceptions and your life. This surprise, whether it's pleasing or upsetting, serves as a reminder that you can't plan or prepare for everything in life.

More than any other step of life's journey, this card represents the lessons you must learn and the experiences in store for you in your upcoming karmic destiny. This may impact you in any number of ways, including:

• A sudden change in your love life, such as a breakup or a surprising change in the understandings of your existing relationship.
• An adjustment in your work life that dramatically changes your daily experience of the job, whether it's a new owner of the company, a new boss or co-worker, or a new set of responsibilities.
• A sudden shift in your family life, such as a drastic change in the closeness of your relationship to someone particular or to all of your relatives.
