This King is the master of the emotional realm. Not only does this indicate a natural genius for showing the love, it suggests a skill for diagnosing the emotional pitfalls that others fall into, and the ability (and inclination) to reach in and help others dig themselves out. Some folks have a hard time articulating or even recognizing their emotional needs, not everybody can feel what others feel the way that you do. While there are times when you experience this quality as a weakness, but it’s really your superpower. Your strength is in your ability to see the world through someone else’s eyes and feel the world with someone else’s heart. Whether you do this as a formal therapist, as a less-formal but always available 12 step sponsor, or as a comedian exploring hard truths in front of an audience, this card is your validation. Your insights serve as a beacon to others. Share your gift.
