	'''Gender, gender, everywhere.'''		'''Gender, gender, everywhere.'''

			"The Empress is the ultimate feeling type, who rules her complex realm by a delicately balanced discrimination based on her sense of values. The woman who has a developed sense of feeling reveals it in a similar manner; she is a fair and sympathetic mother, dedicated to the well-being of her family, and she makes a warm and helpful member of the community. She is adept at handling people and getting the best out of them, and reveals a deep understanding of their problems and difficulties." <ref> Douglas, Alfred. The Tarot: The Origins, Meaning, and Uses of the Cards. Canada: Penguin Books, 1991. p. 59.</ref>

	Oswald Wirth associates the Masonic Empress card with form, ideas, and archetypes, i.e. "...ideal forms or pure ideas according to which everything is created." As he notes, "This sovereign, dazzling with light represents 'Creative Intelligence', the mother of form, pictures, and ideas." <ref>Wirth, Oswald. Tarot of the Magicians: The Occult Symbols of the Major Arcana That Inspired Modern Tarot. San Francisco. CA: Weiser Books, 1990. p. 71-2</ref>. Note the inappropriate and sexist association of form/formation with the female gender.

	"Where Isis is the Cosmic Mother, associated with the moon and with divine secrets, this is Demeter, the Earth Mother, symbolizing the nourishing fruitfulness and thousand delights of earth.

			Metzner provides several examples of an attempt to paint authenticity on the card.

			Metzner says of the original Chariot "Follow ing an ancient Eastern allegory we can see the driver as the mind, the sphinx-lions as the emotions (positive and negative), and the chariot as tire body. Gurdjieff pointed out that to achieve unity, not only must the different parts of this complex organization be brought into harmony, and under the direction of the “master,” the “I”; but the connections also must function well. The driver (mind) must hear and understand the master (the I); he must learn to guide the lions (feelings) with reins; the lions must be properly harnessed to the carriage (related to the body." but says of a card from the Aquarian Tarot that "In the card of the Victorious One, the Aquarian Tarot’s version of this image, the self has over come this disorganization. The chariot, which now has both harness and reins is in the back ground; the man is walking with right foot sandaled, earth-grounded, and left foot winged, ready to flv. He is leading the black and white lions by a leash. A brilliant sun over his head guides him, and an eagle protects him. Birds are holding up a transparent veil, behind which wolves are snarling and fighting. That is, though the conflict of passions and instincts continues, it no longer affects him or deviates him from his path; he is not in it." <ref>Metzner, Ralph.
