The Emperor card is probably the most regal card in the Tarot
Deck (more so than any of the four Kings). A major theme of
this card is that of fair and logical authority arising from
the wise use of discipline and a strong character. The Emperor
card is number 4.
The Emperor is usually depicted sat on a throne while holding
symbolic objects that represent his royalty and authority.
When the Emperor appears in a reading, this card may refer
to the sitter, to a significant influence on the sitter (especially
a male person in authority – such as a father, grandfather,
boss, business executive, or official), or to the need for
a supportive authoritatively balancing influence in the situation.
It may also invite questions about the extent to which the
situation is sufficiently, or excessively, organized.
