"Lessons from the Empress offers a hands-on guidebook to better mental and spiritual wellness. When the world needs these lessons the most, Snow and Plouff come through for us all." --Benebell Wen, author of Holistic Tarot
The Empress tarot card is the key to understanding how creative expression is the foundation of true self-care. Our authentic self, this abundant space, is not something we go find--it's something we create. Lessons from the Empress will guide you on an exploration of the five phases of self-care: Major Arcana--spiritual self-care; the Wands--self-awareness; the Swords--self-expression; the Cups--self-love; the Pentacles--self-confidence.
In Lessons from the Empress, with the Empress as your guide, you'll learn how to practice self-care and self-discovery in several ways:
- See the Empress as a metaphor for your personal journey
- Get in touch with who you are at your core
- Take an active role in protecting your own well-being and happiness
- Use easy-to-follow magical rituals, tarot spreads, and creativity exercises to embrace your true self and express that self to the world

--Theresa Reed, author of Twist Your Fate
In Lessons from the Empress, Snow and Plouff go beyond the Empress's superficial social media meme to show that embracing the archetype isn't just about crystals and bubble baths. It's an act of digging deep into your soul to find your authentic, creative, and bountiful self.

In Lessons from the Empress, Snow and Plouff have combined their considerable wealth of knowledge to share powerful and useful tips on integrating creativity into daily life through the use of tarot cards. From reminding us that creativity is our birthright to providing a self-care equation tying in all four suits of the deck, this book is packed with personal stories, original tarot spreads, and helpful insights on using the cards for inspiration, expression, and discovery. Lessons from the Empress is an excellent resource for anyone looking for inclusive, accessible methods for integrating tarot into their creative workings.
--Meg Jones Wall, author of Finding the Fool: A Tarot Journey to Radical Transformation
"Lessons from the Empress brings tarot to life! With a pack of cards in hand, this is your guidebook to better mental and spiritual wellness. When the world needs these lessons the most, Snow and Plouff come through for us all."
--Benebell Wen, author of Holistic Tarot
"Lessons from the Empress is especially useful for artists, writers, and other creative types. Using the Empress card as a jumping-off point, Snow and Plouff explore each card through the lens of self-care and nurturing creativity. They define creativity pretty broadly, though, so you can use this book for any kind of personal growth."
