L'Impératrice
The Daughter of the Mighty Ones
Numbers II, III, IV, V = Leaders of Society.
Numbers II and III represent two women: numbers IV and V, their husbands: they are the temporal and spiritual leaders of society.
Number IV represents the King, and III the Queen. They have both for symbols the eagle on a shield, and a scepter surmounted by a sphere crowned with a cross, called a Tau, the sign of excellence.
The King is seen in profile, the Queen facing. They are both seated on thrones. The Queen wears a long dress, the back of her throne is high: the King is in a chair shaped like a gondola or shell, his legs crossed. His semicircular crown is surmounted by a pearl with a cross. That of the Queen terminates in a peak. The King carries an order of knighthood.
