Queen of Scepters reminds you that you are confident, courageous, and determined. You are here to see through your creative visions and life purpose, even in the face of adversity and challenge. You are also highly self-actualized and self-aware, knowing how to best channel your strengths and your weaknesses so that you can achieve your goals. Queen of Scepters stands for knowing what you want and knowing how to get it, a master at engaging with others to achieve goals. Stay fiercely determined and focused on these goals. Queen of Scepters asks you to be bold and courageous in your undertakings and actions. Don't be afraid to own your true power and put it out into the world. Believe so much in yourself and what you stand for that you are unafraid to speak up and be heard. Others will be drawn in by your energy, passion, and enthusiasm. You have an ability to express your passions with great authenticity and courage. No-one will silence you.
Queen of Scepter's face is half painted in Dia de los Muertos make-up with a red moon behind her. In a proud and royal stance, she wears Spanish-style full dress and holds the red scepter as her royal staff. The moth in the image symbolize magic and endings. Moths balance the more sinister, nocturnal shadow side to the bright butterfly of our psyches. Both symbolize intense transformation of death and rebirth. Queen of Scepters encourages you to get to know your shadow self-the lesser known and sometimes darker side of who you really are. This doesn't necessarily have to be a negative aspect of yourself. While you may want to hide this part of yourself, Queen of Scepters encourages you to express this side more openly with others-don't be afraid to show your dark side every now and then. It will make you more real and authentic and will help you to connect on a deeper level with others.
The first sign of the Zodiac, Aries are trailblazers. Passionate and independent, Aries never do something just because everyone else is doing it. Their fiery temper can be an asset. When Aries are angry, they never play the passive-aggressive card. Aries always tell you what they're thinking with a frankness that may occasionally border on rudeness. But even if Aries seems overly blunt with their opinion, that's only because the Ram values honesty above all else.
