-4: The Emperor -

Description

1st in a series of Black Butler images, based on the Major Arcana of Tarot cards.

Ciel Phantomhive plays the role of the Emperor, card number 4.

The Emperor, as Aries, the Ram, naturally follows the Empress. On the one hand, he is Mars (the planet that rules Aries) to her Venus, her lover and compliment, father to her mother, civilization to her nature, imposed order to her artful creativity. He is the "All Father" giving his children the structure they need in their lives to help them become responsible adults.

Aries is also, however, the first sign of the Zodiac, metaphorically the "infant." Like an infant he is filled with enthusiasm, energy, aggression. He is direct, guileless and all too often irresistible. Unfortunately, like a baby he can also be a tyrant: impatient, demanding, controlling.


It was either the Emperor or the Fool for Ciel but I went with the first of the two due to Ciel's demanding and controlling nature.

I will be offering this as a Print for purchase. If you would like one, awesome. : )

Ciel Phantomhive belongs to the creators of Black Butler.
