The Emperor suggests that you are taking on a fatherly role, be it through protecting of one's loved ones, being the stability in someone else's life, and more. It represents worldy wisdom, which you may use to rule with a firm, yet fair hand. You are a great leader and demand such respect.

However, the reverse would suggest that you either lack or express too much of these traits in your life. Perhaps you are too rigid in your control, and it is hurting those around you. Or maybe you're giving away your power, and thusly letting others walk over you. The reverse asks you to reassess yourself then and your relationship to this position.
