1. It means that you are gullible
2. Tarot Cards are bad. You should ignore it.
3. Thirteen's Observations The Emperor card is the "Who's the boss?" card. It is an important question. The meaning of the card includes being in control over your environment, your body, your temper, your instincts, your love life. This is not the time to give into the unconscious, not the time to let yourself be controlled by the wants and needs of others. It is a card that gives the Querent permission to be aggressive, brave, bold and in command. The Emperor could be a father or father figure, leader or employer, either a demanding tyrant or a charismatic king. If the card stands for the Querent, he/she should think about whether their Empire has become an unwelcome chore and if it has, are they now a bad leader, demanding, unreasonable, unhappy. It might be time to abdicate the throne.
4. The meaning given in the Rider Waite book is: Stability, power, aid, protection, a great person, conviction, and reason. Hope that helps.
5. War, conquest, victory, strife, ambition.
6. Power and Authority,
7. Just to add to what Randy said. You also need to know where it falls in the spread, so you can ascertain whether this is an outside influence, like a connected patriarch, male role model or dominant man, or whether it's an internal manifestation of the masculine aspect of your personality calling.
8. What you have to know is where it came out in your spread and what the cards were surrounding it. The answers you have been given already are correct from the "text book" definition. But you have to look even closer at what the card means to you when you see it in its position. It is a card of power, and more important, influence. what ever is surrounding it has a strong influence or is being influenced .. I can help you out more if I knew what cards were surrounding it ..
9. The Emperor is the father figure. He is a good man with strong ethics but he is very strict and unbending. His challenge is to learn to be flexible. He is strong willed and has a solid foundation. Nothing frivolous about this man.
