Notes on the Host (Empress)

I see the Host as welcoming, caregiving, loving, warm, creative. He provides nourishment, home and love. In a gendered model, he would represent all the “mother” things. He is meant to invoke a desire to be hugged and held. The safety and satiety provided by the Host resolves the Eriksonian crisis Trust vs Mistrust, as the querant encounters what he needs for his creature comforts.
