Crook and Flail as the advice offered

Crook and Flail as the advice offered: In ancient Egyptian times, the Crook and Flail were emblems of the Pharaoh’s authority and a hint of that energy is retained by this card. It carries the same implication wherever it appears – from the smallest private social group to the largest corporation. This card talks about leadership, authority and the self-discipline required to achieve both of them.
It’s time for you to step up and take your place in the world. If that scares you, then harness the energy of the Crook and Flail. You’re ready, otherwise, it wouldn’t have appeared for you in this position.
It also implies authority within the home, club or team and its appearance refers to worldly status. Is it time that you set more boundaries? Or is it time for you to show the world what you are made of?
If the Crook and Flail card appears in this position in your reading, usually it’s because you are asking about some sort of leadership or authority issue. If you are wondering how to achieve the outcome you want – Crook and Flail points at self-discipline. 
It’s a very ‘grown-up’ energy in that there’s not much room for fun with this card. Just a ‘knuckle down, get it done’ kind of vibe.
