Ranging from adolescents to young adults (and often a little older), Knights and Princes within the Tarot Court cards will almost certainly be male. As people they can be seen to be active, even the elementally passive Knights and Princes are the most active of their suit and element (Cups and Disks).
In keeping with that activity, as events and inner processes, they represent movement; and generally bringing things in or out of your life, from emigration to work relocation to a lover arriving or leaving your life.
