The Strength Card reflects confidence, inner strength, determination, commitment, patience, and intelligence.
It refers to the inner strength and the ability of the human spirit to overcome any obstacle. Your inner strength, good will and dedication are driving you. In trying to control others, you don’t rule; you are subtly controlling and compelling.
Without excessive outward force, you can control a situation.
The Strength card gives you faith in overcoming any rising worries, obstacles or doubts. It encourages you to persevere within yourself. It helps you to ‘ tame ‘ your animal instincts and raw emotions to constructively harness these initial responses.
It is common for emotions of frustration, rage, sorrow, guilt or shame to emerge. All the same, it’s what you do with these emotions that makes all the difference. This is not a time to act out in rage or hatred. Instead, approach your situation from a place of forgiveness, love and compassion. Find your inner strength.
When the Strength Card comes up in a reading it would suggest that your own inner strength is being put to the test. It asks you to calm down and not just react to a situation. It reassures you that no matter what is going on, no matter how dreadful the situation may be, you do have the inner-strength at your disposal to handle the situation and to survive through it.
Strength asks you to feel the fear and do it anyway. To put your doubts aside and show fortitude and courage. Others may be relying on you to bring them through a difficult time.

The Hermit shows that you’re taking a break from everyday life to take in your energy and attention to find the answers you’re searching for, deep within your soul.
Your deepest sense of truth and knowledge is within you. You’re going on a journey of self-discovery, led only by your inner wisdom and guiding light.
The Hermit invites you to retreat into your private world and experience a deep sense of seclusion and introspection.
Find your light, make it shine on your soul, and create your unique path. Take one step at a time from there.
When you’re at a point in your life and consider a new direction, the Hermit often appears.
You can begin to re-evaluate your personal goals and change your overall course through meditation, contemplation, and self-examination.

I refer to Justice as the “Cutting Through The Bullshit”card.
Traditionally, the Justice tarot card represents justice, fairness, truth and the law. You are held accountable and will be judged accordingly for your actions.
At it’s most general level, this is a card of karma. The Universe always notices those things we say and do.
Be fair in your dealings. It reminds us to study the facts and put aside our emotional response to what is going on when we make a decision. Be fair minded.
If you have behaved in accordance with your Higher Self, you’ll have nothing to worry about. However, if you haven’t, you will be called out and made to own up to your actions.
Be willing to take responsibility for your actions and be responsible for the consequences that follow.
If you are seeking justice, the Justice Card is a positive sign that it will finally be done. Once the decision is made, you have to accept it and move on; there are no retrials or second chances.
At its core, Justice is about the search for truth. Be prepared to explore what truth means to you. Be consciously aware of what you believe to be true, fair and ethical.

The Hanged Man tells you that sometimes, before you can take the next step, you have to put everything on hold. It’s time to pause and surrender.
This is your opportunity to accept these pauses and to surrender to what is – even if it is different from what you planned.
There is no need to rush. You do, however, need to do some soul-searching.
The Hanged Man is the card that suggests you take at look at things from a different perspective. Your inner self will soon speak to you.
This card prepares us for the great transition that is going to come next.
Take time away from your routine to connect with a new way of thinking and seeing.
When life is at a standstill, you can review the past and look forward to the future.
Take a passive approach, quiet your mind, reserve judgement. Simply watch and wait.
The Hanged Man tarot card represents letting go of the past and moving down a different path.
Change up your routine so you can start to shift your energy and flow more freely again. The Hanged Man is a card of change. Take some time away to renew our minds and spirits.
The main lesson of the Hanged Man is that we “control” by letting go – we “win” by surrendering. Acceptance and letting go are key if you ever want to move forward.
The Hanged Man is also about being ‘in limbo’. Patience. Waiting. You do not have all the information yet, and must wait and see what comes next.
In a yes or no question, the Hanged Man is a Maybe.

Perhaps the Death Card is the most dreaded and underestimated of all the cards in the Tarot deck. Most people freak out and fear that as soon as this card appears, they will immediately kneel over and die. Relax! One of the most optimistic cards in the deck can be the Death Card.
The Death card symbolizes the end of a major phase or aspect of your life that is no longer serving you, freeing up the possibility of something much more important and necessary. You must close one door to open another. Put the past behind you and part ways. Be ready to embrace new opportunities and possibilities.
Death is a sign that you need to learn to let go of unhealthy attachments in your life. With doing this, you can experience a fuller, more fulfilled life of deeper meaning and significance. This is a perfect card to break a bad habit or pattern of behavior. Purge the baggage that is getting in your way.
The Death card reversed brings you the opportunity to embrace change, rather than resist it. Say yes to change and see what wonderful opportunities present themselves to you.
You may also be experiencing personal transformation on a deep level. Allow yourself to release what no longer serves you and make space for the new to emerge in your life.
The reversed Death card also invites us to return to the lesson of the Hanged Man – a card of pause, suspension and putting things on hold. Even though we are experiencing heightened levels of uncertainty as more events are cancelled and restrictions put in place, we are being asked to see things from a new perspective and to find the opportunity in the pause.
Balance, Grounded, Moderation, Cooperation. Maintain and control your feelings. Temperance is the card to bring balance, flexibility, moderation and tolerance in your life. Moderation is necessary in maintaining harmony. You need to be tolerate and be able to cooperate with others. Maintain an even temperament and manage your emotions. Temperance advises you to take the middle route. Now is not the time to be extremely controversial or judgmental. Be the peacekeeper and take a rational approach in order to prevent any extremes. Listen to your inner voice. Let it lead you to the right result, and follow patiently.
Through this card addictions and self limiting beliefs are being addressed. The Devil card shows your darker side. It’s temptations that are leading you. You are being asked to take a hard look at yourself and ask yourself where in my life am I suffering from addictive behavior. Destructive powers prevent you from being the best version of yourself. You may be influenced by unhealthy attitudes, addictions, activities, modes of thought and friendships. You choose the direction of instant gratification with the Devil, even though it is at the cost of your long-term well-being. You’ve heard the expression “The Devil made me do it.” Deep down, you know it’s to your disadvantage, and you’re only doing yourself (and often others) a great deal of harm. You need to recognize the hold they have over you and the impact they have on your life. See this as an opportunity to be strong and outsmart the negative forces in your mind. Lead us not into temptation.
A card of “expect the unexpected” – massive change, upheaval, destruction and chaos. The Tower card shows a high tower nestled on top of the mountain. A lightning bolt strikes the the crown on the top which sets it ablaze. Flames are bursting in the windows and people are jumping out of the tower as an act of desperation.
It’s when something strikes in your life strikes and you are thrown out of your comfort zone and forced to confront change.
This change may be pleasant or unpleasant, but this all depends on your perception. It can indicate that you get a shock to the system you weren’t expecting – it’s not what that shock was but how you deal with it from now that is important.
Change must happen. The more you fight it the worse it becomes. Make a new start.
When the Tower card appears in a Tarot reading expect the unexpected – massive change, disruption, ruin, and confusion. Transition is here to tear things up, create chaos, and ruin all in its way.
But when it’s over, it’ll be for your highest good. Your world may collapse before you, as you realize you’ve built your life on unstable foundations – false assumptions, double-crossing, false beliefs, and so on.
But over time, you will come to see that your initial beliefs are based on a false understanding and that your new systems of values are more representative of reality.
The best way forward would be to allow this structure to self-destruct so that you can rebuild and re-focus. This devastation will trigger the emergence of new development and the transformation of your spirit.
You’ll become stronger, wiser and more resilient after a Tower experience as you develop a new life perspective that you didn’t even know existed.
These situations are needed for your personal growth and enlightenment, and even if you experience anxiety and pain throughout the process, truth and honesty will bring about a positive change.
The Tower in the reversed position suggests that you are undergoing a significant personal transformation and upheaval.
You’re instigating change and calling into question your fundamental belief systems, values, purpose, and meaning.
You may go through a spiritual awakening as you discover a new path. Your beliefs and opinions about important topics may change as you realize that you can no longer support old beliefs.
You may be in denial that change is occurring, or maybe you’re clinging to an old belief system, even if you know it’s no longer relevant or healthy for you.
Even though you probably don’t want to go through it, this challenging time will help you learn a valuable lesson and make progress in your life.
You are creating change and transformation so you can step into a new and evolved version of yourself.
Keywords: Optimism, Confidence, New Energy, Positive Change, Happiness, Faith, Hope
