Illustrations of the Strength Tarot Card from Rider Waite Tarot Deck
Tarot Symbol
There is a woman with a lemniscate over her head. There is also a lion present.
Tarot Story
The Fool feels arrogant and proud. He feels that he can win over his enemies very easily and has this hot passion in him that he can barely keep. At this point of time, he sees a maiden who is struggling with a lion. The Fool wanted to reach forward and help but sees that the maiden had gently, but firmly shut the lion’s mouth. The lion which had appeared so fierce and untamed then appears to be very gentle now.
Interested to know how the maiden managed to tame the lion, the Fool went up to the maiden. The maiden indicated that “will power” is a strong force and that any beast, no matter how strong, will back down before a superior will. The maiden looks at the Fool and tells the Fool that having impulses is not a wrong deed. However, it will be wrong to let the impulses control a person. The energy to control these impulses can make a person more superior.
Tarot meaning
The Strength tarot card is a card of courage and energy. It indicates to us that the inner strength is a more important and stronger power, as depicted by the maiden with her seemingly small outer strength but who has a strong willpower. The messages that this tarot card is trying to bring across is very similar to those of the Chariot card.
This tarot card assures the Querent that he or she can control not only the situation, but most importantly himself or herself. It is a wisely card about the importance of anger and impulse management. The most important message this tarot card tries to convey is not to give up. Have the courage to keep up with whatever you are doing till you succeed.
This is precisely the advice and comfort i need at this point of time.
