The Strength

 
VIII

  

 

   The Strength represents the inner courage and determination to overcome any difficult situation. It indicates that you must have patience and confidence while you trust in the desired outcome. Not giving up during time of frustration, is a must.

   When you see this card, you know that you need to use your maturity, trying not to change anything nor anyone by forcing the events outside in your environment, but rather, you want to focus primarily on yourself and your abilities to wisely and quietly influence others by standing your ground fully confident in who you are.

    If you think about it, you can slow down your emotions and quietly contemplate until you are able to see the big picture of the situation. From there, it will become easier to understand everyone's position including yours, so that you can move on constructively. 

   The Strength is asking also that you find the courage to help not just yourself, but others in need, by becoming the example of the values that you have in discussions.  Usually, weak people love to follow others with more confidence and courage, to survive difficulties. Through this card, you can easily become a leader in the situation. 

   This archetype is asking you mostly to suppress the animal instinct we all have deep inside, avoiding to feel rage, jealousy, and anger to attack and hurt others. Only if you practice patience and confidence in yourself, you will be able to be just like The Strength, a mature, wise individual, who knows how to handle any challenging situation. 

   It's important that you come to a point where you feel inner balance, compassion, and opening to understand also anther's point of view while you remain strong, but flexible at the same time, ready to negotiate with an open mind by dealing with the problem in front of you.
