Strength

Moving on to the Strength Card.

Strength is about Self understanding, Patience and Self love. I see this a card that speaks to us about being patient with in a situation or perhaps it's asking us to be patient with ourselves. If it's within a situation involving another, then it's asking us to apply patience and understanding and react kindly in the face of problems. Strength asks us to analyse and shed light to fears and complexities,in order to bring them under control. It's important to understand why we do the things we do in order to bring about change. I see this card as about controlling anger as well. Perhaps we have a tendancy to react too swiftly sometimes with our words, when it would be best to keep quiet? It takes a great deal of strength and self control to be able to refrain from losing it in certain situations...lol. So we may be experiencing a period of growth that will lead us to a healthy self respect and self acceptance. By controling our emotions and shedding light on our fears and understanding the root causes of anxieties and behaviours can certainly lead to us feeling much better about who we are.

In Reverse- We do not understand ourselves or what pushes us to do the things we do. We have selfish tendancies and at the core lack self acceptance and self love.
Our fears and anxieties may be out of control.
We may be using pushy tactics and trying to force a situation. There are misunderstandings around a circumstance whether deliberate or otherwise.
Fighting and hatefulness are manifestations of someone who does not like themselves and destroys relationships.
Dangerous psychological problems.
