Strength
Strength (Mummy/Ka) emphasizes inner, spiritual strength represented by the Egyptian Ka—the eternal life force that exists apart from the physical body. The imagery of the mummy and the glowing chest symbolizes the soul essence and the dualistic relationship between body and spirit. The card underscores preservation of the inner self and the sustaining practices (offerings, mummification) that honor that life force. In divinatory terms it counsels embracing courage and inner will rather than succumbing to fear.

Story:
Ancient Egyptians believed that each person is born with a spiritual double that lived detached from the body and served as the life force. The deceased would join Ka for eternity. Ka would wander at night in search of a place to live and food to eat in the afterlife. If Ka were neglected, it would return to haunt the living. Therefore, Egyptians preserved the body through mummification and left offerings of food for sustenance. The mummy's chest is illuminated with a powerful glow, representing the soul essence. The swirling energy shows the dualistic nature between the physical body and the eternal spirit.
Divinatory meaning:
True strength comes from your internal spirit. We all carry a life force that gives us the will to survive and thrive. Rather than capitulating to fear, embrace your inner strength and courage.
