Upright Meaning

A warrior maiden stands beside her dragon, with the sun rising over one shoulder and the moon over the other, holding a heart in her right hand opposite the griffin. Strength is a card of determination and a call to compassionate resilience. Emotions may be perceived as weakness, but in this case they represent enormous strength. Use the energy that your heart gives you to overcome fear and follow your path. Assert your leadership in relationships and work, but remember to use emotions to find stability.

Reversed Meaning

The reversed Strength Arcana often indicates weakness. When difficult times come and inner strength leaves you, remember: your main support is self-confidence. Perhaps you have given free rein to your emotions and are now unable to cope with them, making you vulnerable. If you learn to control yourself and remain level-headed, then anxiety or anger will no longer be able to control your life.
