Overview
Moving through the realm of Strength, we are emboldened by our internal reserves to take on a power we fear may be greater than ourselves. In truth, Strength shows us that we are stronger than we think and braver than we could ever imagine.
Imagery
In the image we see a golden lemniscate hovering above a feminine individual's head, a symbol of potentially infinite divine power. This person has everything they need to bring peace and safety to this scene without harming the lion or being attacked by the animal.
Symbolism and Guidance
The lion understands the power the human holds and submits to it willingly, without requiring the use of brute force or even a battle of wills. The lion knows that the individual's intellect and spiritual prowess will yield what is best for both of them. It's no surprise that Strength encourages absolute trust in yourself and your ability to do whatever is necessary to get what you want. Lean in and fear not!
Visual Description
A serene woman in a flowing red dress gently holds the head of a large pink lion, her hands placed at the lion's cheeks as if calming it. A wreath of small yellow flowers crowns her head and a yellow infinity symbol floats above. The lion has a stylized, spiraled yellow mane and an expressive face with one eye open. The scene is framed in soft pinks, reds and creams, with scattered flowers on the ground and the title VIII LA FORCE printed at the card's base.
