Temperance

I just love the imagery in Temperance, the 14th card of the Major Arcana ❤️. This divine being is in perfect harmony with the elements. Fire, water, air, Earth – all appear to be fully impacting the dynamic in a beautiful way. The masculine and the feminine are also represented here and very much in unity. This being is in flow, having one foot in the water, while still being grounded.

If you have drawn this card in a spread, it indicates that you are doing healing work and coming into divine balance. You are learning to take what comes to you and handle it with grace and assuredness, as well as humility. Life’s path is clear and bright, and you are taking it in stride.

Now is a time for tranquility and peace. Being in flow means knowing when to interject and when to allow things to happen without your interference. Listen closely to your instincts, finding the middle path between overreaction and inactivity. You will know when your action is required, and when it is best to stand back.

Avoid extremes at this time – if you find yourself dealing with too much intensity, do some reflection on how you can be more at ease. Finding a balance can pertain to any aspect of your life now – relationships, career, health & wellness. If something feels out of sync, give it your attention now. Acting with patience and compassion, especially when it comes to yourself, will help things flow more naturally. Listen to the voice of your highest and best self! Let go and let flow.

Temperance, drawn in reverse, can mean that you may be living in excess or disharmony and have not yet faced the possibility that something needs to change. Consider that continuing in imbalance will not serve your highest good; chances are good that you know where this applies. If it is not obvious where the imbalance is, it would be wise at this time to speak to a friend, mentor or healer for their insights. While big changes may be needed to bring your life back into harmony, you will not regret the struggle once you see the results!❤️
