The Tarot Card Strength of Fortune is printed within the magical container of The Seed of Life on top, The Flower of Life beneath, a hexagram at the left, and a pentagram on the right. Together these symbols create a magical amulet to help manifest the powers and meaning of the Tarot Card it contains. In this case, Strength. 

Meaning of the Symbols:

The Seed of Life at the top: The Seed represents the sparking of all life, the beginning of creation, and the source of all matter and intention. It is there to remind you that in your evolution, you must pull from a higher power, not just your own mind and the experiences that are known to you. The Seed of Life represents the masculine force in creation - the place of single-pointed consciousness, overflowing love, focus, stillness, consistency, and intention. 

The Flower of Life at the Bottom: The Flower represents matter and the quantum world where intention shapes that matter. In the Western Mystery traditions, this place is referred to as the Prima Materia - the Primal Matter. It is there to remind you that in the process of creation, you must allow the energy of intention to flow through your physical body unfettered, to shape the quantum world. It is also symbolic of The Fool - as the circle is the number zero and the entire journey of the Tarot is the journey of the individual (the Fool / The self) through evolution. The Flower of Life represents the feminine force in creation - the place of infinite expression, interaction, relationship, evolution, change, and the dance of life and death.

The Hexagram: Represents the higher mind and consciousness - our natural psychic interplay with all creation. It is the macrocosm of creation. 

The Pentagram: Represents the physical body, the 5 senses, the emotional sense, and the microcosm of creation.

Together these symbols focus the power of the Tarot Card depicted in the center. In this case, Strength:

The Strength Tarot Card: A woman dressed in white stands alongside a lion in a green field. Her waist is adorned with a vine of red roses, and a crown of roses decorates her head. She is petting the lion softly and the lion is capitulating to her and softening. The woman has an infinity symbol above her head.  

The Strength card represents a significant stage of growth toward a state of purity as symbolized by the infinity symbol, white robe, and roses. The attainment is that of a deeply forged connection to the archetype of the Divine Feminine. To love, devotion, healing presence, maternal care, and the kind of touch that softens even the fiercest of lion hearts. It is called Strength because love in its pure form is the source of true power. 

But love isn’t well understood in our world. We tend to mistake love for attachment, projection, and self-sacrifice. It is none of these things. Love is a mystical state where we find the ability to be present, vulnerable, and infinitely intimate with another human being (as well as animals, plants, and nature overall). It is the kind of love offered by the sun - shining equally on everyone - be they Mother Theresa or Hitler. It is the kind of love that can be as present towards the shadow aspects of the human psyche as it is towards its light. 

Strength is also the ability to be humble in the face of somebody who you blame for wrongdoings - somebody who victimized you. Again, it is not self-sacrifice, so this is not an invitation to remain present with an abuser. It is the simple acknowledgment that true intimacy is the only thing that will ever heal our hearts. That feeling everything deeply and infinitely will lead us to the ultimate connection with nature, and the mystical nurturing of the Divine Mother. 

This kind of pure love grows from passionate devotion, commitment to growth, and the wisdom gained from it. The red roses decorating the woman tell us of this passion. Some call it the Passion of the Christ. A passion so strongly rooted in mystical awareness and the transcendence of dualistic thinking that it can break through any barrier to cast out demons and raise the dead. It can tame the lions of fear, violence, rage, lust, and other primordial drives. It is the kind of passionate, loving presence that heals these places from the inside out like the perfect mothering, illuminated presence. 

Association with Leo: The Strength tarot card is associated with the sign of Leo and represents the tremendous power wielded by compassion, kindness, and unconditional love. It represents channeling the light of our inner sun into the physical world; shining equally on everyone.

When to use the Strength card: There are times in our life when we are in deep need of healing love, nurturing presence, and care. Times, when we are sick of the inner critic, and sick of being blamed and shamed for wanting to be free of limitations. When we have a strong need to express our beautiful, inner-child nature. These are the times when The Strength card can support you. Meditating on the card will help you connect to a force of infinite presence that will remind you of what it is like to be calm, innocent, and pure. In addition, there are times in your life when anger, hatred, and lust seem to take over your mind. These are also times when invoking the energy of Strength can serve you.  

The Strength card is also here to support you when you can’t let go of past hurts. When you can’t see into another person’s innocent heart because of what they’ve done to you. But remember, the Strength card isn’t about forgiveness or re-victimizing yourself. It is about being able to be present in the infinite light of compassion. Even if sometimes that means shining your light from very far away. And that’s okay, because first, you must direct your newfound Strength toward yourself!
