Temperance
Introduction: Temperance is a card about balance, in
many ways, and relationships of all kinds. Friendships, family, romantic
partnerships, and work partnerships all need your attention. This is
also a card about alchemy or mixing and matching. You may have to try
several approaches to things before you find what is truly right for
you.
General: Although in general all your relationships
are likely to be going quite well, you may need to look at your deeper
personal issues and see if or how these are standing in your way. And if
they are, how to work through them and integrate them. The idea now is
to do what it takes to find balance, in yourself, in your relationships,
and with your goals and aspirations.
Work: Aim high, but don't have expectations of
yourself or others that you or they can't possibly meet. Do your work
with patience and with stamina and it will pay off for you in the long
run. Your accomplishments will not be overlooked.
Love: Often, before you can really have peace and
wisdom in your relationships, you need to have peace within yourself.
Look at what you feel guilty about, mistakes that you feel you've made
in your past. Then forgive yourself, and let them go. It's the only way
you can truly make progress.
Finances: There is likely to be a good balance
between what is going out and what is coming in. However, if you need to
increase or collect your earnings, you are going to have to ask for
what you deserve. Have courage and pride, and you will not fail.
Health: Balance and moderation is the key. Are you
eating well, sleeping well, playing and working enough, getting enough
exercise? Look at where you might be out of balance and then remedy
this. Moderation is definitely the way to good health right now.
Spirituality: This is an important time to meditate
and to listen to your inner voice for guidance, and if you need help, to
ask for it. Both from your higher self and from others.
