Strength
Introduction: Strength indicates the importance of mind
over matter, and reminds you to focus on what you do want rather than
what you don't want in your life. Its main point is that you have the
ability to harness your thoughts and to use them for your - and
everyone else's - highest good. Not only do you have the ability; you
have the responsibility. So conquer your fears, control your impulses,
and never lose patience with yourself or what you are doing.
General: It's important now for you to make time to
meditate and contemplate and spend some time alone even if you are in a
committed relationship and have nineteen children! Do not allow yourself
to spend time in preoccupation and fear. Outward things will be going
all right but what is of the most paramount importance is keeping your
head on straight.
Work: Work should be going well. If you're looking
for work, know that you have the wherewithal and the skillset to find
it. If you're already employed, and there is room for upward mobility,
don't hesitate to negotiate for what you're worth. You might be
surprised at the positive reception that you get. If there's not room
for a raise or promotion where you are now, give serious thought to
finding something where there is this possibility, or consider what it
would take for you to strike out on your own business-wise. You may have
more options than you typically think possible.
Love: Love should be going very well - if you're
committed, this is very likely to be a strong relationship that is
mutually supportive and beneficial. If you're looking for someone, this
is a much better-than-average time to meet people. You should be in a
self-confident phase, so get out and mingle. You might be very
pleasantly surprised by how things work out.
Finances: Money should be in a positive cycle. Be
sure to save some, even if it's only a little, and even if you've been
doing without for quite some time and feel a desperate need to treat
yourself or the people that you care about. You may actually be getting
ready to purchase a home or other big-ticket item. Don't borrow more
than you can comfortably repay, of course.
Health: Your health and vitality should be strong
and robust now. This is a great time to correct bad habits if you need
to do so in order to protect your health. Starting with small goals like
a daily ten-minute walk could very well lead you to where you want to
be, which is even healthier and stronger than you're feeling right now.
Yes, it can get better!
Spirituality: This is likely to be a very spiritual
time for you even if you don't have anything close to a religious
belief. To be truly strong, you must pay attention to and develop each
leg of the triad we are made from: body, mind, and spirit. Be sure you
are spending time on all three. That's hardest to do when things are
difficult; if you receive this card when you are at a low point, know
that things are very likely to be looking up soon. This card is a
reminder that you are strong - probably stronger than you think.
