Strength

Upright

Gentle mastery. The lion is tamed not by force but by love and steady presence. Courage, patience and compassion for your own wild nature.

Reversed

Self-doubt, raw emotion or force without heart. Return to gentleness; true strength does not need to shout.

Reflect

• Where in my life do I feel courage right now?
• What would change if I embraced compassion more fully?
• What is the gentlest next step this card suggests?
