Divination: Major Arcana 14 - Temperance

Dear Reader,

This week's card is Temperance. Today's card comes again from the Deviant Moon Tarot deck. The angelic figure on the card is pouring liquid from one vessel into another whilst standing with one foot in water and one on dry land. This is a card of balancing difficult extremes with skill and finesse. It is also a card of self control and moderation. In the Minor Arcana, this card can be mirrored in the twos of all suits

In a direct orientation, Temperance speaks of one's managing disparate extremes in their life with skill and grace. It speaks of a person of a mild temperament and a strong sense of fairness. In the reversed orientation, Temperance warns of difficulty in seeking balance and equitable treatment. It warns of a person in a situation where they are torn between two extremes in their life to their detriment.

In the Fool's Journey, Temperance guides them through the passage of Death into new hope and new beginnings through maturity and grace.
