Strength, tarot card in the Waite-Smith tradition

Strength

Major Arcana · 8

Upright

  • Courage
  • Gentleness
  • Patience
  • Self-control
General
True strength is quiet. It tames instincts and fears through patience rather than force.
Love & relationships
A relationship where flaws are accepted. Tenderness defuses tension.
Career & money
A challenge met with calm. Perseverance pays more than brute force. Finances handled with discipline.
Advice
Don't fight your fears, tame them. Gentleness is your best weapon.

Reversed

  • Self-doubt
  • Weakness
  • Impulsiveness
  • Domination
General
Courage is lacking, or instinct takes over. Fears take control, or one crushes others.
Love & relationships
Insecurity weighing on the couple, jealousy, or raw reactions.
Career & money
A lack of confidence facing a challenge, or overly harsh management. Costly impulses.
Advice
Regain your calm before reacting. Your inner strength is intact; reconnect with it.
