Strength VIII
Winner of Competition #4 in the Faerie World
Tarot Card Competition
My entry for the Faerie World Tarot card contest. Thought it seemed like a bit of fun :)
The meaning behind the Strength card:
The design of this card is fairly constant across tarot decks. The key characters are that of a woman and a lion, with the woman looking calm and gentle, yet dominant over the lion.
It can be a reminder not to despair or give up. You have the inner strength to endure and triumph. If you are pushing too hard, you need to withdraw for the moment and be patient. If other people or circumstances are driving you crazy, remember the strength that comes with love and forbearance. These will see you through the hardest moments.
This card represents the kind of strength that comes from a generous loving heart and unconditional love. You have the courage of your convictions and you will triumph over hatred and enemies.

Dear one…
I have found this gem looking for wonderful art to invite to the group
And you have made a great work with it
She is resting…no struggle. The lion tamed, more a companion than a rival with her spirituality. Flesh know, instinct recognized and perfectly used…she is light and strong as the butterfly’s wings
Would you like to subbmitt it to Tarot: Map of Consciousness
Have a hug!
Rosa
myoriginalsin replied
