The weather has taken a turn here and is finally feeling more like fall finally! Now if only I could make a dent in all the schoolwork piling up! But today we’re bundled up under the lovely blanket I knitted up last winter and we’re having a good strong cup of coffee to get today kicked off right!
Today’s card is another Major Arcana card! We’ve just a few pop up this month but there’s always room for more; the more the merrier!
Temperance is a card that comes later in the Tarot deck, near the end with The Tower and The Moon and The World. Temperance it self is a strange little word, meaning abstinence or self-restraint. The card Temperance means self-healing and finding the middle ground.
For today, we should focus on finding balance and the middle ground. Perhaps this means finding middle ground at work between opposing views on a project. Perhaps this means finding the middle ground within your own family. Perhaps this means finding the middle ground between politics (I mean, finding the middle ground, but not adhering to it; we have to meet some people halfway before they are willing to go all the way to our side). We should strive to understand multiple perspectives and use that to our advantage to learn more about others and to understand others. In understanding others and where they are coming from, we can learn how we are perceived and learn how to help others to perceive the world as it really is.
So far, we’ve made a sizable dent in the deck! Maybe once we get through this deck we can do another giveaway with a new deck! Let me know what you think in the comments!
