Temprance

Temperance #14-Ruled by Sagittarius which is ruled by Jupiter- Fire Element

Temperance is a card of melding, blending, healing, a coming together. Temperance relates to internal energies.  Combining two opposites to create anew.   Often Temperance follows Death, so this allows for healing and creating balance after transformation.  Sagittarius carries the energy of the adventurer, freedom, education, philosophy.  Here we create the blending of knowledge, experience and internal wisdom.   Jupiter is the planet of expansion, growth and luck.  With Temperance one will often experience synchronicities.  The planet of Jupiter helps bring forth the synchronicities through luck and expanding ones vision.

The Tower

The Tower #16-Ruled by Mars- Fire Element

The Tower speaks of possible chaos, loss, a falling apart, ego destruction, yet The Tower also calls in clarity.  The lightning on The Tower card speaks of the power of destruction to create anew.  When lightning strikes it not only destroys but it fertilizes the earth for new growth.  This is the energy of the Tower, often sudden change.    Mars is the Red planet.  A planet of aggression, defense, power, and confidence.  Mars speaks of ambition and the act of assertion.  Working with Mars during Tower energy can help with protection, strength and confidence during a possible turbulent time.
