The image on this card is a girl who has subjugated a lion to her will. Thus, the card symbolizes not brute physical strength, but moral superiority. Strength speaks of complete confidence in one’s rightness, moral superiority, energy, spiritual independence, and determination.
However, the appearance of this card should not be taken as a hint of intervention or the will of higher powers. Its nature is earthly, the card symbolizes the power that can be perceived through instinct or intuition. May imply willpower or creative energy.
The force denies the primitive containment of its “black sides,” calling to deal with them once and for all with the help of high moral aspirations. It can also indicate the need to give up something in order to gain something better.Inverted position
A card in an inverted position indicates excessive use of force (and brute force), aggression, and stubborn assertiveness. He points to a person who is weak in reality, unable to achieve harmony in his own soul, unable to restrain the manifestations of his base instincts.
Sometimes the inverted Force indicates that a certain third party is interfering in a person’s destiny in an undesirable way, and he is unwilling or unable to resist this, although such interference destroys all his plans. It may be the other way around - the fortuneteller himself cannot achieve the goal because he interferes too actively in the affairs of others, he really wants everything to be done according to his criteria.
Strength: Meaning in Love and Relationships
Straight positionIn the upright position, Strength speaks of a passionate, sensual, emotionally rich relationship. The card can also speak of sexual passion or the possibility of its manifestation in the very near future.
If such a card falls out to a family man or someone who is already in a permanent relationship, this means that the romance is not in danger of “breaking into everyday life.” Strength shows that this represents a relationship in which fire and romance will always remain.
An upright Arcanum can indicate that a declaration of love will finally follow, which for some reason has been postponed for a long time, or foreshadow a particularly successful romantic date. It also has a not very pleasant meaning - it can symbolize jealousy.Inverted position
Strength in the reversed position symbolizes a romance similar to a third-rate Mexican TV series - with excessive emotions, artificial drama, noisy discord and other extremes. It speaks of instability, instability of relationships, the desire of one partner to force the partner to act in his own way at all costs, the inability to compromise, negotiate and act together.
Sometimes the inverted Strength in fortune telling about relationships hints at deception on the part of the partner - false promises of marriage or some other steps. It can also indicate that the fortuneteller himself is not sure of his feelings and has not yet decided what he actually needs. It is also possible to indicate existing or upcoming problems in the intimate sphere.
Power: Meaning in situation and issue
Straight positionIn any case, the card foreshadows success, which a person will owe to his own qualities and efforts. So, if you were fortune-telling about a career, Strength indicates that the fortuneteller is creative in relation to his work. He will achieve success, although this success will not necessarily be expressed in receiving a high position or a salary increase. Rather, it will simply be a very good result of actions. But the card can also promise material gain - it says that a person can achieve such a goal, he just needs to formulate it for himself.
If we were talking about health, there is no need to worry - Strength speaks of a surge of vital energy.
If a question was asked about some problem, the card should be interpreted as advice to bravely confront troubles and fight them. A person will have enough strength to do this, and the problem will be solved.
Inverted positionDepending on the situation being predicted, the inverted Strength may indicate quarrelsomeness, despotism, lack of one’s own opinion, and abuse of the problems of others. The card may also indicate that the fortuneteller’s problems are explained by strict outside control over all his actions and the lack of his own will.
In some cases, the inverted Power indicates that the fortuneteller cannot solve his problems due to the fact that he does not really take on it, retreats in the face of difficulties, and lets things take their course.
In many cases, the inverted Force warns that the problem cannot be solved roughly, “head-on.” Aggression is unacceptable; it is what causes the problem and can only aggravate it.
In matters of health, inverted Strength can indicate a decline in immunity or an exacerbation of a chronic disease.
Strength: The meaning of the card of the day
As a card of the day, Strength symbolizes passion and success in endeavors. She recommends putting your talents to work or getting active on a personal level. On the day on which such a card falls, there will be enough strength for everything.
If any problems and obstacles arise, there is no need to be afraid. They will be surmountable, but we must act without aggression, but decisively, not be afraid and launch a counterattack. Then all undertakings will definitely end successfully, and the enemy will be forced to capitulate.
The card recommends not to be afraid of problems and “black streaks” in life. You need to do any business with complete dedication, be open and sincere with dear people, without trying to play some tricky politics with them. It is better to formulate your goals clearly and unambiguously. Once a decision is made, it must be carried out, no matter how difficult it is.
However, you should not rely on direct pressure and rudeness; the worst manifestations of your character must be controlled even in the worst situations. This behavior will definitely help you overcome an unfavorable period and achieve what you want.

When learning to tell fortunes, pay special attention to the lasso Strength. The meaning of Tarot is quite complex. The deck covers all manifestations of man, possible situations and energy currents that shape society. Our lasso is very complex. The Tarot card Strength combines many aspects that are revealed in an unusual way, depending on the nearest ones, which should be taken into account in order to avoid errors in predictions.
Description and inner meaning
Let's look at the Arcana Strength. The meaning of the Tarot is encrypted in what is shown in the picture. Many people do not study the thick books of the masters, but focus on it. By the way, they give quite successful forecasts. The card depicts a young beauty carefree playing with the terrible king of beasts - the lion. The animal completely submitted to her will, enchanted by the beauty and kindness of the girl. The pictures vary around this semantic plot. You've probably come across a slightly different lasso of Strength. The meaning of the Tarot does not change due to variations in design. The meaning of the card is that there is nothing in the world that weakness cannot cope with. It contains a special mechanism that allows you to curb any power. A baby who does not have physical strength wins hearts; a beautiful flower makes a rough warrior cry with delight and forget about the harshness of the battles in which he participated. In a practical sense, the lasso speaks of a person’s enormous potential. He is ready to fight for his positions. And he perceives the battle with optimism. This personality transforms negative emotions such as anger, fear, nervousness, jealousy into a positive direction. The Arcana Strength should be interpreted approximately in this way. The meaning of the Tarot for self-development is this: the personality has matured in order to realize and overcome internal negativity. A person understands the destructiveness of some of his aspirations and attitudes. He fights them bravely and successfully. His inner beast is almost conquered.
Impact on alignment (upright position)
Fortune telling with Tarot is quite a difficult matter. It is necessary to analyze the mass of information provided by the meaning of each lasso. If Strength is in the upright position, you should pay attention to the positions of the personalities involved in the situation. One of them is a very unusual, outstanding personality. This person has a positive influence on events. He's probably not trying to stand out or make a statement. But his quiet words are listened to with great respect. He tames anger, reconciles enemies. Power (Tarot) in the reading is perceived positively. It portends hope for a harmonious and favorable development of the situation. We can say that a person is going in the right direction. He was able to realize his own destiny and find the possibility of realizing it. That is, no matter what question is asked, the answer is quite optimistic. You need to listen to the wise advice of others, but trust your intuition. Naturally, the combination of Tarot in the layout also affects the forecast. But Strength softens negative cards. For example, the Tower next to this lasso does not foretell strong shocks. Rather, good friends will come to the rescue in trouble. The change will occur, but it will take the fortuneteller to a new, higher level.
The meaning of the inverted lasso Strength
This position of the card has two meanings. Firstly, it says that a person is ready to give up under the pressure of unfavorable circumstances. He lost faith in success. His potential was wasted in an unequal struggle. He was tired of the constant confrontation. The inverted Strength speaks about this. The meaning of the Tarot does not lose the positive characteristics of the direct lasso. The individual still has enough energy to pull himself together. You just need to redistribute it. Don't give up. Life seems like a brutal fight until you learn to enjoy the process. We are constantly overcoming something. Fatigue accumulates only when you perceive the process as hard work, and not as a chain of natural events. In a practical sense, the reversed Strength suggests that you should take a break. It should be used to analyze your perception of the world. There was a serious mistake made somewhere. It needs to be identified and the worldview adjusted. Strength, even when reversed, is not a negative lasso. It encourages a more thoughtful attitude to the issue, focusing on important points, to the detriment of secondary ones. There is no need to listen to gossipers or react to critics. They only lead you astray. You need to find the strength within yourself to achieve your goal. The path is not as far as it seems. Dismiss those who exaggerate problems, trust yourself.
(straight position)
A couple has every prospect of building a stable union if the Arcana Strength appears in the layout. Tarot views relationships as the mutual desire of individuals for harmony. Everything is important here: their intentions, assessment of the partner, the ability to respect and obey, lead and lead. Our lasso says that people correspond to each other in terms of personal strength. They do not allow any distortions, they keep pace, so to speak. These are mature, self-sufficient individuals striving for union. It is important for them to get a response and satisfy their partner. When you start reading Tarot, you need to perceive reality in a detached way. The person you love has flaws, just like you. They should be understood and accepted, and not tried to be ignored. Strength hints that passion predominates in the union. Lovers are able to show animal instincts, they are open, they have no forbidden areas or topics. However, they sometimes encounter conflict situations. Tenderness towards your partner helps to overcome them. If we are talking about a quarrel, then the recommendation of the Arcana Strength is this: do not be afraid of your weakness, trust your loved one. Your partner should do the same. Sincerely loving people are able to overcome any obstacles, even internal disagreements. You should trust the flow that quickly carries you to happiness. When studying relationships, the Tarot combination is negative: Strength - Tower. This is a sign of a serious scandal that will lead to a terrible loss.
The influence of the inverted lasso on relationships
The couple has an unenviable future; passion has left them, leaving them boredom. This is how the Arcana Strength should be perceived if fortune telling is performed for an old couple. Their relationship has run its course. People are no longer able to give anything to each other. The problem network should be determined from adjacent maps. If the Moon and one of the sevens appear nearby, it means that the deception has been revealed (or this will happen in the future). This event does not allow you to trust your partner anymore. He is perceived as a liar, an unworthy person. Love no longer gives birth to magical worlds. The feeling gradually dies, unable to cope with the troubles that have befallen people. Arcana Strength (Tarot) in a relationship reading leaves hope for change. If it appears in the “advice” position, it means you should get rid of boredom and shake yourself up. The couple needs to change something in the relationship. It's time to look at your partner with new eyes or in a new environment. It is recommended to go to a resort, go hiking, or go to the country. Reversed Strength says that everything can still be changed, but initiative is required from partners, a desire to breathe new life into the relationship. And none of them, unfortunately, have the spirit for this. What is needed here is a shake-up, a sea of pleasant impressions, and no one except the former lovers themselves is able to help. It’s bad when, next to the Arcana Strength in the Tarot layout, the Knight of Swords appears upside down. This is a sign of male weakness of the partner. He no longer desires love pleasures.
Impact on the business sector (direct position)
Arcana Strength indicates that a person has chosen the right professional field. He works with pleasure and achieves good results. In addition, the lasso Strength foreshadows reaching a higher level in the business that a person is currently engaged in. He has already gone beyond the boundaries of his current position. You need to strive for more. In a practical sense, this is a promotion, participation in a new promising project. The person for whom the layout is made is a professional. He should expand the scope of his powers and talents. If there are no negative cards, then there are no obstacles. If they exist, then you also should not give up without a fight. Strength indicates that a person has the energy to overcome all existing obstacles and avoid the emergence of new ones. In plans for material well-being, the lasso is a harbinger of a wonderful, fully financially secure period of life. The work will be well paid, and new sources of income will appear. If a Tarot reading is performed for a man, he should more actively implement his own projects. They are very promising and will bring good results. In general, the Force in the material plane recommends trusting your intuition. You should not listen to people who have achieved nothing in the professional field. They act out of envy. And the person himself moves exactly where he needs to in order to ensure a comfortable and prosperous future.
The meaning of inverted Strength in a work scenario
A person is caught in a vicious circle from which he cannot see a way out. Wrong decisions lead to troubles or losses. The personality reacts to this too emotionally and impulsively. This makes the situation even more complicated. New problems cause an even more nervous reaction. This leads to apathy, a reluctance to deal with a bunch of complexities, to put everything in its place. You need to stop and calm down. You shouldn’t create additional difficulties for yourself by building fences that will then have to be dismantled. There is a way out. He trusts professionalism. If you can’t figure it out on your own, seek advice from a wiser person. The neighboring lasso will point to it. For example, the King of any suit (in the upright position) hints that you have an influential friend who can clarify the situation indicated by the inverted lasso of Strength (Tarot). The combination with Death is also favorable. It is interpreted in a positive sense. You may not currently see a way out of the circle of troubles, but soon everything will change. There will be a ray of hope. It’s bad when an inverted Power falls next to a straight Tower. This is a sign of serious irreparable losses. You will have to start your professional activity from scratch. The acquired skills will not be needed in another place where you will be forced to go. Circumstances are beyond the fortuneteller's control. He will experience extreme stress.
Value in the health chart (upright position)
If you are overcome by illnesses, then the lasso Strength should be perceived positively. It suggests that a person is too pessimistic about reality and is inclined to paint it with black paints. He has enough strength to cope with illnesses and achieve the desired health. You need to communicate more with nature, trying to pacify your negative passions. Often the Tarot Arcana Strength indicates the presence of bad habits that have a bad effect on the body. It was not unknown microbes that ruined our health, but the person himself. He has every opportunity to correct the situation. It is necessary to analyze habits and preferences, identify and eliminate distortions. It's a simple matter, but it requires courage. Just as the girl on the card pacifies the lion, so the fortuneteller must conquer his passions. If we are talking about treatment methods, then refuse surgery for now. The disease can be overcome with medications in combination with moderate physical activity. The force recommends that the fortuneteller limit himself. This could be a reasonable diet, avoidance of excessive laziness, gluttony, and so on. The body needs respect for consciousness. You need to love yourself and try to give your body what is good for it.
The effect of an inverted lasso on health
It’s not very good if the card fell out in this position. This is a sign of lack of strength. The man is tired of the constant struggle with illnesses. He has no motivation, he is ready to give up. But you shouldn't do this. A little more - and the disease will be defeated. There is no need to resign yourself to the current state of affairs. On the contrary, we should resist more actively. You are on the right track. The treatment is chosen correctly, it is necessary to persistently and methodically follow the doctor’s recommendations. You will soon feel such desired changes. Reversed Strength indicates that a person lost heart too early. Everything works out for him, albeit slower than he would like. The presence of the Ace of Swords nearby indicates the need for surgical intervention. This radical method is the most optimal in this case, but the fortuneteller is afraid of it. You should pull yourself together and trust the doctors. If the question concerned the general state of health, then the inverted Strength speaks of excessive indulgence in negative aspirations. Do you abuse alcohol or smoke? Do you eat too much fatty or sweet foods? Card recommendation: pull yourself together and try to limit your desires. Otherwise, the disease cannot be avoided.
Map of the future
If the power fell in a straight position, then you should look confidently into tomorrow. You have enough energy to overcome obstacles and build happiness with your own hands. Ahead is a wonderful time for the full realization of abilities and talents. We need to work more actively. In addition, when you pull out Tarot cards for the future, the Force foretells internal changes. Your efforts in self-improvement will be crowned with success. Achieving personal maturity is the inner meaning of the lasso. You will have the opportunity to look deeper into the essence of events, to understand what was previously hidden. An inverted lasso has a different meaning. It encourages spiritual growth. A step back has been taken on the path of self-improvement. You were unable to learn the lesson, gave in under the pressure of circumstances, and slipped to the bottom of malice, jealousy, and resentment. All this needs to be rethought. It is necessary to understand what caused such a retreat in order to transform the negative into a positive direction. This is serious work, which the card suggests doing in the near future. And trust your own intuition more! There is nothing in life that a creative person cannot handle. And it all depends on who got the Arcana of Strength. The Tarot deck is sure that the fortuneteller has the energy for this, confirmed by an internal basis. And what to do depends on him. Tarot can give advice, but they won’t do anything for you. Therefore, it is necessary to shake off despondency and depression; they do not help build a wonderful world of harmony and prosperity. Namely, it is necessary for a person to feel satisfied with the current state of affairs. Work! And everything will definitely work out. Good luck!
A large field covered with green, fresh grass on the Arcana of Strength, as a symbol of life, prosperity and rebirth. Sunrise– this is the beginning of something new. Against this background we see a girl taming a lion. The girl is dressed in blue dress, denotes wisdom and cool reason. Golden hair color girls are the color of sun and energy. Above her head - Infinity sign, showing the great unlimited power that this seemingly defenseless and weak girl possesses.a lion often appears in the guise of the king of beasts, and therefore means a formidable opponent. But even the lion doesn't try to resist the girl, which means that she truly has enormous strength, capable of overcoming any life situation. Everything we see on the map speaks not only of a strength capable of defeating any external enemy, it is also a self-confident force capable of defeating the inner beast within itself. This is a symbol of our passions and fears, those qualities that make us their slaves and force us to turn away from the path of spiritual growth. It can be much more difficult to defeat your vicious desires and animal instincts than any external enemies.

Tarot Strength - meaning
The meaning of the Tarot card Strength in the upright position is positive. Arcanum has very strong energy, pushing a person to be decisive and courageous, to confront various life difficulties without fear. At the moment, fate is testing an individual's endurance; he needs to show courage and patience.
The appearance of the card in the layout indicates that a person’s knowledge and his inner core are now being tested for strength. Fate wants to know how ready you are to defend your principles and remain unshakable. He challenges, so it is impossible to show absent-mindedness, weakness of will, or fear now.
You shouldn’t feel sorry for yourself either, since your main goal is emotional maturity and achieving the next level of development. The individual needs to pacify not only the enemies who surround him, but also his internal demons. The Arcanum suggests that in order to achieve victory one should be unobtrusive, gentle, but undaunted.
Don't doubt your abilities, and only then will you achieve success. The meaning of the lasso may change slightly if it is surrounded by negative cards. This suggests that it is not worth actively showing your position in life, aggression and power. It is better to take time for self-knowledge and accumulation of energy, you will need it in the near future.
Do not use cruelty and violence to achieve your goal, otherwise the result will be negative. If you make the “Card of the Day” layout, then be sure that today everything will work out for you, you will be able to overcome any obstacles, luck will be on your side.
Inverted position
Power reversed in the Tarot does not have the most positive meaning. It can be regarded as a manifestation of powerlessness, vile weakness. The person has absolutely come to terms with the fact that he can’t do anything and doesn’t want anything anymore. Perhaps he suffered from the negative influence of stronger people. Such powerlessness can manifest itself in excellent negative aspects.
An individual may become more prone to despotism and tyranny, trying to humiliate those below him in order to somehow assert himself. Such a person does not know how to control himself or the situation; if he manages to gain power over someone, he begins to mock this individual in every possible way. But in the end, shame and failure still await the despot.
The appearance of the Strength Tarot card in an inverted position can indicate a person’s spinelessness, his uncertainty and inability to resist temptation. Such a person is often stupid, cowardly, constantly depressed and does not trust anyone. The result is a complete lack of harmony and implementation of the plans.
Tarot Strength - meaning in relationships
If we talk about relationships with people in general, then at the moment there is no product or disagreement in sight. You are filled with positive energy, which is necessary in order to communicate normally with other people, to fill relationships with vivid impressions and liveliness.
The Strength Tarot card has a slightly different meaning in a love relationship. The sexual aspect is very important for you at the moment. The union will be strong if the partners satisfy each other physically. If Justice, the Hermit, is next to the force, this indicates excessive control of the sexual sphere, which can subsequently lead to various problems.
The location of the Devil nearby indicates betrayal, the presence of many partners, and an attempt to manipulate your soulmate. It is worth noting that in the scenario for the relationship between a man and a woman, Strength is a card that largely enhances the meaning of neighboring arcana. In an inverted position, the card speaks of lust and uncontrollable passion.
Work and finance
The meaning of the Tarot Arcana Strength in a reading for a professional situation is quite positive. At the moment, you have a sufficient supply of energy to implement your plan. You have extraordinary talent and are able to realize yourself both in creativity and in other areas. The card suggests that the person has a motive. Something forces him to take risks.
For the sake of this something, an individual is ready to completely devote himself to solving some problem, working on a project. In order for everything to work out successfully, you need to concentrate as much as possible on one type of employment. If you don’t know whether to enter into an agreement with partners or not, then the card’s answer is positive. You will really need this kind of help.
If you are at a crossroads and cannot decide on your future profession, then focus on work that involves physical activity. Through hard work and developing your abilities, you can achieve financial wealth, but this will never be your main goal, since you are driven by higher motives.
Health status
The presence of the Strength card in the layout indicates that the person really has very good health, he has an almost inexhaustible supply of vital energy, and devotes a lot of time to sports.
If an individual is currently feeling unwell, the lasso assures that he will soon recover and fully restore his strength. At this point, in order to maintain your physical health, you need to overcome any fears.
If your mind is clear and your energy moves forward towards achievements, then you will not have significant health problems. In an inverted position, Strength speaks of significant problems, deterioration of well-being, and energy exhaustion.
