Temperanceas the Present

Temperance tarot card

"The answer is not more. The answer is balance."

Six quick picks first, then your reading

What this card is saying about now

You're being asked to stop swinging between extremes and find the blend. Temperance in the present invites moderation where you've been all-or-nothing, and patience where you've been rushing. One foot on land, one in water — both count.

On the card

An angel pouring overflowing glimmering liquid from cup to cup. Temperance speaks of balance, but more of a divine balance. Trust in your spirit guides for wisdom and commune with that which you don't understand

Upright
BalanceModerationPatienceHarmony

You have found balance in the middle of this chaotic world, a very rare moment indeed. Do not seek to add or remove too much from your life right now. Just channel the messages from the divine and enjoy being in harmony with the world around you

Reversed

Your world is chaotic, and some of that might be due to your own inability to find balance. Sometimes less is more, consider dropping a few of the balls you are juggling (especially the ones that always seem to roll away the furthest).

Its place in the deck.

Major ArcanaCard 14
One of the 22 Major Arcana. They point to the large themes and turning points in a life, not the day to day. When one comes up, the reading is about something bigger than this week.
StageThe turn inward
After the Fool, the Major Arcana run in three stages of seven: the outer world (1 to 7), the turn inward (8 to 14) and the return (15 to 21). This one is in the turn inward: the point where the tools that worked outside stop working.
