The Strength General Description. Despite its ferociousness, the lion on the Strength Tarot card is tamed by a woman’s calming, loving energy. A lion symbolizes raw passion and desires, so the woman shows us that animal instinct and raw passion can be expressed positively with inner Strength and resilience. The lion is subdued and subtly controlled by her inner power, not force or coercion.
Over her head is a symbol of infinity, showing her infinite potential and wisdom, with a white dress and belt of flowers signifying her purity of spirit.
Overcome
The Strength card represents the ability to overcome challenges through the mastery of emotions. It’s similar to the Chariot in that it symbolizes overcoming challenges but usually illustrates inner challenges. When we confront our fears, doubts, and anxieties, we must overcome them.
Overcome
As your skills are excellent, you need to overcome your inner worries and believe in yourself to become brave and daring. Generally, this card indicates that you are overcoming your fears and anxieties. By mastering your emotions, patience, and compassion, you’ll gain a new sense of self-confidence. In addition to representing taming one’s emotions, Strength can also mean taming another’s wild ways.

Constructive
Strength encourages you to constructively channel your initial emotions, instincts, and gut reactions and ‘tame’ your animal instincts. It is natural to experience anger, rage, sadness, guilt, or shame in certain situations. However, how you handle these emotions determines how you behave.
You must be aware of your instincts and balance them with the greater good. Do not act out in rage or hatred at this time. Work with a therapist to devise coping strategies for what comes up. Forgiveness, love, and compassion are your best options at this point.
