REVERSED: I need reinvigoration and self-care before i pursue my goals, or the animal within may become the animal without - Currently i can only ship to the U.S. and Canada, but i’m working on fixing that
More on Strength & the symbology of the pin:
I chose a werewolf to represent Strength because the classic Strength card depicts, among other things, a feminine figure taming a wild beast with persuasion rather than force. When drawn upright, she promises confidence, composure, and the ability to influence the chaotic with a prevailing calm; when reversed, she warns of the need to calm your inner turmoil before interacting with the world around you, because emotions you’ve repressed may come roaring out. I intended her to be a talisman for those of us (especially anxious introverts like me!) who need to be sure their inner strength is used to build, not to destroy. I like that when i wear this pin, people ask me about her–and it reminds me of what she means.
Tarot is always up to interpretation, and i realize some people might view her differently, but tarot is also personal, and so is art. If this card’s meaning rings true with you, then hi, my name is Cory, and we have something in common ❥
