Temperance
Upright:
Balance and harmony, inner peace
Reversed:
Emotional extremes, impulsive actions
Integration and unity of knowledge and action. The Temperance card shows water being poured back and forth between two cups, representing “material” and “spiritual,” striving to maintain balance between them. It reminds us that when facing various temptations, the most important thing is to control our desires. It does not symbolize happiness or success, but rather calmness and equilibrium.
