The traditional Rider Waite depiction of the Strength card features a woman wearing a white dress adorned with flowers, calmly holding the jaws of a lion. The woman is gentle, yet has dominance over the lion, having tamed the lion of its animalistic nature. There is an eternity sign over her head. She shows her bravery in holding the open jaws of the lion, showing control in the face of challenges. This can also point to taming one’s inner beast of passion, desire, and animalistic urges that if not checked, can lead to unfavorable outcomes. In the background lies a mountain and more greenery, which looks to be a tranquil setting.
In the Mystic Monday’s Tarot deck, the Strength card is depicted as a black and white tiger with stripes. The tiger is walking towards the viewer with a curled tail. White and black can represent the duality of strength, and the marks of the challenges we face leaving visible or invisible emotional scars and wounds that eventually heal. The setting dips in the center, representing hurdles that have been overcome. Two mountains lie in the background, with a sun ablaze and shining its rays.

General Strength Card Upright Meaning
Strength is not only a card of physical strength, but often points to your inner strength. It shows your growth and maturity in that you have been able to deal with challenging situations with compassion and patience. It is natural for humans to have animalistic instincts, and you have learned to tame the beast to become guided by a higher consciousness. Master your impulses and take responsibility for yourself and your actions. With this power of self-control, you will be able to approach your problems powerfully and gracefully. Courage and patience are both needed in facing your fears. Connecting your inner and outer strength is key to embodying this impenetrable, ferocious energy with finesse and prowess. Know that you have all the tools necessary to not only persevere, but thrive.
