Open Wide Kitty!

Strength is almost always depicted showing a woman taming a lion. It is a very peaceful serene picture. There is no fear or aggression on either side. The woman in the card is wearing a white robe which symbolizes purity and a spiritual element. She is not forcing the lion but rather coaxing it. The lion’s tongue is sticking out as if to give her a lick and letting her know he is willing to work with her. Above her head is the infinity symbol showing that unlimited patience and willpower is hers. The garland worn around her waist and her head symbolizes good luck and intuition. Strength is typically known as the card of female inner strength. When it comes up in a reading it shows that you do indeed have what it takes to succeed and succeed you will in time. You are being asked to have patience with the process. The green grass shows the healing of the situation as well.

For using in meditation I would suggest a green candle because the color green symbolizes healing and love. Love and time will heal the situation. Jade would be a good stone to use as well as the moonstone which gives a sense of peace. Focus on patience and belief that things will work out when meditating on this card. Believe that you have the ability to make it through any difficulties with success.
