Okay, so I’ve been diving deep into tarot lately, and today I wanted to explore the “Temperance” card in the context of love readings. I’m no expert, but I find it all super fascinating, and I like to keep track of my experiments. So here’s what I did today!
Getting Started
First, I cleared my space. You know, lit some incense, made sure the cat wasn’t going to jump on the table. I shuffled my trusty Rider-Waite deck, really focusing on questions about love and relationships. I wasn’t looking for anything specific, more like “What do I need to know about Temperance in love right now?”
The Pull & First Impressions
I drew the Temperance card, which, duh, was the whole point. It shows this angel pouring water between two cups, right? My initial gut reaction was all about balance. Not too much, not too little, just finding that sweet spot. I jotted that down in my notebook.
Digging Deeper
I spent some time just staring at the card. I noticed the flowers, the path leading to the mountains in the background… It all felt very calm and deliberate. Then, I grabbed my favorite tarot book and read up on the traditional meanings. It talked a lot about blending opposites, finding harmony, patience – that kind of stuff.
My Love Reading Experiment
To make it practical, I decided to do a few mini-readings for myself, focusing on different aspects of love. Here’s a breakdown:
- For current relationship status: I interpreted Temperance as a reminder to stay grounded. Things are good, but it’s important to keep communicating and finding that balance between my needs and my partner’s.
- For potential future love: Temperance seemed to be saying, “Don’t rush!” It felt like a message about being patient, being open to different possibilities, and not forcing anything.
- For self-love: This was interesting. Temperance, to me, highlighted the need for self-compassion and finding inner balance. It was a nudge to be kind to myself and blend all the different parts of my personality.
What I Learned (So Far!)
So, after this little session, my big takeaway is that Temperance in love is all about mindful balance. I realized it’s not about suppressing anything, but about blending and harmonizing. I feel like it is more about a long-term perspective, creating a stable foundation.I am definately going to keep exploring, I think it is important for my own relationship.!
