VIII The Warrior (Strength)
The Warrior (Strength) signifies inner strength, standing securely with yourself, experiences influencing your role in the environment, knowing your strength, and determination. You know what exists and what you should do, as well as an awareness of what you can do. You may let the rest be or fight to absorb it. You have strong motivation because you know what you want and believe you can achieve it.
Strength and courage. Strong motivation. Control over situations and emotions. Power and balance.
Weak and timid. Poor self-discipline. Unmotivated.
Love
In balance with yourself, gives and takes, creates development based on personal values. You probably have to reconsider, pause, and ask yourself how much you are prepared to invest. Do you dare to give it your all? If so, show it; if not, build your romantic dreams with someone else because this relationship requires a pair—all or nothing, now or never. Strength is a more solitary card. But there is a sense of security, a presence, which contributes to a sense of security in feelings. A presence that brings love.
Past
You have accomplished something, grown big and strong, and reached your goals. You know who you are and what opportunities you have. You have stronger footing, more capacity, and inner joy that is now with you.
You have lost your motivation and power to let yourself be controlled by others. You may be lost with your identity in conflict. Beaten.
Present
You have met your requirements and wishes. You are motivated, stable, and confident and know exactly what to do. You have all (or most) of your assets with you. You grow in your self-confidence and feel your inner strength and capacity.
You don't dare to trust yourself, or others, spinning around, stressing yourself out, nothing gets done of what was important. Allows you to be deceived or abused.
Future
What you worked for is now in full bloom; what you worked hard for now becomes to your advantage. You are entering your development phase, where you are in the first place. You are in safety and in silence, no hustle and bustle.
You will conflict with yourself and/or your surroundings and become weak, powerless, and lost.
Personality and Soul
You are a person with much strength and courage. You have great self-confidence, and there isn't much that can stop you once you get started. However, you're not so stubborn that you continue with pointless projects; you finish them in the best way and then move on to the next project. You are kind but determined, happy and pleasant, with a strong sense of responsibility. You exude an authority that makes people look up to you. You quickly take care of others and make everything work. Your heart is large, and you always stand by your word.
Yearly lesson
A year of stubbornness, will, and inner strength. How true are you to your ideas and whims? Here, it would help if you used your self-confidence and self-assurance and believed in what you do and your actions, regardless of what others think. Often, the surroundings notice that you are so sure of yourself during such a year that you are left alone. However, you may feel a bit lonely, and it's not surprising when others might be scared because you are so sure of yourself.
