- Balance, moderation, patience
- Alchemy — turning one thing into another
- You’ve been patient enough, it’s time to start
In a reading: you’ve been patient long enough; start moving toward the goal you’ve been waiting on.
Temperance is about alchemy — turning one thing into another. What people miss is the path in the background leading to a crown, a path he could step onto and start walking right now. We think of temperance as patience, not rushing, but honestly there’s nothing left for him to wait on.
What I feel this card is really saying is: you’ve been patient enough. You’ve spent a long time trying to turn a situation around — now it’s time to actually start the journey toward it.
