Temperance Meanings And Description

The term Temperance comes from Latin and means mix, blend or create harmony. In most Tarot card pictures, the Angel on the Temperance card is mixing fluid from one goblet to another to create something new. Time is also connected to Temperance; in time, all wounds are healed and all lessons are learned.

Appearing in other cards such as the Hierophant , the Chariot and the Lovers , Temperance shows the blending of two opposites to create a new whole. With Temperance, it is not just a theme of blending opposites but the balance that this creates.

Temperance Upright Meaning

The meaning of Temperance is strongly connected to balance and harmony.

Disputes will be resolved, relationships renewed and problems sorted to everyone's benefit.

Temperance Reverse

Temperance Reversed Meaning

Arguments and misunderstandings abound when Temperance is reversed. It doesn't seem to matter what you try, life is out of balance and harmony is absent. With Temperance reversed, it may seem like there is not enough time to get things done. Sometimes it can show you that spreading yourself too thin is dividing your energy and stopping you from accomplishing things.

Emotions run high and at work or home, you feel unnecessary competition spurring you on.
