Description
Temperance is numbered 14 in the Major Arcana.
An angel is standing with one foot in the water and one on the ground, this represents a balance between being grounded and yet being in the flow. We can also interpret that the angel is testing the water with the foot, signifying patience.
The angel is pouring water from one cup to another cup, represents a realignment of energies, to look at your life and balance it out. The flow of water can also symbolize being in the flow state when you have balanced yourself.
The glow around the angel’s head indicates going back to the sense of purpose and meaning that you have, in doing what you want to do.
