Temperance card is often interpreted as symbolizing the blending or synthesis of opposites.

Some Jungians say that Temperance represents the unconscious, which can guide us, they contend, to a deeper understanding of ourselves. The one foot on the land, the other in the water, represents the unification of the external and internal, conscious and unconscious, realms.

Under these approaches, when Temperance appears, it is a warning or invitation to be prepared for a confrontation with the deepest questions of who we are, who we think we are, and who we will become.

E agora de repente pensei: terei de estar mais atenta aos sonhos?

Very often spiritual seekers will pull this card as a promise of new growth after they've experienced spiritual "drought." [Ó fixe, vou ter Fé - sarcastic mode on, para os que não notaram.]

Temperance is a mixture of two elements that produce a third, more powerful, more effective force.

To use one of Thirteen's examples, hydrogen and oxygen create water. Or, Imagination and Skill, Art. Practice and Determination, Success. Time and Energy, Patience. Etc.
