What challenges are hidden between you and your partner?

September 19. Today, the card "Strength" fell out for you

The Strength card sees right through the veneer of your relationship. It spots a certain something. Is it a conflict? Incompatibility? No, it's an unexpressed vulnerability. The presence of this card is a strong indication that there is a real struggle at the core of your bond - in the form of a fear of being seen and reluctance to trust fully. Your pride and your need for connection are in constant battle, causing you to prioritize courage over authenticity. 

In love, the Strength card uncovers a bond of two strong people. Too strong, to be honest. You two work hard to keep the peace, suppressing the desire to lean on each other, lest you feel like a burden. The issue between the two of you has nothing to do with a lack of love. There is just a surplus of self-reliance there. Perhaps it’s time you softened your walls? After all, tender vulnerability fosters unbreakable bonds. 

As a feeling, the Strength utters a quiet hum of tension. This tension stems from restraint. There are words that are swallowed, tears blinked back, and the desire to reach out fighting the instinct to self-protect. You are full of admiration mixed with loneliness. Yes, you love their strength. But you yearn for their fragility. Dare to be delicate. Let your egos rest for a while. 

When it comes to yes or no, the Strength card nods. “It’s a yes. The challenge is real. But so is your capacity to overcome it.” Don’t see this revelation as a verdict against your relationship. See it as an invitation to transform strength into softness. This will become your greatest bond.
