Herakles-Strength

The Myth

The labors of Herakles are all about self-mastery, mastery of the wild beasts within so that we may use their raw power in a wise and controlled manner.

The Message

This card is about strength, focus, discipline and wisdom, which is how we harness our own raw power and use it to create what we want in our lives. It is not enough to act on pure instinct. This is a time for focused strength, self-control, and discipline. Do whatever is necessary now to take back the power in your life.
