8 - Strength
The Fool journeys to Strength, and after the stress of The Chariot, our Fool realises a need for calmness in the face of fears. The inner beast that lies within us needs to be soothed, not rejected or battled with, and so he finds that being gentle with himself is a must. He sees the dangers in his life and how his reaction to them stems from within. He develops a quiet inner confidence to deal with his problems. Now is a time for mind over matter, a time to control instincts and urges so that energy is channelled towards a positive end. The Fool finds strength of mind and conquers any fears he may have.
Within Strength, we find that having control over our personalities and egos is worthwhile and is best done with a gentle and loving hand. When confronted with our problems, now is the time for calm, pure motives, and having zero fear of the problems and issues we are dealing with—a time to allow our self-confidence to shine through, not in a bolshy but in a serene manner.
Our inner beast can rear its head, and we may find it difficult to remain calm in the face of problems. Yet the need to soothe, accept, and control with a passive hand is very needed right now. If we allow our inner beast to roar, it can kill, destroy, and create havoc with those things in our lives that need love, care, and understanding, be that a real-life situation or something you’re dealing with from within.
To be strong, and to make sure that we are not controlled by what lies within us can require courage. Grace is needed; we benefit from focusing on the present and not allowing the fears within to act.
Now is a time for self-compassion; do not display what your inner, angry, scared, or frustrated self may wish to act on.
You can cope; you are far stronger than you think you are.

I returned to Pam for a reading this week after an amazingly accurate reading from her last year. She’s given me the insight that I simply couldn’t see on my own.I feel much calmer and much more grounded about this issue now.Pam thank you for your compassion and clarity and for sharing your gift!

I have been getting readings from Pam for years now regarding my family and professional life. She is always very helpful in interpreting the cards and helping me to understand difficult situations. She is honest about situations so I can learn to accept things as they are and helps me work through frustration I feel when situations aren't as I would like. Even when the news isn't wonderful she explains things to me in a very compassionate manner. She is my go to person for readings!

It is truly a blessing in life to have bumped into Pam and her work in clairvoyance and tarot. Her readings are uncanny but so deep. It will leave you amazed. My mouth was agape while I read through my own reading. She is very real and comforting even in my dark shadows I was glad she was able to see them and point my in a great direction. She reminded me of my light. Pam is a treasure. If you’re reading this wondering worth, yes her readings are worth every penny!

Thanks so much Pam. I honestly feel like you just said to me what I already knew in my heart (but haven't wanted to accept).
