Courage, strength, fortitude. Power not arrested in the act of judgement, but passing on to further action, sometimes obstinacy.
This is a card of courage and energy. It represents both the Lion's hot, roaring energy, and the Maiden's steadfast will. The innocent Maiden is unafraid, undaunted, and indomitable. In some cards she opens the lion's mouth, in others she shuts it. Either way, she proves that inner strength is more powerful than raw physical strength. That forces can be controlled and used to score a victory is very close to the message of the Chariot, which might be why, in some decks, it is Justice that is card 8 instead of Strength. With strength you can control not only the situation, but yourself. It is a card about anger and impulse management, about creative answers, leadership and maintaining one's personal honor. It can also stand for a steadfast friend.
You are a Judge Empath, one who is a "truthsayer". You can tell truth from lies, good from evil. You do not tolerate wrong doing. You are a defender of the good and the innocent. You are kind and merciful but do not play foolish games. (from "The Book of Storms" by Jad Alexander at http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Empaths/)
Below is a video of Nigel Potter's song, No
More War (Upon The Green Earth) that is part of the Mantra Of Peace
music compilation. I constructed this video for Nigel because it's an
important song with a very popular sentiment that has been an anthem
for a very long time.
I hope you will watch and appreciate all of our efforts to bring about messages in peaceful artistic means.
Last week I picked up a lamp. It's a floor lamp.
It has Egyptian symbols on it , hanging from the
symbols it has 9 big beautiful crystal tear drops
hanging from the symbols. There are 3 tears of
Egyptian symbols with 3 tear drops to each tear.
Its quite amazing!
St. Peter's square
Here
you see a view of the piazza or plaza
at the Vatican, also known as St.
Peter's square.
The papal palace is on the right edge of the photo.
The
large eight-rayed sun wheel design, symbolic
of Ishtar, is immediately
noticeable. Look closely
in the center of the wheel. What you see there
is an obelisk, a genuine Egyptian obelisk shipped
from Heliopolis to
Rome by the Roman emperor
Caligula. The obelisk is, of course, a
phallic symbol,
* but it also was used in sun worship. Click on the
image to view a larger version of the same image.
* It is claimed that the word 'obelisk' literally means
Trees and fields clap their hands..Scripture of the day!!!
As the rain and the snow come down from heaven, and do not return to it without watering the earth and making it bud and flourish, so that it yields seed for the sower and bread for the eater, so is my word that goes out from my mouth: It will not return to me empty, but will accomplish what I desire and achieve the purpose for which I sent it. You will go out in joy and be led forth in peace; the mountains and hills will burst into song before you, and all the trees of the field will clap their hands. Isaiah 55:10-12 TNIV Bible
