Pumpkin Carving

One of my absolute favorite things about Halloween is carving pumpkins. I don't know why, but ever since I was a kid I've always just adored it. So, here are pictures from tonight's pumpkin carving fun! The little boy is my best friend's son, his name is Devin. The blond is my best friend, Amanda and well, the other person is me! :) Enjoy!

You are Strength

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.
