Temperance indicates a need to moderate our behavior. When this card comes up in a reading, we need to stop focusing on the external world and go within to understand our motivations. We need to resolve conflicts internally that appear to be unresolvable externally.
How to Read This Card Reversed
Reading a reversed Temperance card indicates operating from extremes; an example of this would be being either totally indifferent or totally committed. Another possibility is vacillating from one extreme to the other.
