The Strength card is not depicted through grandiose images of giants, but with a female character who, with her power of gentleness and no apparent physical effort, tames a beast. On a closer inspection, however, the garments the female figure is have much more to reveal. The red dress, synonymous with strength and vitality, is in fact partially covered by a blue cloak; this is the colour of intelligence and spirit. Similarly, the headgear is reminiscent in shape to the number eight (or the infinity symbol) that is the Magician, alluding to the mental supremacy over the matter. It is a simile of knowledge and intellect that can, through instinct, courage and inner strength, dominate the disorder and randomness of events. The feet of the Strength female figure are firmly on the ground, her headgear speaks of infinity and it is in this limitless space that the woman asserts her will.
