Card : Strength
This card represents a woman holding in her hands a dog opening his mouth. This woman dominates the animal without any effort. We understand that she uses her mental and spiritual power, and not a physical brutal strength.
Strength is number eleven in the Tarot of Marseilles. The woman wears two main colours: red and blue. Red symbolizes force and vitality, when blue represents intelligence and spirit.
We notice that the woman is also wearing a big hat that refers to the predominance of spirit over substance.
