Temperance

Economy, moderation and management are Waite's terms. An angel pours water between two cups, one foot on land and one in a pool. Nothing spills. The card points to careful mixing over time.

Use it when a budget, a workload or two sides of a family need balancing. Try small adjustments and check the results after a week. Give a little where it costs you little. Steady management rarely looks exciting, and it keeps most arrangements running.

Religious sects, disunion and competing interests fill Waite's reversed list. The useful part today is the clash of groups and loyalties that do not mix.

The cups are pouring unevenly. You may be overspending, overworking or trying to please two camps at once. Name the competing demands on paper. Then decide which gets less this month and tell the people concerned.
