Temperance
The picture · Bright face · Shadow · Way through
Every card has four faces: what the picture shows, the bright face it turns when the situation supports it, the shadow when the same root is overdone or stuck, and the way through that the picture itself draws.
An angel pours water between two cups, one foot on land, one in the stream
Recovery found by mixing and measuring
Lukewarm compromise, neither one thing nor the other
Poured little by little, nothing spills
As your card of the day
If Temperance is the first card you draw today, the day leans toward “Recovery found by mixing and measuring”. When it tips toward “Lukewarm compromise, neither one thing nor the other”, remember the way the picture draws: Poured little by little, nothing spills.

Auspira is for entertainment and self-reflection. The cards are a mirror that shows the present from another angle; they do not predict the future and are no substitute for medical, legal, financial, or psychological advice.
