ความพอดี
Remember it
One foot on land, one in water, pouring without spilling: balance is patient blending.

Temperance is the art of mixing things until they're just right — not too much, not too little — like the angel gently pouring water between two cups. In a reading it usually says: slow down, adjust bit by bit, and find a middle path between two options or two people. Good results come from steadiness, not from rushing. The card is also linked to recovery and healing, both physical and emotional.
