TAROVERIE / COLORS

Tarot colors

Color is one part of a card’s visual language. Find the color first, then read the object, gesture and surrounding scene.

These nine entries compare colors in the Rider–Waite–Smith deck. Associations vary by deck, tradition and printing; a color alone is not a prediction.

LION

Lion

Strength · Care

In Strength, the woman touches the lion’s mouth without a sword or whip. Their bodily relationship deserves more attention than an isolated label of power.

Size, teeth, and movement resist reducing the lion to an impulse to eliminate. The scene can prompt reflection on intense force, but offers neither animal-handling instruction nor a diagnosis of anger.

Strength

In Strength, the woman touches the lion’s mouth without a sword or whip. Their bodily relationship deserves more attention than an isolated label of power. The figure bends while the lion extends horizontally. Contact, direction, and scale organize the encounter. Gentle movement need not lack boundaries, and cannot resolve every conflict.

Hotspots come from this published card; never transplanted onto another deck.
