This part iof the fool's journey is for the adult fool who is now facing life. This is usually us when we complete our adolescent phase of life and step into the real world. Now here there are certain lesson's that the fool isn't aware of and has to learn. These lessons can be in any order for any individual.
Strength-
In times of difficulty a soul certainly feels himself weak and delicate like the female strength. Female is represented in this card to show that the person is finding himself weak yet times are such that they have to be strong. A lion is showed handled with bare hands by this weak female. Which means though you feel weak you still have to face the current circumstances boldly.
Hermit-
The hermit with his lantern is on a path lonely, taking a step carefully one at a time. This shows that every soul passes through such a time in life when he is alone and yet has to take steps carefully based on his own instincts. The hermit has a lantern which shows him the way, this promises every soul that they will have help at hand. A light that will guide them during this dark phase (darkphase is suggested by the dark surroundings).
Wheel of Fortune-
This is the wheel of fortune that also is a part of everybody's llife, the wheel keeps rotating and so is the phases in one's life. At a point in life when you feel you are at the top then know that downfall is coming near, and when you are into a pit then also remember that a rise is forthcoming. Changes are a part of life and nothing in life stays steady and so no state in life remains steady for long neither happy state or sad state.
Justice-
The tough righteous card, justice with a female and her sword show that she is here to do justice to all. She has the scales, this is actually the justice of nature or law of karma at work. If you have good Karma's then you will have good judgement passed for you, and if bad the female doesn't spare anybody.
Hanged Man-
This situation is also a part of life where we find ourselves in this position where we can see everything happening yet do nothing. The happenings around us are usually unpleasant ones which we cannot tolerate yet we cannot do anything because we are ties up this way.
Death-
Practical death or death of a situation or phase in our life which usually is very difficult to accept and move on. But life has to move even after this and so this Death card teaches us to accept all the sudden, traumatical, abrupt changes and move on with the learning from it.
Temperance-
The immediate card after death showing a figure handling two cups carefully pouring liquid from one to another where he himself is balancing with one foot in water and earth.
This situation as we connect directly from death card says the imbalance death card bring into our lives, yet this card says balance your temperament which immediately comes after the death.
