If I defined Strength with only a few words, those would be silent resistance.
Strength can be assimilated to Courage in the larger context of the seven virtues, one of the four Cardinal virtues among Prudence, Justice and Temperance. In the enumeration of moral virtues, Courage was re-placed by Fortitude. Patience and perseverance are attributes related to Fortitude. On the other hand, Strength also can be associated with Chastity as opposed to Lust, one of the seven deadly sins.
Some of these characteristics are complementary, and others are interconnected or overlapping each other. Subsequently, their association with the Major Arcana cards is arguable. Both the attributes, names and the iconography of these archetypes have changed over time. Especially studying the decks of Etteilla, one may find disturbing discrepancies. Nothing is easy and straightforward as one may believe.
