From the Rohrig Tarot, the Seven of Wands; from the Master Tarot, the Moralist:
The Thoth meaning of the Seven of Wands is valor - being bold and daring because there is a personal meaning and purpose beneath one's action. The Moralist is a fellow who could care less about anyone's well-being, only that they follow the rules to the letter. I couldn't help but see the connection to military forces and the politicians that control them. The government might demand bravery and submission from their soldiers, but what happens when the war is over? Who looks after the men and women who suffer from substance abuse, PTSD, and other physical and mental illnesses? True valor, I think, is following our own integrity and truth, rather than being bullied by someone else.
True valor, on virtue founded strong, meets all events alike. ~David Mallet
