The Chariot reminds us, that despite the appearance of chaos around us - all is well if we are able to center ourselves and keep connected to our own personhood and inner being. None of us are given more than we can endure - as women, we often take on more than our own challenges and burdens and sometimes feel like we are carrying the whole world on our shoulders. We can find comfort in knowing that there are many of us - all caring, true, and ready to lend a helping hand. It is this courage and willingness to share and work towards peace, that will see this human race through the rough times.
