Part 7 of the 7 Holy Virtues Series
Humility:The Virtue of Quiet Strength
In our final installment of our 7 Holy Virtues Series, this week we call upon the Spirit of Humility—the virtue of grace, perspective, and self-awareness.
Humility is not about diminishing yourself; it is about seeing yourself clearly—neither above nor below others, but as an equal piece of the whole. It is about embracing your strengths without arrogance and your flaws without shame.
In tarot, humility and inner wisdom are most closely linked to The Hermit.
This card represents self-reflection, seeking truth, and finding wisdom through solitude.
It reminds us that true knowledge comes from inner stillness, not external recognition.
It teaches that humility is a journey inward, an honest look at the self.
It warns against arrogance, ego, and mistaking pride for strength.
This week, as you call upon Humility, remember: wisdom is not loud. The strongest truths are found in quiet reflection.
True humility asks:
Can you acknowledge your gifts without seeking validation?
Can you learn without defensiveness and listen without pride?
Can you honor others without diminishing your own light?
If you, like me, have ever struggled with feeling the need to prove yourself, this invocation is for you. Humility is not self-erasure—it is the quiet confidence that comes from knowing who you are.
