The Temperance Card Description
The Temperance card in tarot, depicts an Angel pouring water or some fluid from one cup to another, with incredible ease. The Angel appears to not spill a drop, yet it is so incredibly easy.

This Angel's wings are spread.
It wears a flower on it's head, with five petals.
