Episode 14 - Temperance

Temperance, the Great Reconciler!  The Bringer Forth of Life!  Everything about Temperance is a paradox, starting with the name.  Is it to moderate and hold back, as in the alcohol-shunning era of temperance?  Or is it to strengthen by enduring opposite extremes, as one tempers a sword?   In this episode we explore how fire and water, the divine and the mundane, the sun and the moon come together in alchemical union.  We chase rainbows and we hunt for crowns, we consider hybrids and hermaphrodites and the 8, 9, and 10 of Swords.
