The Sun

“Be the reason someone smiles. Be the reason someone feels loved and believes in the goodness in people.”

The Sun is the reason for life on this planet earth. In tarot, the Sun card radiates positivity, joy, and optimism. It ends darkness and confusion and brings things in light to ensure clarity and transparency. The Sun symbolizes steadfastness and reliability. It does not matter how challenging circumstances might become for you or people turn against you, the period of turbulence and oppression will be over soon, and Sun will rise.

The bright shiny Sun in the sky gives birth to life and brightens it. It is the source of life for everything on earth. The sunflowers above the brick wall represent four elements (air, water, fire, and earth) and the four suits of minor arcana (swords, cups, pentacles, and wands). The sunflowers also symbolize happiness and hope. The child riding the horse is the expression of a happy connection with the inner spirit and childlike innocence. The white horse of the happy child implies the purity of heart and strength of mind. The red flag in his hand denotes celebrations, festivity, health, and vitality.

If you are looking for a straight ‘Yes’ in your reading, the appearance of this card reveals all favor, luck, happiness, and fulfillment. It indicates that the rough patch is finally over, and the better times are ahead. The Sun card is your reminder not to lose hope in any case. It supports you on your paths to success and encourages you to remember that even if you have to go the dark places, the Sun follows you everywhere.

When this card shows up in your draw, it indicates that at this moment, you only crave joy and pleasure in your life to recharge your batteries and engage in creative activities. You are tired of your dull routine and deceitful relationships and only want few quality moments with your loved ones to remember everything that makes you happy and celebrate your life.

The warm and radiating energy of the Sun heralds the ending of difficult times and speaks of pleasure and the possibility of fulfilling your desires. You might have faced many challenges in the past, but now everything is in your favor. People around you no longer doubt your capabilities. It is your time to rise, shine and prove that you are the best. You are bursting with joy, vitality, and enthusiasm to conquer new lands.

Reversed The Sun Meaning :

When the Sun card appears reversed in your reading, it suggests you to be conscious because being overly optimistic can also harm you. Do not get too busy in the hustle and bustle of life that you may forget to take time for your enjoyment and your loved ones. The reversed Sun suggests that you are struggling in life and seems tired of the long rocky path. Do not lose hope because it will only lead you towards pessimism and drain your energy. You can remove all the obstacles with a little more effort because good days are not far. Do not give up. Be optimistic and keep moving forward towards your goals.
