The Sun Tarot

How is the Sun in the Tarot Card Depicted

A naked child riding a white horse without a saddle appears at the forefront. He has a crown of flowers on his head and holds an orange banner in his left hand. At his back is a grey brick wall upon which sprouts 4 sunflowers and overhead, the blue sky is dominated by the circular, serene face of a yellow sun.

What Does the Sun Mean in the Tarot Card

An image of fulfillment, freedom, and joy, the Sun indicates that you would be able to achieve all your goals.

The child playing happily stands for the pristine bliss our spirit enjoys when we are an expression of our pure selves ‑ nakedness being the proof that he has all the innocence of childhood. Even the horse, an emblem of strength is without a saddle, thereby suggesting how we can exercise all our powers by perfectly controlling both realms of consciousness and subconsciousness.

The straight rays of the sun stand for action, while the wavy rays embody vibration. The 4 sunflowers at the back, representing the 4 suits of the Minor Arcana highlight how the spirit attains vitality and vigor under the nourishing rays of the sun.

Reversed Sun Tarot Meaning

Symbolism: Temporary depression, lack of success

Interpretation: In an upside down position, the card indicates that your path towards a rewarding situation may be strewn with obstacles such that its positive aspects would be difficult to get hold of.

Nonetheless, the card urges you to remain focused and put in more effort since all negative aspects are temporary.
