The Sun

The Sun Tarot Card

The Sun is probably the most positive card in the Tarot deck. It portrays good times, a sense of self esteem, vacations, good times ahead and a feeling of Spring fever. Where the Moon focuses on Mother, women in your life and the subconscious, the Sun can portray the Father, other males in your life and consciousness .

Often praise and recognition comes as you finally get your day in the Sun. The child can symbolize rebirth in the same way that dreaming of an Unknown Child shows a new and emerging side of you. This card is associated with the I Ching hexagram Increase which shows that after a period of decline, things are looking brighter and more hopeful.

In dreams, it is important to note whether it is day or night. Dreams of doing anything during daylight often show that you are becoming conscious of what you are exploring. Dreams that happen at night show information that is yet submerged in the unconscious. A realization may be dawning as you gain greater clarity about the path ahead. This card is a confirmation that what you have been hoping to achieve is on the horizon if not already present.

In relationships, the Sun can show an agreement or meeting of the minds as communication opens and feelings can be shared. In work, the Sun is associated with getting a promotion or an award. The Sun symbolizes gaining recognition or attention in some way. There is a lot of vitality in this card, which can suggest increased health and vigor.

The male virile energy in this card can describe assertiveness that is well received. There are probably more myths and stories associated with the Sun than any other natural phenomena. This is because of its life giving power.

The Sun rises and sets off a chain reaction of abundance. Each plant opens its tiny solar panels to take in the energy that begins a great carbon consumption cycle the world over. If you too rise like the Sun each day with a focus on just shining your abundance out into the world, you can recharge and renew your faith in the goodness of life each and every day.

All men and women would do well to develop the feminine aspect of sensitivity and introspection and the masculine traits of assertiveness. In dreams, the strangers that appear as the opposite sex can symbolize the Anima for a man and the Animus for a woman. When the Sun appears for a female, it can symbolize opening to the ability to provide for yourself and to assert your independence.

When the Sun appears, chances are everything that you hoped would happen is happening. The child is riding a horse, which can suggest the merging of spiritual ideas with everyday life. Everything should be coming into full bloom when the Sun appears.
