The Sun

The Sun card is a card of transformation and rebirth. It comes up to represent a time in our lives where we are emerging as a new person filled with optomism and healthy self expression. We have overcome problems and hurtful experiences of our past and feel ready to come back to ourselves and let our light shine in the world. It's possible that we have gone so far as to transform ourselves and our image entirely by sporting a new look that shows outwardly to others that we are confident and filled with the radiant energy of the sun. We have come through a difficult time perhaps, but now is the time to move forward filled up with enthusiasm for life. Things are finally going our way and we couldn't be happier. We have struggled inwardly and outwardly but what we have learned along the way, has helped us to understand who we truly are and where we are heading as the sun lights our way forward. We have gotten our life back so to speak and finally feel liberated! Achievements and success will be ours for the taking. When this card shows up in a reading for family or romance it denotes a happy marriage. A good card for health also. I have on occasion seen this card come up in a reading to indicate the birth of a child.

Reversed- we see an inability to see our way out of depressive conditions. We are feeling like a failure. Our fears and negative thinking are preventing us from bringing about much needed change. Our thinking is derailing our progress and we are feeling unfulfilled and off track. A marriage or union may be unsuccessful or unhealthy for us.
