“That which was hidden is now revealed—clarity, joy, and truth shine upon you.”
The Sun in Tarot: A Guide to Joy, Vitality, and Enlightenment
The Sun is a card of clarity, success, and pure illumination. It represents the moment when everything becomes clear, and we step into the fullness of our power. Unlike the mystery of The Moon, The Sun offers certainty, energy, and unshakable confidence.
Traditionally, The Sun is depicted as a golden orb shining over a child riding a white horse, symbolizing innocence, rebirth, and divine joy. The sunflowers in the background represent growth and alignment with the cosmic flow. This card reminds us that truth is liberating, and light dissolves all shadows.
If you pull The Sun, it’s a sign that positivity, success, and clarity are illuminating your path—embrace this moment fully!
Ask yourself:
- Am I allowing myself to shine in my full truth?
- What areas of my life are now becoming clear?
- How can I embody more joy and confidence?
